Which data set is the most spread from it's mean?

laila [671]

Answer

C. 49, 17, 4, 18

Step by step explanation

Here mean of all the data set is 88

To find the most spread of data, we need to find the range.

range of set A = The highest value - the lowest value = 36-6 = 30

Range of set B = 30-15 = 15

Range of set C = 49-4 = 45

Range of set D = 30-14= 16

Here the highest range is in Set C.

Therefore, answer is C. 49, 17, 4, 18

What is the measurement of angle POR

IgorLugansk [536]

Let us observe the given figure,

When two lines intersect each other, the angles opposite to each other are Vertically Opposite Angles. Vertically opposite angles are always equal in measure.

As, we can observe that the given lines intersect each other, and they form vertically opposite angles as $\angle POR , \angle SOQ$ and $\angle POS , \angle ROQ$

Therefore, $\angle POR = \angle SOQ$

Substituting the given measures of the angles, we get

$91-x^\circ = x+ 7^\circ$

$91-7 = x + x$

$84 = 2x$

$x = \frac{84}{2}$

So, x = $42^\circ$

Since, the measure of angle POR = $(91-x)^\circ$

= $(91-42)^\circ$

= $49^\circ$

Therefore, the measure of angle POR is 49 degrees.

In a set of 3 numbers the first is a positive integer, the second is 3 more than the first and the 3rd is a square of the second

Molodets [167]

Given:

In a set of 3 numbers the first is a positive integer, the second is 3 more than the first and the 3rd is a square of the second.

To find:

The equation for the given situation if the sum of the numbers is 77.

Solution:

a. Let the first number in the set is x.

The second is 3 more than the first. So, the second number is $(x+3)$ .

The 3rd number is a square of the second. So, the third number is $(x+3)^2$ .

Therefore, the first, second and third numbers are $x,(x+3),(x+3)^2$ respectively.

b. The sum of the numbers is 77.

First number + Second number + Third number = 77

c. So, the equation in terms of x is:

$x+(x+3)+(x+3)^2=77$

Therefore, the required equation is $x+(x+3)+(x+3)^2=77$ .

d. On simplification, we get

$x+x+3+x^2+6x+9=77$ $[\because (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2]$

$x^2+(6x+x+x)+(3+9)=77$

$x^2+8x+12=77$

Subtract 77 from both sides.

$x^2+8x+12-77=77-77$

$x^2+8x-65=0$

Therefore, the simplified form of the required equation is $x^2+8x-65=0$ .
