Answer:

5/3 or 1.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the original line

3x+5y=4 Subtract 3x from both sides

5y = - 3x + 4 Divide both sides by 5

y = (-3/5)x + 4

The original line has a slope of - 3/5 or - 0.6

Find the slope of the perpendicular line

m1 * m2 = - 1

m1 = - 3/5

m2 = -1/(-3/5)

m2 = 5/3

The slope of the perpendicular line is

5/3 or 1.67

Suppose that you had the following data set. 500 200 250 275 300 Suppose that the value 500 was a typo, and it was suppose to be

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

$\bar X_B = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 X_i}{5} =\frac{500+200+250+275+300}{5}=\frac{1525}{5}=305$

$s_B = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 (X_i-\bar X)^2}{n-1}}=\sqrt{\frac{(500-305)^2 +(200-305)^2 +(250-305)^2 +(275-305)^2 +(300-305)^2)}{5-1}} = 115.108$

$\bar X_A = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 X_i}{5} =\frac{-500+200+250+275+300}{5}=\frac{525}{5}=105$

$s_A = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 (X_i-\bar X)^2}{n-1}}=\sqrt{\frac{(-500-105)^2 +(200-105)^2 +(250-105)^2 +(275-105)^2 +(300-105)^2)}{5-1}} = 340.221$

The absolute difference is:

$Abs = |340.221-115.108|= 225.113$

If we find the % of change respect the before case we have this:

$\% Change = \frac{|340.221-115.108|}{115.108} *100 = 195.57\%$

So then is a big change.

Step-by-step explanation:

The subindex B is for the before case and the subindex A is for the after case

Before case (with 500)

For this case we have the following dataset:

500 200 250 275 300

We can calculate the mean with the following formula:

$\bar X_B = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 X_i}{5} =\frac{500+200+250+275+300}{5}=\frac{1525}{5}=305$

And the sample deviation with the following formula:

$s_B = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 (X_i-\bar X)^2}{n-1}}=\sqrt{\frac{(500-305)^2 +(200-305)^2 +(250-305)^2 +(275-305)^2 +(300-305)^2)}{5-1}} = 115.108$

After case (With -500 instead of 500)

For this case we have the following dataset:

-500 200 250 275 300

We can calculate the mean with the following formula:

$\bar X_A = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 X_i}{5} =\frac{-500+200+250+275+300}{5}=\frac{525}{5}=105$

And the sample deviation with the following formula:

$s_A = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 (X_i-\bar X)^2}{n-1}}=\sqrt{\frac{(-500-105)^2 +(200-105)^2 +(250-105)^2 +(275-105)^2 +(300-105)^2)}{5-1}} = 340.221$

And as we can see we have a significant change between the two values for the two cases.

The absolute difference is:

$Abs = |340.221-115.108|= 225.113$

If we find the % of change respect the before case we have this:

$\% Change = \frac{|340.221-115.108|}{115.108} *100 = 195.57\%$

So then is a big change.
