It takes 11 seconds to scan one person. So we have this ratio to start with

11 seconds: 1 person

Divide both sides by 11 to get this new ratio

1 second: 1/11 person

1 second: 0.0909 person

So in 1 second, 0.0909 of a person can be scanned. This statement seems silly because we can't have a fraction of a person, but it helps with the next part as shown below. The next step is to multiply both sides by 1800 to get....

1 second: 0.0909 person

1800*1 second: 1800*0.0909 person

1800 seconds: 163.62 persons

In a span of 1800 seconds (equivalent to 30 minutes), about 163 people's lunches can be scanned. Unfortunately, none of the answer choices are 163. The closest thing is 180, but that is an overestimate. So I would ask your teacher if there is a typo somewhere.

Note: if it took exactly 10 seconds for each student (instead of 11), then the answer would be 1800*(1/10) = 1800*0.10 = 180.

Write the trigonometric ratio for cos X as a fraction and as a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth
Ganezh [65]

Answer: The correct choice is letter C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse

In this triangle, you are looking for angle degree of cos X.

When finding an angle degree, you must use the inverse of whatever trig ratio you are using. In this case, you would use cos^{-1}.

The adjacent side from x is 12 and the hypotenuse is 15.

So you form your trig ratio which is your answer.

cos^{-1} \frac{12}{15} = 0.80

Answer:

The correct statements are: B and D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard deviation is one of the measure of dispersion or spread of a dataset from the average value of the dataset. The standard deviation measures the variability of the distribution of values.

The higher the spread or variability in the data set, the greater is the standard deviation value and thus greater will be the magnitude of the deviance of the value from their average.

Then the standard deviation (S.D.) is given by,

S.D.=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum\limits^{n}_{i=1} {(x_{i}-\bar x)^{2} }}

The correct statements are:

B. It is a measure of variability.

D. It is calculated using the mean.
