Answer:

<u>The correct answer s B. 2.21</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three steps to calculate the standard deviation of the set of data given.

n = 5 (5 numbers in the set)

1. Calculate the mean, this way:

(1.2 + 2.3 + 5.2 + 6.6 + 4.8)/5 = 20.1/5 = 4.02

μ = 4.02

2. Calculate the variance, this way:

Sum of the squared difference between each number of the set and the mean divided by the number of elements of the sample minus one.

[(1.2 - 4.02)² + (2.3 - 4.02)² + (5.2 - 4.02)² + (6.6 - 4.02)² + (4.8 - 4.02)²]/4 =

19.568/4 = 4.892

σ² = 4.892

3. Finally, the standard deviation. this way:

Standard deviation is the square root of the variance.

σ² = 4.892

√σ² = √4.892

σ = 2.21

<u>The correct answer s B. 2.21</u>

Timmy estimated he would spend $9 at the candy store. He went a little over-budget and spent $12. What was the percent error?
kap26 [50]
<h2>Answer :</h2>

  • Error (e) = 12 - 9 = $ 3

  • assumed value (a) = $ 9

\boxed{ \mathrm{ \% \: error = \dfrac{error}{assumed \: value} \times 100}}

  • \mathrm{ \% \: error =\dfrac{3}{9} ×100}

  • \mathrm{ \% \: error = \dfrac{1}{3} ×100}

  • \mathrm{ \% \: error = 33.33 \%}

Help!
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Note:

1 gal = 4 quarts

1 pint = 0.5 quart

Re-writing all the choices in dollars and quarts and calculating how much each quart costs

A)  $1 per 1 quart

B)  $2 per gallon = $2 per 4 quarts = $2 ÷ 4 quarts = $0.50 per quart

C)  $1.50 per 2 quarts = $1.50 ÷ 2 quarts = $0.75 per quart

D)  $0.50 per 1 pint = $0.50 per 0.5 quart = $0.50 ÷ 0.5 quart = $1 per quart

If you compare all of the above, it is clear that answer B ($0.50 per quart) is the cheapest rate and hence the best deal.
