Answer:

See the detailed answers below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Ratio= 1:4:7

combined ratio= 1+4+7= 12

Total amount= $636,000

Apply the part to all method

The first person will take

1/12= x/ 636,000

cross multiply

12x= 636,000*1

x= 636,000/12

x= 53000

The second person will take

4/12= x/ 636,000

cross multiply

12x= 636,000*4

x= 2544000/12

x= 212000

The third person will take

7/12= x/ 636,000

cross multiply

12x= 636,000*7

x= 4452000/12

x= 371000

A triangle has a perimeter of 33cm. If the three sides of the triangle are n, 3n−4, and 3n−5, what is the length of each side?

lara [203]

Just did this one.

The perimeter is the sum of the sides.

n + (3n - 4) + (3n - 5) = 33

7n - 9 = 33

7n = 42

n = 6

3n-4=18-4=14

3n-5=13

Check: 6+14+13=33, good

Answer: 6 cm, 14 cm, 13 cm

Complete the chart to find the mean, variance, and standard deviation. Remember to use commas and round numbers to the nearest t

vitfil [10]

Answer: The mean of the data is 433.75, variance of the data is 99667.19 and the standard deviation of the data is 315.7011.

Explanation:

The given data is 900, 35, 500 and 300.

The number of observation is 4.

Formula of mean is,

$\text{Mean}=\frac{\text{Sum of observations}}{\text{Number of observations}}$

$\bar{X}=\frac{900+35+50+300}{4} =433.75$

The formula of variance is given below,

$\sigma^2=\frac{1}{n}\sum{(X-\bar{X})^2}$

$\sigma^2=\frac{398668.75}{4}$

$\sigma^2=99667.19$

The variance of the data is 99667.19

$\sigma=\sqrt{99667.19}$

$\sigma=315.7011$

The standard deviation of the data is 315.7011.

The other information or values of given chart is shown in the attached table.
