Mariah has a spinner that has 10 equal sections, each containing a different number from 1 to 10. Mariah determines about how ma

ny times the spinner will land on a number that is greater than 7 in 250 spins, and her work is shown below.
P(number greater than 7)= Numbers greater than 7/ Total number of sections times number of spins = 4/10 (250) = 100

What mistake did Mariah make, if any?

She wrote a 4 instead of a 3.

There are only 3 numbers that are greater than 7. They are 8, 9, and 10. Mariah must have include 7 in her list. That is how she got 4 instead of 3.

Answer and step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 numbers greater than 7 on this spinner:  8, 9 and 10.  Mariah wrote 4 instead of 3, which makes her probability higher.  

She should have:

3/10(250) = 750/10 = 75

What is the equation of the ellipse with foci at (5, 0), (-5, 0) and vertices (9, 0), (-9, 0)?
forsale [732]

Answer: \dfrac{x^2}{81}+\dfrac{y^2}{56}=1

Step-by-step explanation:

General equation of ellipse : \dfrac{x^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{b^2}

Given: Vertices of ellipse : (± 9,0)

Since the vertices are of the form (± a, 0).

i.e. a=9

Thus, the major axis is along x-axis.

Also, foci of the ellipse = (±5,0)

Since, foci is of the form (± c,0), i.e. c=5

Since

c^2=a^2-b^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ 5^2= 9^2-b^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ b^2=81-25\\\\\Rightarrow\ b^2=56

Equation of ellipse :

\dfrac{x^2}{9^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{56}=1\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{x^2}{81}+\dfrac{y^2}{56}=1

Hence, the required equation : \dfrac{x^2}{81}+\dfrac{y^2}{56}=1

You and your friends have just measured the heights of your dogs. The heights are 600mm, 470mm, 170mm, 430mm and 300mm. Find out
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

To find the mean, you have to add all numbers together and divide them by the number of data points.

let me show what I mean:

The heights of the dogs are 600,470,170, 430,300.

Step-by-step explanation:

600+470+170+430+300.

1970.

Now we have to divide 1,970 by 5 ( because we are given 5 data points)

The mean is:

1970/5=394

Variance: First, arrange the data from least to greatest.

s2 = 27130

Standard Deviation: 164.71187
