d deviation for the given sample data. Include appropriate units in the results. How useful are the measures of variation for someone searching for a​ room? 234 160 119 131 218 207 146 141 The range of the sample data is? The Standard deviation of the sample data is? The variance of the sample data is? How useful are the measures of variation for someone searching for a​ room? A. The measures of variation are not very useful because when searching for a​ room, low​ prices, location, and good accommodations are more important than the amount of variation in the area. B. The measures of variation are very useful because a person does not want to buy a room where the variation is too low. C. The measures of variation are not very useful because the values are nominal data that do not measure or count​ anything, so the resulting statistics are meaningless. D. The measures of variation are very useful because a person does not want to buy a room where the variation is too high.

Answer:

Range = 115$

Standard Deviation = 43.76$

Variance = 1915.142$

Option  A) The measures of variation are not very useful because when searching for a​ room, low​ prices, location, and good accommodations are more important than the amount of variation in the area.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the data for  prices in dollars for one night at different hotels in a certain region.

234, 160, 119, 131, 218, 207, 146, 141        

Range:

Sorted data: 119, 131, 141, 146, 160, 207, 218, 234

\text{Range} = 234-119 = 115\$

Standard Deviation:

\text{Standard Deviation} = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n-1}}  

where x_i are data points, \bar{x} is the mean and n is the number of observations.  

Mean = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observation}}

Mean =\displaystyle\frac{1356}{8} = 169.5

Sum of squares of differences = 4160.25 + 90.25 + 2550.25 + 1482.25 +  2352.25 + 1406.25 + 552.25 + 812.25 = 13406

\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{13406}{7}} = 43.76\$

Variance =

\sigma^2 = 1915.142\$

Measure of variance for someone searching for room:

Option  A) The measures of variation are not very useful because when searching for a​ room, low​ prices, location, and good accommodations are more important than the amount of variation in the area.

Two equivalent expressions have the same _____ even though they may be written in different ways.
Svetach [21]

Answer:

Value

Step-by-step explanation:

Value because order can be different and they can still be the same!

For example, 3x+2 = 2+3x different order but still are equivalent!

x = -2/3, so their values are equivalent!

Hope this helps!

Please mark brainliest if you think I helped! Would really appreciate!

A store is selling five cans of tomato sauce for $5.25. What is the unit price?
Svetach [21]
The unit price is tantamount to saying the price of each. For this item, we are asked to determine the price of each can. Thus, it can be determined by dividing the price to number of cans.
                           $5.25 / 5 = 1.05
Thus, each can of tomato sauce costs $1.05.

Demarco paid $3.19$3.19 per gallon both times that he stopped for gas on a weekend trip. He bought 12.5312.53 gallons of gas the
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer: The total cost in dollars of the gas is $77.80.

Step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

Amount of gallon of gas he bought for the first time = 12.53

Amount of gallon of gas he bought for the second time = 11.86

According to question, He paid $3.19 per gallon both the times that he stopped for gas on a weekend trip.

So, our expression that shows the total cost in dollars of the gas he bought on this trip is given by

12.53\times 3.19+11.86\times 3.19\\\\\text{ using distributive law}\\\\=3.19(12.53+11.86)\\\\=\$77.80

Hence, the total cost in dollars of the gas is $77.80.
