Answer:

2.8

Step-by-step explanation:

1) find the mean of the data set. = 15

2) find the abs value of the diff between each data value and the mean: |data value – mean|.

|10-15|=5, |20-15|=5, |15-15|=0, |17-15|=2, |13-15|=2

3) find the sum of the abs values of the diff = 14

4) divide the sum of the abs value by the number of data values = 14/5 = 2.8

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

a. The number of custom necklaces that can be manufactured if each requires 2 7/8 ounces of gold is 74 necklaces.

b. The value of the gold in each necklace is $1761

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Number of necklaces

2 $7/8$ ounces of gold=2.875

No of necklaces=212.75oz x 1 necklaces/2.875oz

=74 necklaces

(b)Value of gold in each necklace

There are 2.875 oz of 14K gold in each necklace. Pure gold is 24K.

Mass of pure gold=2.875oz x 14k/24k

=1.677083oz

Pure 24K gold is worth $1050/oz.

Value of pure gold=1.677oz x 1050/1oz

= 1760.9 dollars

The value of the gold in each necklace is $1761
