Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is A because well 3x would not change and 17x would not change but 7 and 5 would change because they are not variable numbers So when u do the mah you would get 3x2+17x -2
4x + 3 + x - 2 +4x +3 +x - 2
5x + 1 + 4x + 3 + x - 2
5x + 1 + 5x + 1
10x + 2
Your answer is 140
so yeah i have to keep typing because its too short and im done
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given are 3 data sets with values as:
(i) 8 9 10 11 12 ... Mean =10
(ii) 7 9 10 11 13 ... Mean =10
(iii) 7 8 10 12 13 ... Mean =10
We see that data set shows mean deviations as
(i) -2 -1 0 1 2
(ii) -3 -1 0 1 3
(iii) -3 -2 0 2 3
Since variance is the square of std deviation, we find that std deviation is larger when variance is larger.
Variance is the sum of squares of (x-mean). Whenever x-mean increases variance increases and also std deviation.
Hence we find that without calculations also (i) has least std dev followed by (ii) and then (iii)
(i) (ii) (iii) is the order.
b) Between (i) and (ii) we find that 3 entries are the same and 2 entries differ thus increasing square by 9-4 twice. But between (ii) and (iii) we find that
increase in square value would be 4-1 twice. Obviously the latter is less.
