(c) See Explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Cigarette tax for 20 regions
Solving (a): The population mean
This is calculated as:




So, we have:


Solving (b): The population standard deviation
This is calculated as:



So:



Solving (c):
Population mean tells the average amount while the standard deviation represents the spread from the calculated mean
Option (4) is correct
Answer:
79/25
Work:
Firstly, you have to change the decimal portion of 3.16 (0.16) into a fraction, then you simplify it by a common factor, which is 4. You then convert your whole number, which is 3, into an improper fraction by multiplying it by 25 and making that the numerator, 25 being the denominator of the fraction. Then, you add the two fractions and voila! You have a simplified fraction!
0.16 = 16/100
16/100 = 4/25
3 x 25 = 75
75/25 + 4/25 = 79/25

Answer:
(t, u, w) = (1, -2, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator makes short work of this, giving the solution as ...
(t, u, w) = (1, -2, -2)
__
There are many ways to solve this "by hand." Here's one of them.
Add the first and third equations. Their sum is ...
-3t +4w = -11 . . . . . [eq4]
Add this to twice the second equation. That sum is ...
(-3t +4w) +2(-4t -2w) = (-11) +2(0)
-11t = -11
t = 1
Substituting this into the second equation gives ...
-4(1) -2w = 0
w +2 = 0 . . . . divide by -2
w = -2 . . . . add -2
Substituting for t in the third equation lets us find u.
2(1) -2u = 6
-1 +u = -3 . . . . . divide by -2
u = -2 . . . . add 1
The solution is (t, u, w) = (1, -2, -2).
