$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
population&dead\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
302,000,000&894,700\\\\
100,000&d
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{302,000,000}{100,000}=\cfrac{894,700}{d}
\\\\\\
d=\cfrac{100,000\cdot 894,700}{302,000,000}$

Answer:

37.7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Measurements of Frankie's yard = 20ft x 32ft

He wants to build a path from one corner to another.

To find:

The length of path = ?

Solution:

Let us consider a rectangle $ABCD$ as shown in the attached image in the answer area.

We are given the two adjacent sides of a rectangle and we have to find diagonal of the rectangle.

To find the diagonal, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

We are given the base and perpendicular of the right angled triangle and we have to find the hypotenuse.

According to Pythagorean theorem:

$\text{Hypotenuse}^{2} = \text{Base}^{2} + \text{Perpendicular}^{2}$

$Diagonal = 20^2 + 32^2\\\Rightarrow Diagonal = 400 + 1024\\\Rightarrow Diagonal = \bold{37.7\ ft}$

Help me find Sample variance and standard deviation

AnnZ [28]

First, find the mean. You'll need it to compute the variance.

$\bar x=\displaystyle\frac15\sum_{i=1}^5x_i=\dfrac{21+10+6+7+11}5=11$

The variance of the sample is then computed with the formula

$s^2=\displaystyle\dfrac1{5-1}\sum_{i=1}^5(\bar x-x_i)^2=\dfrac{(21-11)^2+\cdots+(11-11)^2}4=\dfrac{71}2=35.5$

The standard deviation is the square root of the variance, so

$s=\sqrt{35.5}\approx5.958$
