How to determine relationship between two variables with standard deviation?

luda_lava [24]

Standard deviation is the average distance between two points on the graph. If the standard deviation (sd) is high, then the variables relationship is more spread out and unlike one another. The smaller the sd, the closer and less varied the variables are.

Co-ordinate Geometry

Answer:

The value of a = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x₁, y₁) = (2, 4)

(x₂, y₂) = (6, a)

(x₃, y₃) = (-1, 1)

A = 9 sq.units

Area of a triangle with vertices (x₁, y₁), (x₂, y₂), and (x₃, y₃) is:

$A=\frac{\left|x_1\left(y_2-y_3\right)+x_2\left(y_3-y_1\right)+x_3\left(y_1-y_2\right)\right|}{2}$

substituting the values (x₁, y₁) = (2, 4), (x₂, y₂) = (6, a), (x₃, y₃) = (-1, 1), A = 9 in th formula

$A=\frac{\left|x_1\left(y_2-y_3\right)+x_2\left(y_3-y_1\right)+x_3\left(y_1-y_2\right)\right|}{2}$

$9=\frac{\left|2\left(a-1\right)+6\left(1-4\right)+-1\left(4-a\right)\right|}{2}$

Multiply both sides by 2

$\frac{2\left|2\left(a-1\right)+6\left(1-4\right)-1\left(4-a\right)\right|}{2}=9\cdot \:2$

simplify

$\left|2\left(a-1\right)+6\left(1-4\right)-1\left(4-a\right)\right|=18$

As the area is always positive.

so

$2\left(a-1\right)+6\left(1-4\right)-1\cdot \left(4-a\right)=18$

$2\left(a-1\right)-18-\left(4-a\right)=18$

Add 18 to both sides

$2\left(a-1\right)-18-\left(4-a\right)+18=18+18$

simplify

$2\left(a-1\right)-\left(4-a\right)=36$

$3a-6=36$

$3a=42$

Divide both sides by 3

$\frac{3a}{3}=\frac{42}{3}$

$a=14$

Thus, the value of a = 14
