Scientists can measure the height in different units but problem could arise when they compare all the measurements. That is the reason there is standard units for measurements.

<span>There may be error arises when an American scientist is measuring the height of an object in inches and other Australian scientist is measuring the height of same object in meters. Their data cannot be compared because they are using different units to measure height.</span>

Answer:

Car were more expensive in 2011

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Mean price of the car in 1965 = $2,650

Standard deviation, s = $1,000

Mean price of the car in 2011 = $30,500

Standard deviation in 2011, s = $9,000

Cost in 1965 = $2,300

Cost in 2011 = $28,000

Now,

z score = [ X - mean ] ÷ s

Therefore,

In 1965

z score = [ $2,300 - $2,650] ÷ 1,000

= -0.35

In 2011

z score = [ $28,000 - $30,500 ] ÷ 9,000

= -0.278

Since,

The standard score in 2011 is higher than in 1965

Hence,

Car were more expensive in 2011

If a girl is dating a guy and the guy is a catfish, what should the girl do to prove it?

dolphi86 [110]

The girl should first prevent getting scammed. She shouldn’t be sharing any personal information about herself or anybody else. Then to try to prove, she can maybe ask to face time during the day, or asks him out to go somewhere(park,movies,etc.,) but make sure you take someone with you like a trusted adult or someone older, and if he keeps making excuses and denying then it’s pretty clear it’s a catfish.
