The answer is
7.9306Using the formula in the attached:
Where: xi = sample value; μ = sample mean; n = sample size
1.) Calculate the mean first:
μ = 12.0 + 18.3 + 29.6 + 14.3 + 27.8 / 5
= 102 / 5
μ = 20.4
2.) Using the mean, calculate (xi - μ)² for each value:
(12.0 - 20.4)² = 70.56
(18.3 - 20.4)² = 4.41
(29.6 - 20.4)² = 84.64
(14.3 - 20.4)² = 37.21
(27.8 - 20.4)² = 54.76
3.) Sum the squared differences and divide by n - 1.
μ = 70.56 + 4.41 + 84.64 + 37.21 + 54.76
= 251.58 / 5-1
μ =
62.895 (this is now called sample variance)
4.) Get the square root of the sample variance:
√62.895 =
7.9306
Answer: Area = 6m²
Smaller number = 16
Hours = 9.6 h
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle is 5 meters longer than its width. If the length is shortened by 2 meters and width is increased by 1 meter, the area remains the same. Find the area of the rectangle.
1) w = x m 2) w = x + 1 m
l = x + 5 m l = x + 5 - 2 = x + 3 m
A₁ = A₂
A = w*l
A₁ = x(x+5) = x² + 5x
A₂ = (x+1)(x+2) = x² + x + 2x + 2 = x² + 3x + 2
A₁ = A₂
x² + 5x = x² + 3x + 2
5x - 3x = 2
2x = 2
x = 1
A₁ = x(x+5) = 1.6 = 6 m²
The ratio of two numbers is 2:5. If the larger number is 40, what is the smaller number.
<u> 2 </u> = <u> x </u>
5 40
5x = 80
x = 80/5 = 16
Sixteen construction workers can finish cementing a floor of a building in 3 hours. On a certain day, only 5 construction workers are available for the job. How long will it take the 5 construction workers to do the cementing job?

16 3
5 x
↑ ↓ inversely proportional
<u> 5 </u> = <u> 3 </u>
16 x
5x = 16*3
5x = 48
x = 48/5
x = 9.6 h
Answer:
$28
Step-by-step explanation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 10%/100 = 0.1 per year,
then, solving our equation
I = 70 × 0.1 × 4 = 28
I = $ 28.00
The simple interest accumulated
on a principal of $ 70.00
at a rate of 10% per year
for 4 years is $ 28.00.
