Four students have applied to a special program and only one can be accepted. They have taken a battery of 12 tests and all have

exactly the same average score. The standard deviation of their test scores are: Student A = 3.12, Student B = 0.27, Student C = 13.45, Student D = 6.45. If consistency of performance is a criteria for acceptance, which of the four students should be selected?

Answer:B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Every student secure same average score

Standard deviation is denoted by \sigma

\sigma _A=3.12

\sigma _B=0.27

\sigma _C=13.45

\sigma _D=6.45

Consistency is criteria of acceptance then Student should be selected the standard deviation is least for student B.

Standard deviation tells how a data varies from mean Position .

More Deviation from mean indicates less consistency .

Given the following​ function, find f(−5), f(0), and f(4). f(x)=x2+5
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

30, 5 , 21

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute the values of x into f(x) , then

f(- 5) = (- 5)² + 5 = 25 + 5 = 30

f(0) = 0² + 5 = 0 + 5 = 5

f(4) = 4² + 5 = 16 + 5 = 21

Find an equation, or a set of equations, to describe the set of points that are equidistant from the points p(−9, 0, 0) and q(3,
wariber [46]
X = -3.  
The distance from p(-9, 0, 0) is
 d = sqrt((x+9)^2 + y^2 + z^2) 
 The distance from q(3,0,0) is
 d = sqrt((x-3)^2 + y^2 + z^2) 
 Let's set them equal to each other.
 sqrt((x+9)^2 + y^2 + z^2) = sqrt((x-3)^2 + y^2 + z^2)
  Square both sides, then simplify
 (x+9)^2 + y^2 + z^2 = (x-3)^2 + y^2 + z^2
 x^2 + 18x + 81 + y^2 + z^2 = x^2 - 6x + 9 + y^2 + z^2
 18x + 81 = - 6x + 9
 24x + 81 = 9
 24x = -72
 x = -3 
 So the desired equation is x = -3 which defines a plane.
