Answer:

<h2>The standard deviation is 2.6076809621.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The set of values are 2, 4, 7, 8, 9.

The mean of these values are \frac{2 + 4 + 7 + 8 + 9}{5} = \frac{30}{5} = 6.

The mean of the squares of the differences of these numbers and the mean is \frac{(6 - 2)^{2} + (6 - 4)^{2} + (6 - 7)^{2} + (6 - 8)^{2} + (6 - 9)^{2}}{5} = \frac{(4)^{2} + (2)^{2} + (-1)^{2} + (-2)^{2} + (-3)^{2}}{5} = \frac{34}{5} = 6.8.

In order to get the value of the standard deviation, we need to square-root the value of 6.8.

Hence, the standard deviation of the data set is \sqrt{6.8} = 2.607680962081 ≅2.6076809621.

$700 is invested at 4% per annum. How long will it take for the amount to reach $784?​
Blababa [14]

Answer:

3yrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Capital = $700

Percentage interest  = 4% per annum

Unknown:

Time it will take for amount to be  = $784

Solution:

To find the simple interest on an amount;

        I = \frac{PRT}{100}

P is the principal

R is the rate

T is the time

I is the interest

    Insert the parameters:

        I  = \frac{700x 4 x T}{100}

        I = 28T

So;

   At the end of the duration:

       Principal + Interest  = Amount

          700+28T = 784

                   28T = 784 - 700

                   28T = 84

                       T = 3yrs

Write the equation of the line that passes through the given lines (0,-2) and (4,1)
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

y = 3/4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Slope Formula: m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Step 1: Define

(0, -2) y-intercept

(4, 1) random point

Step 2: Find slope <em>m</em>

<em />m=\frac{1-(-2)}{4-0}<em />

<em />m=\frac{1+2}{4}<em />

<em />m=\frac{3}{4}<em />

y = 3/4x + b

Step 3: Write linear equation

y = 3/4x - 2
