Answer:

Standard deviation of the population is 2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Finishing times of 6 participants in 200 meter dash has been given as 27, 28, 27, 25, 24, 31.

We have to calculate the standard deviation of the population formed by these timings.

Formula of standard deviation is

\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{\sum(x-\mu)^{2}}{n} }

where \sigma = standard deviation

\mu = mean of the data

n = number of scores in the sample

Mean of given data = \frac{27+28+27+25+24+31}{6}=27

\sum(x-\mu)^{2}=(27-27)^{2}+(28-27)^{2}+(27-27)^{2}+(25-28)^{2}+(24-27)^{2}+(31-27)^{2}

= 0+1+0+4+9+16

= 30

Now \frac{\sum(x-\mu)^{2}}{n}=\frac{30}{6}=5

\sigma=\sqrt{5} = 2.236 ≈ 2.24

Therefore, standard deviation of the given data is 2.24

The pharmacist uses 67mg, 100g and 0.6 kg of drug to compound 3 separate precription. how much total drug did the pharmacist use
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer: 700.067 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The pharmacist uses 67mg, 100g and 0.6 kg of drug to compound 3 separate prescription.

We know that 1 gram= 1000 milligram

and 1 kilogram = 1000 grams

Then, By UNITARY METHOD, \text{1 mg}=\dfrac{1}{1000}\text{ gram}

Now, We convert each amount of drug into grams as ,

67\ mg=67\times\dfrac{1}{1000}\ g\\\\=0.067\text{ g}

AND

0.6\ kg=0.6\times100=60\text{ g}

Now, the total drug used by Pharmacist (in grams) = 0.067+100+600=700.067\ g

Hence, Pharmacist used 700.067 g of total drug.

Given cos x=0.4762,find the degree measure of x.round your answer to the nearest tenth
alex41 [277]

If you have a calculator, you can use the inverse cos " cos⁻¹ " key. Many upper level books write that as Arccos so as not to confuse you with a negative exponent. We do that because if you take the cosine of any angle, and then the inverse cosine of any angle, it leads you back to the original angle. Think of it as a big "UNDO" button.

To one decimal place, that result is 61.6 degrees.

So for question one (about the equilateral triangle), you know any triangle equals 180 degrees. So an equilateral triangle has all equal angles, so 180/3 would equal 60 degrees for each angle.

Now for the first triangle out of the three isosceles.

You should know that there are two equal sides and one side that is not equal in a isosceles triangle.

So if one side is 34 degrees, and the other two are equal, then you first subtract 34 degrees from 180 degrees, because again, all triangles have 180 degrees. So 180-34 would equal to 146 degrees left. Now you divide 146 by two, because the other two angles are equal to each other. So 146/2 = 73 degrees for each of the remaining angles.

For the second triangle out of the three isosceles.

First, let's just calculate half of the triangle first. You already know two angles, 30 and 90 degrees (hence the 90 degree symbol).

So 30 + 90 would equal 120 degrees in total out of 180 degrees (because 1 triangle = 180 degrees).

So if you subtract 180-120 or 120 + ? = 180 to know the remaining angle of the half of the triangle, you would get 60 degrees left. And that also goes with the other side of the top angle of the entire triangle, so your answer for the second one would be 60 degrees. :-)

For the third triangle out of the three isosceles.

You know one angle is 75 degrees.

If you turn your screen a little bit (like about 90 degrees) to the left, you would see that two sides (with the x degree in the middle) is equal. So then know you know the other side of the triangle would also be 75 degrees, because one side that is equal has 75 degrees.

Now you have two 75 degrees, you add 75 + 75, which gives you 150 degrees now.

So obviously again, 180 degrees is the total amount of degrees in a triangle, and you want to know the last degree that would make the triangle equal to 180 degrees out of 150 degrees, so 180-150 or 150 + ? = 180, which gives you 30 degrees for x for the third isosceles triangle.

try doing the fourth one by yourself lol
