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 .

A theater group made appearances in two cities. The hotel charge before tax in the second city was $1000 lower than in the first
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Let x = the charge in 1st city before taxes

Let y = the charge in 2nd city before taxes

 

 

Set up equation before taxes.

 

y = x - 1500        eq1

 

 

Set up equation for total tax paid.

 

0.065x + 0.06y = 378.75         eq2

 

 

Substitute eq1 into eq2.

 

0.065x + 0.06(x - 1500) = 378.75

0.065x + 0.06x - 90 = 378.75

0.125x - 90 = 378.75

0.125x = 468.75

       x = 3750

 

Substitute this value of x into eq1.

 

y = 3750 - 1500

y = 2250

 

 

The hotel charge in city one is $3750 and the hotel charge in city two is $2250

Your little brother just learned how to flip and catch a coin. He believes that by catching the coin in mid-air, he can influenc
coldgirl [10]
<h2>Answer explanation:</h2>

If a coin is fair then it has two faces , one is heads and the another is tails.

The probability getting any favorable outcomes is given by the formula :-

\dfrac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

So the factor effecting probability is just the number of  favorable outcomes and total outcomes.

If a coin is tossed then the probability of getting heads will be :-

P(H)=\dfrac{1}{2}=0.5=50\%

To get heads always this should be 1 , which can be happen if number of  favorable outcomes is equal to total outcomes.

i.e. Number of heads = Number of total outcomes, this means coin should be biased.

Catching the coin in mid-air can never be a factor for this.

Therefore, the little brother's theory is false.
