Step-by-step explanation:

- 5 (x - 1) = 40(Multiply -5 by the values in the bracket)

-5x + 5 = 40(Subtract 5 on both sides)

-5x = 40 - 5

-5x = 35 (Divide both sides by -5)

x=-7

Help please on this math problem: The prices of backpacks at a store are 22, 16, 39, 35, 19, 34, 20, and 26. Find the Mean Absol

Ivanshal [37]

Answer: 7.22
(note: this is a result after rounding. The result before rounding was 7.21875)

========================================================

Explanation:

Given Set of Values = {22, 16, 39, 35, 19, 34, 20, 26}

Add up the values: 22+16+39+35+19+34+20+26 = 211
Divide that sum by 8 as there are 8 values: 211/8 = 26.375

The mean is 26.375

Now subtract the mean from each data value. Apply the absolute value to ensure the difference is never negative

|22 - 26.375| = 4.375
|16 - 26.375| = 10.375
|39 - 26.375| = 12.625
|35 - 26.375| = 8.625
|19 - 26.375| = 7.375
|34 - 26.375| = 7.625
|20 - 26.375| = 6.375
|26 - 26.375| = 0.375

Add up those results
4.375+10.375+12.625+8.625+7.375+7.625+6.375+0.375 = 57.75
Then divide by 8
57.75/8 = 7.21875

The mean absolute deviation of the prices is 7.21875
Rounded to two decimal places, it is 7.22
Since we're talking about money, it makes sense to round to the nearest penny.

F(1)=_________________________

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

f(1) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of f(1) simply means what is the corresponding output we would get for an input of 1.

This also implies that for what of y is x equal to 1?

From the graph, when x = 1, y = 1.

Thus:

f(1) = 1

What is the value of x in the figure? (Figure included.)

kotykmax [81]

See those lines that are pependicular
meanins that those lines are same legnth
in triangle, if 2 sides are same measure legnth then the angles oposite those sides are same measure

therefor top right and top left angle is 42

remember that vertical angles are congruent

remmeber all angles ad to 180 in a triangle

so therefor look at top triangle
top right angle is 42
top left is 42
bottom must be x
total is 180 so
42+42+x=180
84+x=180
minus 84 fromboth sides
x=96

answer is 96 degrees

In a completely randomized experimental design, three brands of paper towels were tested for their ability to absorb water. Equa

arlik [135]

Answer:

Yes. At this significance level, there is evidence to support the claim that there is a difference in the ability of the brands to absorb water.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete:

The significance level is 0.05.

The data is:

Brand X: 91, 100, 88, 89

Brand Y: 99, 96, 94, 99

Brand Z: 83, 88, 89, 76

We have to check if there is a significant difference between the absorbency rating of each brand.

Null hypothesis: all means are equal

$H_0:\mu_x=\mu_y=\mu_z$

Alternative hypothesis: the means are not equal

$H_a: \mu_x\neq\mu_y\neq\mu_z$

We have to apply a one-way ANOVA

We start by calculating the standard deviation for each brand:

$s_x^2=30,\,\,s_y^2=6,\,\,s_z^2=35.33$

Then, we calculate the mean standard error (MSE):

$MSE=(\sum s_i^2)/a=(30+6+35.33)/3=71.33/3=23.78$

Now, we calculate the mean square between (MSB), but we previously have to know the sample means and the mean of the sample means:

$M_x=92,\,\,M_y=97,\,\,M_z=84\\\\M=(92+97+84)/3=91$

The MSB is then:

$s^2=\dfrac{\sum(M_i-M)^2}{N-1}\\\\\\s^2=\dfrac{(92-91)^2+(97-91)^2+(84-91)^2}{3-1}\\\\\\s^2=\dfrac{1+36+49}{2}=\dfrac{86}{2}=43\\\\\\\\MSB=ns^2=4*43=172$
