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

f(x) = x4 - 50x2 + 3 (a) Find the intervals on which f is increasing. (Enter the interval that contains smaller numbers first.)
shtirl [24]

Answer:

  (-5, 0) ∪ (5, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

I find a graph convenient for this purpose. (See below)

__

When you want to find where a function is increasing or decreasing, you want to look at the sign of the derivative. Here, the derivative is ...

  f'(x) = 4x^3 -100x = 4x(x^2 -25) = 4x(x +5)(x -5)

This has zeros at x=-5, x=0, and x=5. The sign of the derivative will be positive when 0 or 2 factors have negative signs. The signs change at the zeros. So, the intervals of f' having a positive sign are (-5, 0) and (5, ∞).

Answer:

This is a line, x>0  (miles cannot be negative)

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of renting a car =  cost per mile times the number of miles  plus the flat fee

We know the cost per mile = .25 and the flat fee

Let x = number of miles and y = cost of renting a car

y = .25x+15

This is in the form y= mx+b which is  the slope intercept form of a line.

N76 [4]

It costs the zoo 0.86 per day to feed each bat a variety of soft fruits, therefore the cost of 17 egyptian fruit bats would be $14.62

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

A quadratic equation is in the form:

y = ax² + bx + c

it costs the zoo 0.86 per day to feed each bat a variety of soft fruits. Hence:

Cost of 17 egyptian fruit bats = $0.86 per day * 17 = $14.62

It costs the zoo 0.86 per day to feed each bat a variety of soft fruits, therefore the cost of 17 egyptian fruit bats would be $14.62
