Answer:

d. It is at most 25 percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Chebyshev's inequality, for a given number of standard deviations, k, no more than 1/k² can be more than k standard deviations from the mean. In this situation the amount of standard deviations from the mean of the upper and lower bound of salaries are:

U=\frac{\$92,000-\$80,000}{\$6,000}=2\\L = \frac{\$80,000-\$68,000}{\$6,000}= 2

For k = 2, applying Chebyshev's inequality:

P( \$68,000 \leq X \leq \$92,000)= \frac{1}{2^2} = 0.25

Therefore, at most 25% of the salaries are less than $68,000 or more than $92,000.

The scatter plot shows the amount of sunlight some tomato plants received and the amount of each plant grew
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is attached herewith.

Also the options for the same are as follows -

What is the meaning of the slope of the trend line shown on the scatterplot?  

A A plant grows about 3 inches for every 2 hours of sunlight it receives.  

B A plant grows about 2 inches for every 3 hours of sunlight it receives.  

C A plant grows about 3 inches for every 1 hour of sunlight it receives.  

D A plant grows about 1 inch for every 3 hours of sunlight it receives.

Solution

If we look at the graph, we can see that in 6 hours the tomato plant grew by 2 inches.

At the X axis, when x = 6 hours, the y co-ordinate at X = 6 hours is 2 inches.

Hence, It can be interpreted that 1 inch of the tomato plant grows in 3 hours.

Hence, option D is correct

Help me on this I really need it
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Given that sale of grills increase 6% per year

CUrrent sale of grills this year = 3300

So in the first year sales would increase by 3300(6%)

Total sales in the I year =3300+3300(6%)

This will be again increasing by 6% in II year and so on.

Hence we have

every year 3300 increases by 6% compoundly

So

No of sales in t year

=3300(1+0.06)^t\\=3300(1.06^t)

In 6th year sale

s(6) =3300(1.06)^6\\=4681.11
