Answer:

It seems the question is incomplete as the two data sets implied from the question are not visible.

However, two data sets having identical measures of center have a difference.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider these two data sets:

2, 2, 3, 5, 6, 6 and 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 19

Both were contrived.

The most reliable among the measures of center is the mean. The mean of each is calculated by summing the data and dividing by the number of elements. In both sets, the mean is 4.

The data in the first set seem to be concentrated around the mean indeed. But for the second data set, one of them, 19, is obviously very far from the others and the mean. We need another measure to describe this: standard deviation.

Its formula is:

\rho=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sum (x-\overline{x})^2}{n}}

x represents each data, \overline{x} is the mean and n is the number of items. x-\overline{x} is the deviation from the mean of each data item.

For the first data set, \rho=\sqrt{6}=2.45

For the second data set,

\rho=\sqrt{45}=6.71

The low value of \rho for the first set indicates that the items are all closer to the mean than for the second set.

Variance is the square of the standard deviation. It could also be used.

Island A is 160 miles from island B. A ship captain travels 220 miles from island A and then finds that he is off course and 200
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

=135.53°

Step-by-step explanation:

The bearing that the captain should turn is the angle difference between the two islands from the position of the ship.

Let C be the position of the ship, then

AB is c=160

AC is b=220

BC is a=200

We use the cosine rule as follows:

c²=a²+b²-2ab Cos C

160²=200²+220²-2×200×220 Cos C

25600=88400-88000Cos C

88000 Cos C=88400-25600

88000Cos C=62800

Divide both sides by 88000.

Cos C=62800/88000

=0.7136

C=44.47°

He should turn (180°-44.47°)=135.53°
