If you need to evaluate the answer is 1.2
Let d = discriminant
d = b^2 - 4ac
Let a = 2, b = 4 and c = -9
We now plug and chug.
d = (4)^2 - 4(2)(-9)
d = 16 - 8(-9)
d = 16 + 72
d = 88
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The larger standard deviation, the greater the variability. So even before looking at the data, we can eliminate a) and c).
The standard deviations of men's preference of shortest and tallest acceptable height (3.7 and 2.7, respectively) were more than the standard deviations of women's preference of shortest and tallest acceptable height (2.6 and 2.2, respectively).
So men showed greater variability overall because the standard deviations for men were larger than for women. Answer D.
The difference between every two adjacent members of the series is constant and equal to 6.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is solved using the Pythagorean theorem (a2+b2=c2). In this formula a and b are the legs of the right triangle while c is the hypotenuse.
Using the labels of our triangle we have:
o2+a2=h2
\dpi{100} h^{2}=(10ft)^{2} +(17ft)^{2}
h2=100ft2+289ft2
h=389ft2−−−−−√
→19.7ft
