Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard deviation is the square root of the variance, and the variance is found by using the mean. So we will do that first. I will use the population variance as opposed to the sample variance since our set of numbers is small.
The mean: 8 + 12 + 15 + 17 + 18 = 70 and divide that by 5 to get
and use this to find the variance in the formula:
it is a bit difficult to enter that formula in correctly, but here's how it works mathematically:

Squaring this ensures us that we don't end up with zero, which would be useless.
so
which means that the standard deviation is
s = 3.633
(If you do it with n-1 = 4 in the denominator of the variance, you get a standard deviation of 4.062)
A=2...
Subtract 14 from both sides,then subtract 8 from both sides. Your left with
6a=12
6x1=6
6x2=12
A=2
For a cuboid's volume you simply go length x width x heigth so 2x4x5 so it's 40.
Answer:
8 turtles
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of Liam's sea turtle sculpture weighs 3\8 pounds and he ships them in a wooden box that weighs 2 pounds.
The weight of the box filled with the sea turtles is 5 pounds.
This means that the weight of the sea turtles in the wooden box is:
5 - 2 = 3 pounds
To find the number of sea turtles in the box, we simply divide the total weight of the turtles in the box by the weight of each turtle. That is:
= 8 turtles
There are 8 turtles in the box.
To find the percent discount you will write the following equation:
x% of 60 is 18
<u>60x</u> = <u>18</u>
60 60
x = 0.3
The discount is 30%.
