The first answer, using a number line, is a good answer.
I have two other ways:
Way #1:
5 stones is more than 3 stones.
5 gallons is greater than 3 gallons.
5 pounds is greater than 3 pounds.
5 puppies is greater than 3 puppies.
5 hamburgers is greater than 2 hamburgers.
5 schoolbuses is greater than 3 schoolbuses.
We look around us, and we see that 5 of anything
is always greater than 3 of the same thing.
There's no reason that should change if the 'things' are eighths.
Way #2:
-- Get 2 friends to help you.
-- Take one good-size veggie pizza or coconut cream pie.
-- Carefully cut it up in eight (8) equal pieces.
Now each piece is 1/8 of the pie or the pizza.
-- Give 5 pieces (5/8) to the first friend.
Give 3 pieces (3/8) to the other friend.
-- Ask them to get together and agree on who has more.
7^6 = 117,649
7 x 7 x 7 x 7 x 7 x 7 = 117,649
Answer:
A.) The manager calculated mean and not standard deviation
B.) Standard deviation should be calculated with the use of formula.
Step-by-step explanation:
A.) The assumption that his customers do spend more than the national average is wrong because the standard deviation is not calculated and mean cannot be used as a substitute for standard deviation.
B.) Standard deviation tells us how value obtain from group measurement deviates from the average value or expected value of each item of observations.
When standard deviation is low, this show that the value is very close to the expected value or the average value.
If the national average value = $150 and average customer spends $160.
Deviation = 160 - 150 = 10
This is lower than $30
Or better still, the manager should make use of standard deviation formula. Which is the square root of variance.
