Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data set is

34, 35, 41, 28, 26, 29, 32, 36, 38, 40

We need to find the mean deviation of the given data.

Number of observations, n = 10

Mean of the data is

Mean=\dfrac{\sum x}{n}

Mean=\dfrac{34+35+41+28+26+29+32+36+38+40}{10}

Mean=\dfrac{339}{10}

Mean=33.9

Formula for mean deviation is

\text{Mean deviation}=\dfrac{\sum |x-mean|}{n}

\sum |x-mean|=|34-33.9|+|35-33.9|+|41-33.9|+|28-33.9|+|26-33.9|+|29-33.9|+ |32-33.9|+|36-33.9|+|38-33.9|+|40-33.9|=41.2

\text{Mean deviation}=\dfrac{41.2}{10}

\text{Mean deviation}=4.12

The mean deviation of the ratings is 4.12.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Answer:

b. 4.12

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that 10 experts rated a newly developed chocolate chip cookie on a scale of 1 to 50. Their ratings were:

34, 35, 41, 28, 26, 29, 32, 36, 38, and 40.

First of all, we will find the mean of the ratings.

\text{Mean of ratings}=\frac{34+35+41+28+26+29+32+36+38+40}{10}

\text{Mean of ratings}=\frac{339}{10}

\text{Mean of ratings}=33.9

Let us find absolute deviation of each point from mean.

|34-33.9|=0.1

|35-33.9|=1.1

|41-33.9|=7.1

|28-33.9|=5.9

|26-33.9|=7.9

|29-33.9|=4.9

|32-33.9|=1.9

|36-33.9|=2.1

|38-33.9|=4.1

|40-33.9|=6.1

Now we will use mean deviation formula.

\text{Absolute mean deviation}=\frac{\Sigma |x-\mu|}{N}, where,

\mu=\text{Mean} and N = Number of data points.

MD=\frac{0.1+1.1+7.1+5.9+7.9+4.9+1.9+2.1+4.1+6.1}{10}

MD=\frac{41.2}{10}

MD=4.12

Therefore, the mean deviation of the ratings is 4.12 and option 'b' is the correct choice.

B is the midpoint

\\ \sf\longmapsto AB=\dfrac{1}{2}AC

\\ \sf\longmapsto 7x-3=\dfrac{5}{2}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 5=2(7x-3)

\\ \sf\longmapsto 5=14x-6

\\ \sf\longmapsto 14x=6+5

\\ \sf\longmapsto 14x=11

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{11}{14}

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=7.8

What is the quotient ? a-3/7 divided by 3-a/21
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Final result :  -3



Step by step solution :Step  1  :            3 - a Simplify   —————             21  Equation at the end of step  1  :  (a - 3)   (3 - a)  ——————— ÷ ———————     7        21   Step  2  :            a - 3 Simplify   —————              7  Equation at the end of step  2  :  (a - 3)   (3 - a)  ——————— ÷ ———————     7        21   Step  3  :         a-3      3-a Divide  ———  by  ———          7       21 
 3.1    Dividing fractions 
To divide fractions, write the divison as multiplication by the reciprocal of the divisor :
a - 3     3 - a       a - 3        21  —————  ÷  —————   =   —————  •  ———————  7        21           7       (3 - a)
 3.2    Rewrite   (3-a)    as  (-1) •  (a-3) Canceling Out : 3.3    Cancel out  (a-3)  which now appears on both sides of the fraction line.
Final result :  -3
