Answer:

According to the Empirical Rule, 68% of the data should fall between 11.98 and 18.02

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following data in the question:

10, 11, 12, 13, 13, 13, 14, 15, 16, 16, 17, 18, 18, 19, 20

Formula:

\text{Standard Deviation} = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n-1}}  

where x_i are data points, \bar{x} is the mean and n is the number of observations.  

Mean = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observation}}

Mean =\displaystyle\frac{225}{15} = 15

Sum of squares of differences = 25 + 16 + 9 + 4 + 4+ 4 + 1 + 0+ 1+ 1 + 4 + 9 + 9+ 16 + 25 = 128

S.D = \sqrt{\dfrac{128}{14}} = 3.02

Empirical rule:

  • According to this rule almost all the data lies within three standard deviation of the mean for a normal distribution.
  • About 68% of data lies within one standard deviation of the mean.
  • About 95% of data lies within two standard deviations of mean.
  • Arround 99.7% of data lies within three standard deviation of mean.

Thus, by empirical rule,

\mu \pm 1\sigma = 15\pm (3.02) = (11.98,18.02)

According to the Empirical Rule, 68% of the data should fall between 11.98 and 18.02

Triangle ABC is reflected over the x-axis. У C(5, - 1) | A(0, - 2) -3 -4 B(2, - 4) 5 -6 What are the vertices of AA'B'C '?
8090 [49]

Answer:

The vertices of the triangle A'B'C' are A'(x,y) =(0,2), B'(x,y) = (-2,4) and C'(x,y) = (-5,1), respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vectorially speaking, the reflection of a point over the x-axis is defined by the following expression:

P'(x,y) = P(x,y) -2\cdot P(x,y)

P'(x,y) = -P(x,y) (1)

Where:

P(x,y) - Original point.

P'(x,y) - Reflected point.

If we know that A(x,y) = (0,-2), B(x,y) = (2,-4) and C(x,y) = (5,-1), then the vertices of the triangle A'B'C':

A'(x,y) =(0,2), B'(x,y) = (-2,4), C'(x,y) = (-5,1)

The vertices of the triangle A'B'C' are A'(x,y) =(0,2), B'(x,y) = (-2,4) and C'(x,y) = (-5,1), respectively.
