Answer:

  • 3.0

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample standard deviation is found by steps below.

<u>Find the mean:</u>

  • μ = (9 + 15 + 13 + 9 + 15)/5 = 12.2

<u>Find deviations from the mean and their squares:</u>

  • 9 - 12.2 = - 3.2 ⇒ (-3.2)² = 10.24
  • 15 - 12.2 = 2.8 ⇒ 2.8² = 7.84
  • 13 - 12.2 = 0.8 ⇒ 0.8² = 0.64
  • 9 - 12.2 = - 3.2 ⇒ (-3.2)² = 10.24
  • 15 - 12.2 = 2.8 ⇒ 2.8² = 7.84

<u>Sum the squares:</u>

  • 10.24*2 + 7.84*2 + 0.64 = 36.8

<u>Divide by N - 1 (N - number of samples):</u>

  • 36.8/(5 - 1) = 9.2

<u>Square root is the sample standard deviation:</u>

  • σ = √9.2 = 3.0 (rounded)

A rock is launched from a cannon. After 1 second, the rock is 58 feet in the air; after 2 seconds, it is 112 feet in the air. Us
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: This is the quadratic function:

h(x)=ax²+bx+c

We have two points:

(1,58)

(2,112)

Now, we calculate this quadratic funtion.

we assume that h(0)=0

Therefore:

a(0)²+b(0)+c=0

c=0

(1,58)

a(1)²+b(1)=58

a+b=58  (1)

(2,112)

a(2)²+b(2)=112

4a+2b=112

2a+b=56  (1)

With the equations (1) and (2) we make a system of equations:

a+b=58

2a+b=56

we can solve this system of equations by reduction method.

-(a+b=58)

2a+b=56

---------------------

a=-2

-2(a+b=58)

2a+b=56

-------------------

      -b=-60  ⇒  b=60

The function is:

h(x)=ax²+bx+c

h(x)=-2x²+60x

Now find the height, in feet, of the rock after 10 seconds in the air.

h(10)=-2(10)²+60(10)

h(10)=-200+600=400

Answer: 400 ft.

Evaluate Combination (6,6)
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

nCx = \frac{n!}{x! (n-x)!}

On this case n =6 and x =6 we got:

6C6 = \frac{6!}{6! (6-6)!} = \frac{6!}{6! 0!}= \frac{6!}{6!}=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The utility for the combination formula is in order to find the number of ways to order a set of elements

For this case we want to find the following expression:

6C6

And the general formula for combination is given by:

nCx = \frac{n!}{x! (n-x)!}

On this case n =6 and x =6 we got:

6C6 = \frac{6!}{6! (6-6)!} = \frac{6!}{6! 0!}= \frac{6!}{6!}=1
