Mathematics
1 answer:
maw [93]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Option A)

s = \dfrac{\text{Range}}{4}        

Step-by-step explanation:

Range Rule of Thumb

  • The range Rule of thumb states that the range is four times the standard deviation.
  • The standard deviation is a measure of dispersion.

\text{Range = Maximum - Minimum}\\\text{s: Standard Deviation}\\\text{Range rule of Thumb:}\\\text{Range} = 4\times s\\\\s = \dfrac{\text{Maximum - Minimum}}{4}

  • Thus, the correct answer is

s = \dfrac{\text{Range}}{4}

If a rectangle is altered by increasing its length by 20 percent and its width by 10 percent, its area increases by a percent. W
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the formula for the area of a rectangle is:

A=lw

Where l is the our length and w is our width.

If we increase our length by 20%, this means that we add 20% or 0.2 of our old length to our old length. So, our new length will be:

l_{new}=l+.2l

Combine like terms:

l_{new}=1.2l

Similarly, if we increase our width by 10%, this means that we add 10% or 0.1 of our old width to our old width. So, our new width is:

w_{new}=0.1w+w

Combine like terms:

w_{new}=1.1w

Therefore, our new area will be:

A_{new}=(l_{new})(w_{new})

Substitute 1.2l and 1.1w. This yields:

A_{new}=1.2l(1.1w)

Multiply:

A_{new}=1.32lw

Our old area is:

A_{old}=lw

So, our area increased by a factor of 1.32.

This is the same as 32% of our old area.

So, our answer is D.

And we're done!

What is the slope of the line through (-5,-10) and(-1, 5)?
Mila [183]

Answer: The slope is 15/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

M = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

M = (5 - (-10))/(-1 - (-5))

M = (5 + 10)/(-1 + 5)

M = 15/4

Merina is scheduled to make two loan payments to Bradford in the amount of $1,000 each, two months and nine months from now. Mer
Svetach [21]

well, we're assuming all along that Merina owes Bradford $2000, because in the 1st scenario, she was going to pay twice $1000.

on the 2nd scenario, she'll be paying the same $2000 but split 7 months from now and then 7 months later, same 2000 bucks, at which point Bradford applied 8.5% interest.

using those assumptions, since the wording is not quite clear, we can say that Merina is simply paying 2000 bucks plus the 8.5%

\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{8.5\% of 2000}}{\left( \cfrac{8.5}{100} \right)2000}\implies 170 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{\stackrel{principal}{2000}~~ + ~~\stackrel{interest}{170}}{2}\implies \stackrel{\textit{two equal payments of}}{1085}
