(08.03)Magdeline wants to know if the number of words on a page in her computer science book is generally more than the number o

f words on a page in her math book. She takes a random sample of 25 pages in each book and then calculates the mean, median, and mean absolute deviation for the 25 samples of each book.
Book Mean Median Mean Absolute Deviation
Computer science 48.7 40 9.4
Math 34.2 45 1.9


She claims that because the mean number of words on each page in the computer science book is greater than the mean number of words on each page in the math book, the computer science book has more words per page. Based on the data, is this a valid inference?

Yes, because there is a lot of variability in the computer science book data
Yes, because the mean is larger in the computer science book
No, because the mean is larger in the computer science book
No, because there is a lot of variability in the computer science book data

Answer with explanation:

To know on  which book, number of words is more between, Computer Science and Math

Magdeline selects 25 pages from each book, then Calculates Mean, Median, Mean Absolute Deviation of number of words on each page.

Book                Mean    Median     Mean Absolute Deviation

Computer science 48.7            40                   9.4

Math                  34.2         45                      1.9

Observing what Magdeline has Done,

Mean is Sum of words on each page of 25 pages divided by 25.

1. Mean of Computer Science book is more than mean number of words on pages of math book.

2.And, Median means , computer science book has more pages which contains 40 words ,and Math book  has more pages which contain 45 words.

3.Now,Coming to Mean Absolute Deviation, which measures the Variability from Mean.

In computer science book ,there is more Variability that is, 9.4 and 1.9 in math book.

So, just by claiming, that because the mean number of words on each page in the computer science book is greater than the mean number of words on each page in the math book, the computer science book has more words per page appears invalid Inference, because variability from mean in computer science book is more than variability from mean in Math book because Mean Absolute Deviation measures Variability fro mean.

Option D:  No, because there is a lot of variability in the computer science book data

San paid $8.28 for 18 stamps at this rate how much is a cost Sam to buy 12 stands
siniylev [52]
If we pay $8.28 for 18 stamps we can find the price of one stamp by dividing by 18.

So, the price of one stamp will be
$8.28 / 18 = $ 0.46

To find the price of 12 stamps we have to multiply by 12 and finally find
$0.46 * 12 = $5.52

Hence, the cost of 12 stamps is $5.52

Raul has been offered three different jobs and must choose which one to accept. One of the factors he is considering is the pay
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

As the pay rate for Job C is the highest, so he must accept the offer from Job C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Raul would work 50 weeks of the year,

40 hours each week,

5 days each week,

and he would receive a 1-hour lunch break each day.

Pay rate for Job A = $35,000 / year

  • For Job B:

Pay rate = $15 / hour

He will work 40 hours each week.

As he works 5 days a week, so in 1 day he will work 40/5 = 8 hours.

He would receive a 1-hour break each day, for which he will not be paid, so he will receive a payment for 8-1=7 hours.

So, payment for 1 day = $15 x 7 = $105

As he works 5 days a week, so payment for 1 week = $105 x 5 = $525

As he works 50 weeks a year, so payment for 1 year = $525 x 50 = $26250.

So, the pay rate by Job B = $26250 /year

  • For Job C:

Pay rate = $750 / week

As he works 50 weeks a year, so payment for 1 year = $750 x 50 = $37500.

So, the pay rate by Job C = $37500 /year

As the pay rate for Job C is the highest, so he must accept the offer from Job C.

Pam’s eye-level height is 324 ft above sea level, and Adam’s eye-level height is 400 ft above sea level. How much farther can Ad
Tanzania [10]

Answer: The answer is √6 mi.

The formula is: d = √(3h/2)

Pam:

h = 324 ft

d = √(3 * 324/2) = √486 = √(81 * 6) = √81 * √6 = 9√6 mi

Adam:

h = 400 ft

d = √(3 * 400/2) = √600 = √(100 * 6) = √100 * √6 = 10√6 mi

How much farther can Adam see to the horizon?

Adam - Pam = 10√6 - 9√6 = √6 mi
