The option D is the correct option.
According to the statement
we have to define the sample variance in the words.
So,
The sample variance is the sum of the squared deviations from the mean divided by the number of measurements minus one.
and in the case of the population variance it becomes
The population variance is the average of the squared distances of the measurements on all units in the population from the mean.
This is the method by which we define the sample variance and population variance.
So, The option D is the correct option.

Answer:
The length of the rectangle 'l' = 20
The width of the rectangle 'w' = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Explanation</u>:-
Let 'x' be the width
Given data the length of a rectangular patio is 8 feet less than twice its width
2x-8 = length
The area of rectangle = length X width
Given area of rectangle = 280 square feet
x(2x-8) = 280
2(x)(x-4) =280
x(x-4) =140
x^2 -4x -140=0
x^2-14x+10x-140=0
x(x-14)+10(x-14)=0
(x+10)(x-14) =0
x = -10 and x = 14
we can choose only x =14
The width of the rectangle 14
The length of the rectangle 2x-8 = 2(14)-8 = 28 -8 =20
The length of the rectangle 'l' = 20
The width of the rectangle 'w' = 14
If the initial time was 60 seconds and 18 seconds have passed,

There would be 42 seconds left.
