Tricky but not crazy hard. You could use th x/y method where you turn it into a cross multiplication fiasco.

or you can try your guesses through what ever equals 1/2 when you add one to the denominator. the answer you are looking for is 2/3

2/3 + 1 for the numerator = 1.

2/3 + 1 for the denominator = 1/2.

A researcher computes the definitional formula for SS, and finds that Σ(x − M) = 44. If this is a sample of 12 scores, then what

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Σ(x − M) = 44

where, M is mean.

Sample size = 12

The computational formula for sample variance is

$s^2=\dfrac{\sum (x-M)^2}{N-1}$

where, M is sample mean and N is sample size.

Substitute Σ(x − M) = 44 and N=12 in the above formula.

$s^2=\dfrac{44}{12-1}$

$s^2=\dfrac{44}{11}$

$s^2=4.0$

The sample variance is 4.0.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Find the 44th percentile, P44, from the following data! pls help

irina [24]

Answer:

$P_{44} = 29.9$

Step-by-step Explanation:

The 44th percentile, $P_{44}$ , of the given data can be calculated using the kth formula for percentile given as:

$i = \frac{k}{100}(n + 1)$

where,

i = the ranking or the position of the percentile = ?

k = the percentile = 44

n = total number of the given data values = 23

Plug in the values into the formula to find "i"

$i = \frac{44}{100}(23 + 1)$

$i = \frac{44}{100}(24)$

$i = \frac{1,056}{100}$

$i = 10.56$

Since "I", 10.56, is not an integer, round the number down, and round it up to the nearest integer, then look for the position each occupy in the ordered data set, and find their average.

Thus,

$i_{down} = 10.56 = 10$

$i_{up} = 10.56 = 11$

The data occupying the 10th position on the data set = 28.7

11th = 31.1

$P_{44} = \frac{28.7 + 31.1}{2} = \frac{59.8}{2}$

$P_{44} = 29.9$

The stock of Company A lost $4.17 throughout the day and ended at a value of

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

After losing 4.17, it came down to 100.08, so the opening price was:

100.08 + 4.17 = 104.25

To find percentage decline, we find the ratio of the "change" (which is 4.17) divided by the opening (original) price, which is 104.25. Then we multiply that fraction by 100 to get our percentage decline.

So,

$\frac{4.17}{104.25}*100=4$

Thus, the

percentage decline = 4%
