Given:

Data set = \{x, 2x, 3x, 4x\}

To find:

The absolute mean deviation for the given set.

Solution:

We have,

Data set = \{x, 2x, 3x, 4x\}

Mean of the data set is

Mean=\dfrac{\sum x_i}{n}

Mean=\dfrac{x+2x+3x+4x}{4}

Mean=\dfrac{10x}{4}

Mean=2.5x

Now,

The formula for mean absolute deviation (MAD) is

MAD=\dfrac{\sum |x_i-\overline x|}{n}

MAD=\dfrac{|x-2.5x|+|2x-2.5x|+|3x-2.5x|+|4x-2.5x|}{4}

MAD=\dfrac{|-1.5x|+|-0.5x|+|0.5x|+|1.5x|}{4}

MAD=\dfrac{1.5x+0.5x+0.5x+1.5x}{4}

MAD=\dfrac{4x}{4}

MAD=x

Therefore, the mean absolute deviation for the given set of data is x.

A 10-foot ladder is leaning against a wall. The base of the ladder is 2 feet from the base of the building. How far up the build
Svetlanka [38]
We can see on this graph that the triangle has legs of x and 6 with a hypotenuse of 10 and we can use Pythagoreans theorem to find the unknown side.
Pythagoreans theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2, where a and b are the legs of the triangle and c, is the hypotenuse 

x^2+6^2=10^2 Plugin a=x, b=6, and c=10. Now let us solve for x 

x^2+36=100 Square each individual term 

x^2+=100+36 Subtract 36 from both sides 

x^2=64 Combine like terms 

sqrt(2)=sqrt(64) Take the square root of both sides 

x = 8 Simplify the square root 

So our answer is x = 8 
The ladder touches the 8 feet mark on the wall.

What is the conditional probability that exactly four heads appear when a fair coin is flipped five times
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

5/32

Step-by-step explanation:

If a coin if flipped five times with four heads, then it has exactly one tail. The number of way to arrange four heads and one tail are as follows:

T H H H H

H T H H H

H H T H H

H H H T H

H H H H T

Essentially, there are five way because there are five "positions" where the tail could be.

Then, you need to find the total amount of possibilities for flipping a coin five times. Every time you flip it, there are two possibilities- heads and tails. Therefore, for five flips, the total amount of possibilities is

2x2x2x2x2 = 32

You know that

probability= # of desired outcome

                   ----------------------------------  

                      # of total outcomes

So the probablity is 5/32.
