Listed below are prices in dollars for one night at different hotels in a certain region. Find the​ range, variance, and standar

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.

Answer:

-1/2, 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

(x -7)(-4x -2)=0

This means that;

x - 7  = 0 and -4x - 2 = 0

x = 0+7 snd -4x = 2

x = 7 and x =  -2/4

x = 7 and -1/2

Hence the solution from least to greatest is -1/2, 7

I just don't know where to start. I'm doing Algebra 2 stuff with sohcahtoa.
mezya [45]

Hello!

As you can see, 22 is the opposite angle. We are looking for the adjacent angle. Let's just call it x. Using SOH CAH TOA, we see that the tangent is the opposite divided by the adjacent side. Let's use that.

tan54≈1.38

This gives us the equation below.

1.38=22/x

Let's solve this equation for x.

1.38x=22

x=22/1.38

x=15.94

Therefore, the length of the shadow is about 15.94 meters.

I hope this helps!
