150*5.5=825
If I'm right, the actual length of the border is 825 miles. Hope I helped!

What is an example of when you would want consistent data and, therefore, a small standard deviation?

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

12.1, 12.3,12.4,12.5,12.3,12.1,12.2

$\bar X= \frac{12.1+12.3+12.4+12.5+12.3+12.1+12.2}{7}=12.271$

And for the standard deviation we can use the following formula:

$s= \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

And after replace we got:

$s = 0.1496$

And as we can ee we got a small value for the deviation <1 on this case.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example if we have the following data:

12.1, 12.3,12.4,12.5,12.3,12.1,12.2

We see that the data are similar for all the observations so we would expect a small standard deviation

If we calculate the sample mean we can use the following formula:

$\bar X=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

And replacing we got:

$\bar X= \frac{12.1+12.3+12.4+12.5+12.3+12.1+12.2}{7}=12.271$

And for the standard deviation we can use the following formula:

$s= \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

And after replace we got:

$s = 0.1496$

And as we can ee we got a small value for the deviation <1 on this case.

First look at the difference of the items sold between the 2 people. Clearly Lizzie sold 9 more boxes of peaches and earned 162 more dollars. We can solve and get that each box of peaches are worth 18 dollars. Then use what we found out --> 4 boxes of apples+1 boxes of peaches = 54 dollars. so 4 boxes of apples are worth 54-18=36 dollars. and thus each box of apples are worth 9 dollars.

Answer: each box of apples are wroth 9 dollars and each box of peaches are wroth 18 dollars. Done!

A certain virus infects one in every 300 people. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 90% of the time when t

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

a) P[A/B] = 0,019 or P[A/B] = 1,9 %

b) P[A- /B-] = 0,9996 or P[A- /B-] = 99,96 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayes Theorem :

P[A/B] = P(A) * P[B/A] / P(B)

The branches of events are as follows

Condition 1 real infection 1/300 and not infection 299/300

Then

1.- 1/300 299/300

When the test is done (virus present) 0,9 (+) 0,15 (-)

2.- 299/300

When the test is done ( no virus ) 0,15 (+) 0,85 (-)

Then:

P(A) = event person infected P(B) = person test positive

a) P[A/B] = P(A) * P[B/A] / P(B)

where P(A) = 1/300 = 0,0033 P[B/A] = 0,9

Then P(A) * P[B/A] = 0,0033*0,9 = 0,00297

P(B) is ( 1/300 )*0,9 + (299/300)*0,15

P(B) = 0,0033*0,9 + 0,9966*0,15 ⇒ P(B) = 0,1524

Finally

P[A/B] = 0,00297 /0,1524

P[A/B] = 0,019 or P[A/B] = 1,9 %

b) Following sames steps:

P[A- /B-] = (299/300) * 0,85 / (299/300) * 0,85 + (1/300 * 0,1)

P[A- /B-] = 0,8471 /0,8474

P[A- /B-] = 0,9996 or P[A- /B-] = 99,96 %
