The Energy Information Administration records the price of electricity in the United State each month. In July 2013, the average

price of electricity was 11.92 cents per kilowatt-hour. Suppose that the standard deviation is 2.1 cents per kilowatt-hour. What can you determine about these data by using Chebyshev's Inequality with K=3?

Answer:

89% of the time that average price of electricity is expected to be in the interval from 5.62 cents per kw-h to 18.22 cents per kw-h

Step-by-step explanation:

Chebyshev's inequality states that:

When K = 2, 75% of the data is within two standard deviations of the mean

When K = 3, 89% of the data is within 3 standard deviations of the mean

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 11.92 cents per kw-h

Standard deviation = 2.1 cents per kw-h

What can you determine about these data by using Chebyshev's Inequality with K=3?

3 standard deviations below the mean

11.92 - 3*2.1 = 5.62 cents per kw-h

3 standard deviations above the mean

11.92 + 3*2.1 = 18.22 cents per kw-h

So you can determine that 89% of the time that average price of electricity is expected to be in the interval from 5.62 cents per kw-h to 18.22 cents per kw-h

Given f(x) = abx + c. How would increasing the value of a change the graph?
Helen [10]
Increasing the value of a would change the slope of the function specifically it would increase as well. Therefore, the line would be steeper than the original. The term ab represents the slope of the function and changing either one would result to the change of the steepness of the line.
