Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is no slope, there is no need for a y variable to appear in your final equation. The graph will cross y = -8 horizontally. So therefore, x = -8

This is a pretty short explanation, but there's not too much to it. Hope this helped :)

Angles R and S are complementary. If angle R is = 4x - 20 and angle S = 6x - 7, then angle R measures ___ degrees.

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

26.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 20 + 6x - 7 = 90

10x -27 =90

10x = 90+27

10x= 117

x = 11.7

so, the angle R = 4x-20 =4(11.7)-20

= 46.8-20 = 26.8°

Help me find Sample variance and standard deviation

AnnZ [28]

First, find the mean. You'll need it to compute the variance.

$\bar x=\displaystyle\frac15\sum_{i=1}^5x_i=\dfrac{21+10+6+7+11}5=11$

The variance of the sample is then computed with the formula

$s^2=\displaystyle\dfrac1{5-1}\sum_{i=1}^5(\bar x-x_i)^2=\dfrac{(21-11)^2+\cdots+(11-11)^2}4=\dfrac{71}2=35.5$

The standard deviation is the square root of the variance, so

$s=\sqrt{35.5}\approx5.958$
