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

At total of 2 feet of snow falls over three days on the first day 1/6 of the snow falls on the second day 7/12 of the snow falls
ioda

Answer:

Day\ 3 = 1\frac{3}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total = 2ft

Day\ 1 = \frac{1}{6}

Day\ 2 = \frac{7}{12}

Required

Determine the amount of snow on day 3

This can be calculated using:

Day\ 1 + Day\ 2 + Day\ 3 = Total

Substitute values for the known parameters

\frac{1}{6} + \frac{7}{12} + Day\ 3 = 2

Collect Like Terms

Day\ 3 = 2 - \frac{1}{6} - \frac{7}{12}

Take LCM

Day\ 3 = \frac{24 - 2 - 7}{12}

Day\ 3 = \frac{15}{12}

Express as mixed number

Day\ 3 = 1\frac{3}{12}
