Variance is the standard deviation squared but we're not going to use that now. Let's first calculate the mean:
mean = (17+13+13+22+11+20)/6 = 16.
Now for each value, let's see how far it is from this mean. We'll square these distances and average them. That's our variance.
17 distance 1 squared = 1
13 distance 3 squared = 9
13 distance 3 squared = 9
22 distance 6 squared = 36
11 distance 5 squared = 25
20 distance 4 squared = 16
Now average these outcomes:
variance = (1+9+9+36+25+16)/6 = 16.
So the variance by coincidence is the same as the mean.
Answer C is your answer.
D.The answer should be about $10,000.The students answer is not correct.
Answer:
I agree with Selena. Since the x's do not repeat, it is a function.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2.86 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
If 1/35 gallon of gas = 1 mile
To travel 100 miles,
1/35 × 100
= 0.0286 × 100
= 2.86 gallons
Therefore, the car needs 2.86 gallons of gas to travel 100 miles.
