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

Determine f^-1(2) given the following: f(1 = -3f(2) = -2f(-1) = 2f(3) = -1
lana [24]

We assume that the function is as follows:

f^{-1_{}}(2)=?

Then, we have that:

f^{-1}(x)=\frac{1}{f(x)}

Thus, if we have that:

f(2)=-2\Rightarrow f^{-1^{}_{}}(x)=\frac{1}{f(x)}\Rightarrow f^{-1}(2)=\frac{1}{f(2)}=\frac{1}{-2}\Rightarrow f^{-1}(2)=-\frac{1}{2}

Therefore, the value for the function is f^-1(2) = -1/2 or

f^{-1}(2)=-\frac{1}{2}

Answer:

You need to use the graph's equation and find the answer of y when x is 0 as this will give y when it is on the y axis.

To do this, substitute in 0 were x is in the equation and you will find the y intercept

Joseph needed $125 to buy a new pair of jordan's. His neighbor will pay him $6 per hour to walk his dog and his mother gave him
AveGali [126]

Answer: 14⅝ hiurs

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, we can form an equation which will be:

8 + 6h = 125

where, h = number of hours

6h = 125 - 8

6h = 117

h = 117/8

h = 14 ⅝hours

Therefore, minimum amount of hours he will need to walk the dog in order for him to buy a new pair of Jordans is 14⅝ hours.
