Answer:

a) No 95% of values will fall between (24;64); 68,27% will fall between (34;54)

b)71,83 % will fall between 34 and 64 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical rule establishes, for a  normal distribution with mean μ and σ as standard deviation:

In interval   μ  ±  σ    or   ( μ  +  σ ;  μ  -  σ) we should find 68.27 % of all values of the population, and by simmetry 68.27/2 = 34,14 % should be over the mean and the other half would  be values below the mean

Therefore in our case

μ  +  σ  =  44 + 10  =  54

And

μ  -  σ  = 44 - 10   = 34

a) Then  68,34 % of values will fall in this interval

We know now that value 34 is 1* σ   below the mean, and is at the limit of 34,14 %

b) μ  +  2*σ  =   44 * 2*10  =  44 + 20  =  64

64 is the upper limit for the interval   μ  +  2*σ  and we know that 95.45 % of all values will fall between (  μ  -  2*σ  ;  μ  +  2*σ ) and by simmetry just one side of this interval (the right side ) will have 95.45/2 = 47;73 %

Then in interval going from ( 34 ; 64 ) we shoud find 47.73 + 34,14

71,83 % of all values will fall between 34 and 64

Answer:

  m∠H = 38°

Step-by-step explanation:

External angle GFD is the sum of internal angles G and H.

  14x +1 = 89° +(5x -7)

  9x = 81°

  x = 9°

Then the measure of angle H is ...

  angle H = 5(9°) -7° = 38°

Aron charges an initial service fee of 10$ plus 15$ per hour , what is X?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

The linear function becomes:

y = 15x + 10

Here, 'x' is the number of hours, b=10 is the initial service fee i.e. $10, 15 is slope or rate of change, and 'y' is the cost.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope-intercept of a linear function is

y = mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Note: Slope is also termed as the 'rate of change'.

Given that Aron charges an initial service fee of 10$.

Thus, the y-intercept = b = 10

As the rate of change = 15$ per hour

so the slope = m = 15

Therefore, the linear function becomes:

y = mx+b

y = 15x + 10

Here, 'x' is the number of hours, b=10 is the initial service fee i.e. $10, 15 is slope or rate of change, and 'y' is the cost.

For example, in one hour i.e. x = 1, the cost 'y' will be:

y = 15x + 10

y = 15(1) + 10

y = 25 + 10

y = $25

Therefore, in one hour (x=1), the cost will be: y = $25

Which one of the following is always true?a. The coefficient of variation measures variability in a positively skewed data set r
Tom [10]

Answer:

C. The coefficient of variation is a measure of relative dispersion that expresses the standard deviation as a percentage of the mean, for any data on a ratio scale and an interval scale

Step-by-step explanation:

Th Coefficient of Variance is a measure of dispersion that can be calculated using the formula:

CV = \frac{\sigma_{x} }{\mu_{x} } * 100%

Where \sigma{x} is the Standard Deviation

and \mu_{x} is the sample mean

From the formula written above, it is shown that the Coefficient of Variation expresses the Standard Deviation as a percentage of the mean.

Coefficient of variation can be used to compare positive as well as negative data on the ratio and interval scale, it is not only used for positive data.

The Interquartile Range is not a measure of central tendency, it is a measure of dispersion.
