Answer:

Range = 13

Variance = 10.22

Standard deviation = 3.20

Since this data is time-series therefore, the measures of variation do not reveal anything about the pattern of hurricanes over time.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the number of hurricanes that occurred in each year in a certain region.

8 9 8 7 9 15 5 6 8 4 12 7 8 2

Range:

The range of the data set is found by

Range = Maximum value - minimum value

The maximum value in the data set is 15

The minimum value in the data set is 2

Range = 15 - 2

Range = 13

Variance:

To find the variance, first compute the mean of the data set.

Mean = Sum/n

Mean = (8+9+8+7+9+15+5+6+8+4+12+7+8+2)/14

Mean = 108/14

Mean = 7.714

The variance is given by

σ² = (x - mean)²/(n - 1)

σ² = (8 - 7.714)² + (9 - 7.714)²+ (8 - 7.714)² + (7 - 7.714)² + (9 - 7.714)² + (15 - 7.714)² + (5 - 7.714)² + (6 - 7.714)² + (8 - 7.714)² + (4 - 7.714)² + (12 - 7.714)² + (7 - 7.714)² + (8 - 7.714)² + (2 - 7.714)²/(14 - 1)

σ² = 10.22

Standard deviation:

The standard deviation of the data set is given by

σ² = √σ

σ² = √10.22

σ² = 3.20

Since this data is time-series therefore, the measures of variation do not reveal anything about the pattern of hurricanes over time.

The graph of f(x) = x2 was transformed to create the graph of g(x) = (x − 7.5)2. Which of these describes this transformation?
QveST [7]

Answer:

  A.  A horizontal shift to the right 7.5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Replacing x with x-7.5 shifts the graph 7.5 units to the <em>right</em>.

__

In general, g(x) = f(x-h)+k will shift h units right and k units up. In this problem there is no vertical shift.

Could someone please help me with this? Solution set of lx^2+mx+n=0 is...?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Simplifying

lx2 + mx + n = 0

Solving

lx2 + mx + n = 0

Solving for variable 'l'.

Move all terms containing l to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1mx' to each side of the equation.

lx2 + mx + -1mx + n = 0 + -1mx

Combine like terms: mx + -1mx = 0

lx2 + 0 + n = 0 + -1mx

lx2 + n = 0 + -1mx

Remove the zero:

lx2 + n = -1mx

Add '-1n' to each side of the equation.

lx2 + n + -1n = -1mx + -1n

Combine like terms: n + -1n = 0

lx2 + 0 = -1mx + -1n

lx2 = -1mx + -1n

Divide each side by 'x2'.

l = -1mx-1 + -1nx-2

Simplifying

l = -1mx-1 + -1nx-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helped you!
