Answer:

\sigma = 12.5 ---- sample standard deviation

\sigma^2 = 157.2 ---- sample variance

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a): The sample variance

First, we calculate the midpoint of each class (this is the average of the limits)

So, we have:

x_1 = \frac{56 + 64}{2} = 60

x_2 = \frac{65 + 73}{2} = 69

And so on

So, the table becomes:

\begin{array}{cc}{x} & {f} & {60} & {11} & {69} & {15} & {78} & {14} & {87} & {4} & {96} & 11 \ \end{array}

Calculate the mean

\bar x = \frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}

\bar x = \frac{60*11+69*15+78*14+87*4+96*11}{11+15+14+4+11}

\bar x = \frac{4191}{55}

\bar x = 76.2

The variance is:

\sigma^2 = \frac{\sum f(x - \bar x)^2}{\sum f - 1}

So, we have:

\sigma^2 = \frac{(60 - 76.2)^2*11+(69 - 76.2)^2*15+(78 - 76.2)^2 *14+(87 - 76.2)^2*4+(96 - 76.2)^2*11}{11+15+14+4+11-1}

\sigma^2 = \frac{8488.8}{54}

\sigma^2 = 157.2

The sample standard deviation is:

\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma^2

\sigma = \sqrt{157.2

\sigma = 12.5

Solving (b): The sample variance

In (a), we calculate the sample variance to be:

\sigma^2 = 157.2

659, 400, 211, 748, 351, 902, 400, 359<br> Mean<br> Median<br> Mode<br> Range
scoray [572]

Answer:

mean =503.75

median=400

mode=400

range=691

Step-by-step explanation:

mean= 211+351+359+400+400+659+748+902=4030/8= 503.75

range= highest number -lowest number = 902-211=691

median= 400+400 =800/2= 400

What are the approximate values of the minimum and maximum points of f(x) = x5 − 10x3 + 9x on [-3,3]? A. maximum point: (–2.4, 3
slava [35]

Answer:

(-2.4, 37.014)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are not told how to approach this problem.  

One way would be to graph f(x) = x^5 − 10x^3 + 9x on [-3,3] and then to estimate the max and min of this function on this interval visually.  A good graph done on a graphing calculator would be sufficient info for this estimation.  My graph, on my TI83 calculator, shows that the relative minimum value of f(x) on this interval is between x=2 and x=3 and is approx. -37; the relative maximum value is between x= -3 and x = -2 and is approx. +37.  

Thus, we choose Answer A as closest approx. values of the min and max points on [-3,3].  In Answer A, the max is at (-2.4, 37.014) and the min at (2.4, -37.014.

Optional:  Another approach would be to use calculus:  we'd differentiate f(x) = x^5 − 10x^3 + 9x, set the resulting derivative = to 0 and solve the resulting equation for x.  There would be four x-values, which we'd call "critical values."

For all real numbers a and b, 2a • b = a2 + b2 Is this true or false? Explain why it false or true.
Andru [333]

Answer:

It's false.... correct is a2+2ab+b2

Step-by-step explanation:

This cannot be factored anymore although. when we try to substitute a with 5 and b with 2, the answer in the right hand side of the equation is -9.

That's why it's false.
