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 .

Marisa wants to buy a quality phone for least $200.She has already saved $125 and plans to save an additional $10 each week.Writ
eduard

Answer:

The inequality can be represented as:

10w+125\geq200

where w represents the number of weeks in which Maria will be able to buy a phone  for least $200.

On solving it we get : w\geq 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Maria wants to buy a phone for at least $200.

She has savings of $125.

She plans to save $10 every week.

To write an inequality for the situation.

Solution:

Let the number of weeks in which Maria will be able to buy a phone be = w

If she saves $10 each week.

Then, in w weeks she will save in dollars = 10w

She already has savings = $125

So her total savings in w weeks in dollars will be = 10w+125

She wants to buy a phone for at least $200.

Thus, the inequality can be represented as:

10w+125\geq200

Solving for w

Subtracting both sides by 125.

10w+125-125\geq 200-125

10w\geq 75

Dividing both sides by 10.

\frac{10w}{10}\geq \frac{75}{10}

w\geq 7.5

Thus Maria needs at least 7.5 weeks to be able to buy a phone for atleast $200.

What is 2r - 6r 8 = 40?
Anit [1.1K]
Well first you have to add common like terms in this case 2r and -6r to get -4r now your equation is -4r+8=40, now subtract 8 from both sides to leave r by itself and get -4r=32, now divide both sides by -4 to get r=-8

Hope this helps

melamori03 [73]
Since, we don't have the actual graph, I cannot give you a final answer. However, I can explain how to find the answer.

If you are looking for the color that the fans like the least, just pick the bar that is the smallest. This will be the correct answer.
