Answer:

The actual distance between the historical markers is 18 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : On a map, the distance between two historical markers is 4.5 inches, and 2.5 inches represents 10 miles.

To find : What is the actual distance between the historical markers?

Solution :

We have given that,

2.5 inches represents 10 miles.

i.e, 1 inch represent $\frac{10}{2.5}$ miles.

1 inch = 4 miles.

Now, The distance between two historical markers is 4.5 inches.

The actual distance between the historical markers in 4.5 inch is

$4.5 \text{ inch}=4.5\times 4\text{ miles}$

$4.5 \text{ inch}=18\text{ miles}$

Therefore, The actual distance between the historical markers is 18 miles.

2.5 inches represents 10 miles.
Then 1 inch represents:
10 : 2.5 = 4 miles.
4.5 x 4 = 18 miles
Answer: The actual distance between the historical markers is 18 miles.

Answer:

8: 90 degrees, 9: 165 degrees, 6: 81 degrees, 7: angles in the same segment are equal

Step-by-step explanation:

For question 8:

Notice how the line AB just barely touches the edge of the circle. We call this kind of line a tangent. The point O is at the center of the circle so the line OB is a radius. The angle between a tangent and a radius is always 90 degrees, so ABO is 90 degrees.

For question 9:

By the exact same logic as 8, ACO is also 90 degrees. The sum of interior angles in a 4 sided shape (a quadrilateral) is always 360 degrees. This means that 15 + 90 + 90 + x = 360 = 195 + x so x = 360 - 195 = 165

For question 6/7:

We use the theorem that the angles in the same segment are equal. This means that a is 81 degrees.

Which one of the following is always true?a. The coefficient of variation measures variability in a positively skewed data set r

Tom [10]

Answer:

C. The coefficient of variation is a measure of relative dispersion that expresses the standard deviation as a percentage of the mean, for any data on a ratio scale and an interval scale

Step-by-step explanation:

Th Coefficient of Variance is a measure of dispersion that can be calculated using the formula:

$CV = \frac{\sigma_{x} }{\mu_{x} } * 100%$

Where $\sigma{x}$ is the Standard Deviation

and $\mu_{x}$ is the sample mean

From the formula written above, it is shown that the Coefficient of Variation expresses the Standard Deviation as a percentage of the mean.

Coefficient of variation can be used to compare positive as well as negative data on the ratio and interval scale, it is not only used for positive data.

The Interquartile Range is not a measure of central tendency, it is a measure of dispersion.
