Solution: The standard deviation is used in conjunction with the mean to numerically describe distributions that are bell shaped. The mean measures the center of the distribution, while the standard deviation measures the spread of the distribution.
In normal distribution (bell shaped distribution) , the mean and standard deviation are used to describe its distribution. The mean measures the center of the distribution, while the standard deviation takes care of the spread of the distribution.
The mean of the normal distribution is 
and the standard deviation is 
D=1/2.g.t^2,
where D=distance the object has fallen, g=9.81m/sec^2(being the pull of gravity), t=time elapsed in seconds.
The first one shows 1 cm and 7 mm, we need to convert 7 mm to cm
1 cm + 7 mm
= 1 cm +
cm
= 1 cm + 0.7 cm
= 1.7 cm
The first one is 1.7 cmThe second one shows 11 inches and 5/16 inches. Between number 11 and 12, there are 16 strips and the pointer lies on fifth strip, thus it show 5/16 inches.
The second one is 11
inches.The third one shows 13 cm and 8 mm. We need to convert mm into cm.
13 cm + 8 mm
= 13 cm + 0.8 cm
= 13.8 cm
The third one is 13.8 mm
Answer:
See explanation below.
Step-by-step explanation:
A right triangle is a triangle that has a right angle (90º). In math, the Pythagorean theorem allows us to calculate the length of the sides of a right triangle.
In a right triangle, the legs are the two sides that meet at the 90º angle and the hypotenuse is the side that opposes the right angle. The Pythagorean Theorem tells us that the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the legs. In other words: 
where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the legs.
Now, we can use this formula to calculate the diagonal of the pool if we just have the length and the width (these would be the legs of the triangle). We need to measure both the length and the width and then square both of them and sum up the squares: this would give us the square of the diagonal so we will only need to find its quadratic root and we will have the length of the diagonal.
For example, let's say we have a pool that is 3 ft by 4ft, using the formula we have:
Therefore, in this case the diagonal would be 5 ft long.
