Answer:

The mean of the distribution of heights of students at a local school is 63 inches and the standard deviation is 4 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The normal curve approximating the distribution of the heights of 1000 students at a local school is shown below.

For a normal curve, the mean, median and mode are the same and represents the center of the distribution.

The center of the normal curve below is at the height 63 inches.

Thus, the mean of the distribution of heights of students at a local school is 63 inches.

The standard deviation represents the spread or dispersion of the data.

From the normal curve it can be seen that values are equally distributed, i.e. the difference between two values is of 4 inches.

So, the standard deviation is 4 inches.

See picture below. What is the difference between 4∑n=1 2n+1 and 4∑i=1 (2i+1)?
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

\sum 2n+1= \boxed{\big( \sum_{i=1} ^{4}2n \big) +1}

And,

$ \sum (2i+1)= \sum (2i)+ \sum_{i=1} ^{4} (1) $

$=\sum_{i=1} ^{4}(2i) + 1+1+1+1 $

$=\boxed{\Big(\sum_{n=1} ^{4}(2n)\Big) +4}.... \text{Variable in Summation doesn't matter}$

Hence the difference is 3.

What is the slope of the line perpendicular to y=-3x+4?
inessss [21]

The perpendicular line would have a slope of 1/3.

Perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes.

To do the opposite, take the original slope (-3) and change the sign (3).

To do the reciprocal, take the slope we changed (3) and flip it as a fraction (1/3).

This gives us a new slope of 1/3.

The slope of a line is 7/10 . One point on the line has coordinates (1, 2). Which ordered pair represents another point on the l
mash [69]
(x,y)

y=mx+b
m=slope
b=yintercept
slope=7/10
one point is (1,2) or x=1, then y=2
find b
y=7/10x+b
2=7/10(1)+b
2=7/10+b
minus 7/10 both sides
1 and 3/10=b
13/10=b
y=7/10x+13/10
input values for x and get values for y
one point is (0,13/10)
