Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Number of families __________Expenditure

______midpoint (x) ____Town A __Town B

21-30 __25.5____________3 _______2

31-40 __35.5____________61 ______14

41-50 __45.5___________132 _____ 20

51-60 __55.5__________ 153 ______27

61-70 __65.5__________ 140 ______ 28

71-80 __75.5___________ 51 _______ 7

81-90 __85.5___________ 2 _______ 2

The variability is the variance and standard deviation :

The variance (s):

√Σ(x - m)²/Σf(x)

Town A:

m = Σ(X * f(x)) / Σf ; Σf = 542

Σ x * f(x) = (25.5*3) + (35.5*61) + (45.5*132) + (55.5*153) + (65.5*140) + (75.5*51) + (85.5*2)

= 29931 / 542

= 55. 22

Σf(x - m)² / Σf - 1 = [3(25.5-55.22)^2 + 61(35.5-55.22)^2 + 132(45.5-55.22)^2 + 153(55.5-55.22)^2 + 140(65.5-55.22)^2 + 51(75.5-55.22)^2 + 2(85.5-55.22)^2] / 541

= 76458. 4928 / 541

Variance = 141.32808

Standard deviation = √variance

Standard deviation = √141.32808

Standard deviation = 11.89

TOWN B:

m = Σ(X * f(x)) / Σf ; Σf = 100

Σ x * f(x) = (25.5*2) + (35.5*14) + (45.5*20) + (55.5*27) + (65.5*28) + (75.5*7) + (85.5*2)

= 5490 / 100

= 54.90

Variance :

Σf(x - m)² / Σf - 1 = [2(25.5-54.90)^2 + 14(35.5-54.90)^2 + 20(45.5-54.90)^2 + 27(55.5-54.90)^2 + 28(65.5-54.90)^2 + 7(75.5-54.90)^2 + 2(85.5-54.90)^2] / 99

= 16764 / 99

= 169.33

Standard deviation = √variance

Standard deviation = √169.3333

Standard deviation = 13.013

From the result above, Town A has lesser variability than Town B due to the slightly lower variance and standard deviation values.

A counter top is 18 feet long and 3 feet wide. What is the area of the counter top in square meters? Use the conversion 1 foot =
podryga [215]

Answer:

Area of the counter top is 5.02\ m^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of the Counter top = 18 feet

Width of the counter top = 3 feet

We need to find the area of the counter top is square meter;

Solution:

Now we need to find the area of the counter top is square meter.

But given data is in feet so we will first convert feet into meters.

1 foot = 0.305 meter.

So 18 feet = Number of meters in 18 feet.

By Using Unitary method we get;

Number of meters in 18 feet = 18\times 0.305 = 5.49\ m

Length of the Counter top = 5.49 m

Also 3 feet = Number of meters in 3 feet.

Again Using Unitary method we get;

Number of meters in 3 feet = 3\times 0.305 = 0.915\ m

Width of the counter top = 0.915 m

Now we know that;

Area of the counter top can be calculated by multiplying Length of the counter top with width of the counter top.

framing in equation form we get;

Area of the counter top = 5.49\times 0.915 = 5.0233\ m^2

Rounding up to 2 decimals we get;

Area of the counter top =  5.02\ m^2

Hence Area of the counter top is 5.02\ m^2.

Dario buys applesauce for a family reunion. He needs 23 cups, and he buys them in packs of 6. How many packs does Dario need?
hodyreva [135]
He has to buy 4 packs. If you divide 23 by 6, you get 3.833 but you can’t buy a fraction of a pack so you have to round up and buy 4 packs. Hope this made sense; I can explain further if needed!

Find all values of x (if any) where the tangent line to the graph of the given equation is horizontal. HINT [The tangent line is
Nostrana [21]
By "y = −9x2 − 2x" I assume you meant  <span>y = −9x^2 − 2x (the "^" symbol represents exponentiation).

Let's find the first derivative of y with respect to x:  dy/dx = -18x - 2.  This is equivalent to the slope of the tangent line to the (parabolic) curve.  Now let this derivative (slope) = 0 and solve for the critical value:  -18x - 2 = 0, or
-18x = 2.  Solving for x,   x = -2/18,    or    x = -1/9.

When x = -1/9, y = -9(-1/9)^2 - 2(-1/9).  This simplifies to y = -9/9 + 2/9, or 
y = -7/9.

The only point at which the tangent to the curve is horiz. is (-1/9,-7/9).</span>
