Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard deviation is the square root of the variance, and the variance is found by using the mean. So we will do that first. I will use the population variance as opposed to the sample variance since our set of numbers is small.

The mean: 8 + 12 + 15 + 17 + 18 = 70 and divide that by 5 to get

\bar{x}=14 and use this to find the variance in the formula:

s^2=\frac{\sum(x_i-\bar{x})^2}{n} it is a bit difficult to enter that formula in correctly, but here's how it works mathematically:

s^2=\frac{(8-14)^2+(12-14)^2+(15-14)^2+(17-14)^2+(18-14)^2}{5}

Squaring this ensures us that we don't end up with zero, which would be useless.

s^2=\frac{36+4+1+9+16}{5} so

s^2=13.2 which means that the standard deviation is

s = 3.633

(If you do it with n-1 = 4 in the denominator of the variance, you get a standard deviation of 4.062)

Is the Mandelbrot set locally connected?
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It is conjectured that the Mandelbrot set is locally connected. This famous conjecture is known as MLC (for Mandelbrot locally connected). By the work of Adrien Douady and John H. Hubbard, this conjecture would result in a simple abstract "pinched disk" model of the Mandelbrot set. In particular, it would imply the important hyperbolicity conjecture mentioned above.

The work of Jean-Christophe Yoccoz established local connectivity of the Mandelbrot set at all finitely renormalizable parameters; that is, roughly speaking those contained only in finitely many small Mandelbrot copies.[19] Since then, local connectivity has been proved at many other points of {\displaystyle M}M, but the full conjecture is still open.
