Answer:

Mean is 76 and standard deviation is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let \mu be the mean and \sigma is the standard deviation of the given data,

Thus, 95% of the data lies between \mu-2\sigma and \mu+2\sigma

Now, 95% of students at school weigh between 62 kg and 90 kg,

So, the mean is,

\mu=\frac{62+90}{2}=\frac{152}{2}=76

\implies 76+2\sigma = 90

2\sigma = 14

\implies \sigma = 7

We can calculate (62 + 90) / 2 = 76. it's <span>known that 95% lies between the mean and twice the standard deviation. </span><span>if the mean is "μ" and the standard deviation is "σ": </span><span>μ-2σ and μ+2σ. i</span><span>f μ=76, then </span><span>76+2σ = 90, so 2σ = 14, so σ = 7.
</span>
<span>the mean is 76 and the standard deviation 7. </span>

Complete the slope-intercept form of the linear equation that represents the relationship in the table.
nevsk [136]

According to the given table, the slope-intercept equation of the line is given by:

y = -2x + 1

The equation of a line, in <em>slope-intercept</em> form, is given by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • The slope is m.
  • The intercept is b.

In this problem, we are given two points, (3,-5) and (-2,5).

  • The slope is given by <u>change in y divided by change in x</u>, hence:

m = \frac{5 - (-5)}{-2 - 3} = -2

Hence:

y = -2x + b

Point (3,-5) means that when x = 3, y = -5, which is used to find b.

y = -2x + b

-5 = -2(3) + b

b = 1

Hence, the equation of the line is:

y = -2x + 1

If the dimensions of a pentagonal prism are quadrupled, then the surface area of the prism is multiplied by eight.
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

false

Step-by-step explanation:

the relationship between lengths/dimensions and areas is that areas are created by multiplying 2 dimensions.

when you quadruple (×4) the dimensions, then the areas are growing with the square of the factor (×4×4 = ×16), because the factor goes twice into the multiplication : one time for every dimension involved.

so, quadrupling the dimensions would multiply the areas by 16.
