Answer:

The mean carrying load of the beams tested is 908.7 pounds per square foot

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Data class 1: 860-879

Midpoint 1: M1=(860+879)/2=1,739/2→M1=869.5

Number of values in data class 1: n1=2

2. Data class 2: 880-899

Midpoint 2: M2=(880+899)/2=1,779/2→M2=889.5

Number of values in data class 2: n2=5

3. Data class 3: 900-919

Midpoint 3: M3=(900+919)/2=1,819/2→M3=909.5

Number of values in data class 3: n3=10

4. Data class 4: 920-939

Midpoint 4: M4=(920+939)/2=1,859/2→M4=929.5

Number of values in data class 4: n4=6

5. Data class 5: 940-959

Midpoint 5: M5=(940+959)/2=1,899/2→M5=949.5

Number of values in data class 5: n5=1


Mean=Sum(Mi*ni)/Sum(ni)

Mean=(M1*n1+M2*n2+M3*n3+M4*n4+M5*n5)/(n1+n2+n3+n4+n5)

Mean=(869.5*2+889.5*5+909.5*10+929.5*6+949.5*1)/(2+5+10+6+1)

Mean=(1,739+4,447.5+9,095+5,577+949.5)/(24)

Mean=(21,808)/(24)

Mean=908.6666666

Rounding to one decimal place:

Mean=908.7

TRIANGLE CONGRUENCE! PICTURE ADDED. How is QTP congruent to SPT?
shtirl [24]

Answer:

The triangles are congruent because:

  1. QP = ST
  2. angle P = angle T
  3. the side PT is in both triangles

We know when 2 sides of two triangles and the angle between them is congruent, the triangles are congruent.

A group of 120 people touring Europe includes 45 people who speak French, 42 who speak Spanish, and 50 who speak neither languag
lianna [129]

Answer : P(\text{this group will speak both French and Spanish})=0.141666666

Explanation:

Since we have given that

n(U) = 120, where U denotes universal set ,

n(F) = 45, where F denotes who speak French,

n(S) = 42 , where S denotes who speak Spanish,

n(F∪S)' = 50

n(F∪S) = n(U)-n(F∪S) = 120-50 = 70

Now, we know the formula, i.e.

n(F∪s) = n(F)+n(S)-n(F∩S)

⇒  70    = 45+42-n(F∩S)

⇒ 70  =  87- n(F∩S)

⇒ 70-87 = -n(F∩S)

⇒ -17 = -n( F∩S)

⇒  17 = n(F∩S)

P(\text{this group will speak both French and Spanish})= \frac{17}{120}\\P(\text{this group will speak both French and Spanish})=0.141666666
