Answer:

Given that The data to represent average test scores for a class of 16 students includes an outlier value of 78.

We can find sum of all 16 test scores = 84(16) = 1344

Outlier found = 78

If outlier is removed new sum = 1344-78 = 1266

Number of entries without outlier = 15

New average = 1266/12 =84.4

We find that average of new data increases.

Also whenever we remove outlier std deviation also would be reduced.

Answer:
x² - 10x + 21

Explanation:
To answer this question, we will simply multiply each term from the first bracket by each term from the second and then combine like terms to get the final expression.

This can be done as follows:
(x - 3)(x - 7)
x(x) + x(-7) -3(x) -3(-7)
x² - 7x - 3x + 21
x² - 10x + 21

Hope this helps :)

Find the value of x - Secant and Tangent Angles in Circles
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

  C.  70°

Step-by-step explanation:

The inscribed angle marked 15° intercepts an arc that is double that measure, so the intercepted arc on the right is 2×15° = 30°.

The external angle marked 20° is half the difference of the intercepted arcs, so is ...

  20° = (1/2)(x - 30°)

  40° = x - 30° . . . . . . multiply by 2

  70° = x . . . . . . . . . . . add 30°

The value of x is 70°.
