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.

What is the vertical shift of the graph of the parent cosecant function to the graph of the function below?
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Option: C is the correct answer.

        C. 3 units down.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the graph of a cosecant function has a minimum value for a upward open curve as : 1

It could be seen from the graph.

But here the minimum value of the upward open curve in the transformed function is: -2

This means that the vertical shift is given by:

-2-1=-3

This means that there is a vertical shift of 3 units down in the parent function.

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

The answer is 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8 miles in 3/4 minutes

then, that means in 1 minute ( 1 min = 3/4 * 4/3) Emma will ride a distance of (1/8)*(4/3)= (1*4)/(8*3)= 1/6.

The answer is 1/6 (in 1 min she will ride 1/6 miles).

Hope that useful for you.

So there are 18 marbles in all.So the denominator should we eighteen unless we can simplify it.There are 6 yellow marbles,so the numerator can be 6 unless simplified.In this case,the fraction is 6/18.We can simplify it.The GCF(greatest common denominator) is  6.That makes it 1/3.
