Salska and colleagues (2008) studied height preferences among dating partners. In their first study, they reviewed Yahoo persona

ls for heterosexual individuals living within 250 miles of Los Angeles, California, and recorded the acceptable range of heights for their dating partners.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The larger standard deviation, the greater the variability.  So even before looking at the data, we can eliminate a) and c).

The standard deviations of men's preference of shortest and tallest acceptable height (3.7 and 2.7, respectively) were more than the standard deviations of women's preference of shortest and tallest acceptable height (2.6 and 2.2, respectively).

So men showed greater variability overall because the standard deviations for men were larger than for women.  Answer D.

How to work this out ?

Answer:

The solution is (-3, -2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Please note that if you simply add these 2 equations together, 9x - 9x = 0, and you are then left with -5y = 10.  Thus, y = -2.  Subbing -2 for y in the first equation, we get 9x - 8(-2) = -11, or 9x + 16 = -11.

Subtracting 16 from both sides, we get 9x = -27, so that x = -3.

The solution is (-3, -2).

If 3(r+300)=6, then what would be the value of r+300-2?
saveliy_v [14]

Solve for r in the first equation:

3(r+300) = 6

Use the distributive property:

3r + 900 = 6

Subtract 900 from both sides:

3r = -894

Divide both sides by 3:

r = -894 / 3

r = -298

Now you have r, replace r in the second equation and solve:

r +300 -2 =

-298 + 300 - 2 = 0

The answer is 0.

The sides of a triangle are consecutive integers.if its perimeter is 126cm,find the lenghts of the sides.
Neko [114]
X + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 126
3x = 123
x = 41
So the sides are 41, 42 and 43
