Answer:

B) is correct; on average, each bag of candy has a weight that is 2.6 oz different than the mean weight of 5 oz.

To find the mean absolute deviation, we first find the mean.  Find the sum of the data points and divide by the number of data points (without the outlier, 21, in it):

(10+3+7+3+4+6+10+1+2+4)/10 = 50/10 = 5

Now we find the difference between each data point and the mean, take its absolute value, and find their sum:

|10-5|+|3-5|+|7-5|+|3-5|+|4-5|+|6-5|+|10-5|+|1-5|+|2-5|+|4-5| =

5+2+2+2+1+1+5+4+3+1 = 26

We now divide this by the number of data points:

26/10 = 2.6

This is a measure of how much each bag of candy varies from the mean.

What is the simplified form of the following expression? <br><br> ^3sqrt(4x/5)
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

= (∛(100x))/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression; ∛(4x/5)

To simplify this we need to make denominator a perfect cube.

So multiply and divide 25 inside the cube root, so that the denominator will become a perfect cube of 5.

∛(4x/5) = ∛((4x/5)×(25/25))

            = ∛(100x/125)

            = ∛(100x/5³)

            <u>= (∛100x)/5</u>

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

You do 12*3 because if 1 sheet of poster board can make 12 post cards, and you have 3 poster boards you will need 3 lots of 12 which is equivalent to 3*12!

Hope this helps!
