Answer:

Standard Deviation is 18.57 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the frequency distribution for the speed of a sample of automobiles traveling on an interstate highway;

  Speed (mph)     Frequency (f)      X         X*f           X - Xbar        (X-Xbar)^{2}

     50 - 54                    4                52       208         52 - 65 = -13         169

     55 - 59                    3                57        171           57 - 65 = -8           64

     60 - 64                    2                62        124          62 - 65 = -3            9

     65 - 69                    5                67        335          67 - 65 = 2             4

     70 - 74                     2                72        144           72 - 65 = 7            49

     75 - 79               <u>      5       </u>         77     <u>   385    </u>      77 - 65 = 12          144

                                <u> ∑f = 21   </u>              ∑X*<u>f = 1367 </u>            

Mean of the data, Xbar = \frac{\sum Xf}{\sum f}

                                       = \frac{1367}{21} = 65.09 ≈ 65 .        

Now, Standard deviation, s = \sqrt{\frac{\sum f*(X-Xbar)^{2} }{n-1}}

s =  \sqrt{\frac{(4*169)+(3*64)+(2*9)+(5*4)+(2*49)+(5*144)}{6-1} } = \sqrt{\frac{1724}{5} } = 18.57

Therefore, standard deviation is 18.57 .

Find the area of the following rectangle (the figure is not drawn to scale)
Sophie [7]

Answer:

<h2>204 units²</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a rectangle. Therefore the opposite sides are congruent.

We have the equation:

2x + 4 = 12              <em>subtract 4 from both sides</em>

2x = 8       <em>divide both sides by 2</em>

x = 4

Put the value of x to the expression 4x + 1:

4(4) + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17

Therefore we have the rectangle with dimesions 17 × 12.

The area of the rectangle:

A = (17)(12) = 204

A random variable X has a mean of 10 and a standard deviation of 3. If 2 is added to each value of X, what will the new mean and
dlinn [17]

Answer:

New mean will be 12

And no change in standard deviation

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the relationship between the two mean and standard deviation

\sigma=\frac{\sqrt{x-x_i}}^2{n}

\sigma=\text{standard deviation},x=mean,n=\text{number of observations}

If we add 2 to each value of x that means the mean will become n will become 2n and since we are adding 2 to each value

The new mean will become 12

And there will be no change in the standard deviation because of equal change in the each data.

What is the surface area of this right prism?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Since the 'base' and 'top' of any prism have the same shape, the surface area can be found by

surface area of prism = 2 * area of base + perimeter of base * H

So for the rectangular prism in your example..

surface area = 2LW + 2(L+W)H

= 2 * 7 * 4 + 2*(7+4)*5

= 56 + 2 * 11 * 5

= 56 +110

= 166 sq cm

Hope this helps
