Answer:

The number of times the variability in the heights of the sixth graders is the variability in the heights of the seventh graders is approximately 1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the mean absolute deviation (MAD) of the sixth graders = 1.2 and that of the seventh graders = 1.7

The variability in the heights of the sixth graders = 1.2

The variability in the heights of the seventh graders = 1.7

To calculate how many times the variability in the heights of the sixth graders is the variability in the heights of the seventh graders, we will divide the variability of the seventh graders by the variability of the sixth graders

That is, 1.7/ 1.2 = 1.4167 ≅ 1.4

Hence, the number of times the variability in the heights of the sixth graders is the variability in the heights of the seventh graders is approximately 1.4

(I need help as soon as i can! :-) Can you find the third angle measure in a triangle, if you know the other 2 angel measure?
belka [17]

Answer: Yes you can using the sum of internal angles in a triangle they add up to 180, so if you add the two given angle measures and them substract the result from 180 you will have the measure of the third angle. Hope this helps. :)

Find the velocity and position vectors of a particle that has the given acceleration and the given initial velocity and position
stira [4]

Answer:

v(t) = (2t+1) \mathbb{i} +3t^2 \mathbb{j} +4t^3 \mathbb{k}

r(t) = (t^2+t) \mathbb{i} +(t^3+2) \mathbb{j} +(t^4 - 3) \mathbb{k}

Step-by-step explanation:

The velocity vector is the integral of the acceleration vector i.e.

v(t) = \int a(t) dt

v(t) = \int (2 \mathbb{i}+6t \mathbb{j} 12t^2 \mathbb{k}) dt

v(t) = 2t \mathbb{i}+3t^2 \mathbb{j} 4t^3 \mathbb{k} + C_1

When t=0, v(0) = \mathbb{i}. Inserting these values in v(t),

C_1= \mathbb{i}

v(t) = 2t \mathbb{i}+3t^2 \mathbb{j} 4t^3 \mathbb{k} + \mathbb{i}

v(t) = (2t+1) \mathbb{i}+3t^2 \mathbb{j} 4t^3 \mathbb{k}

The position vector is the integral of the velocity vector i.e.

r(t) = \int v(t) dt

r(t) = \int ((2t+1) \mathbb{i}+3t^2 \mathbb{j} 4t^3 \mathbb{k}) dt

r(t) = (t^2+t) \mathbb{i}+t^3 \mathbb{j} t^4 \mathbb{k} + C_2

When t=0, r(t) =2\mathbb{j}-3\mathbb{k}. Inserting these values in r(t),

C_2=2\mathbb{j}-3\mathbb{k}

r(t)= (t^2+t) \mathbb{i}+t^3 \mathbb{j}+ t^4 \mathbb{k} + 2\mathbb{j}-3\mathbb{k}

r(t) = (t^2+t) \mathbb{i}+(t^3+2) \mathbb{j}+ (t^4-3) \mathbb{k}

For 300 trading​ days, the daily closing price of a stock​ (in $) is well modeled by a Normal model with mean ​$196.99 and stand
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

a) 2.5% b) 84% c) 95% d) D. The more unusual day is if the stock closed below $185 because it has the largest absolute z-score.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a) b) and c) we will use the empirical rule, so, we can observe the image shown below

a) 211.23 is exactly two standard deviation above the mean, so, the probability that on a randomly selected day in this period the stock price closed above 211.23 is 2.35% + 0.15% = 2.5%  

b) 204.11 represents exactly one standard deviation above the mean, so, the probability of being below 204.11 is 50% + 34% = 84%

c) The probability of getting a value between 182.75 and 211.23 is 95%, this because 182.75 is exactly two standard deviations below the mean and 211.23 is exactly two standard deviations above the mean.

d) The z-score related to 208 is z_{1} = (208-196.99)/7.12 = 1.5 and the z-score related to 185 is  z_{2} = (185-196.99)/7.12 = -1.7, therefore, the more unusual day is if the stock closed below $185 because it has the largest absolute z-score.

In a certain city the cost for a taxi ride for 20 miles is $13. For 30 miles the cost is $18. Assuming the number of miles is x
anygoal [31]
We need to write the linear equation that is satisfied by (20,13) and (30,18).
                             $18 - $13         $5
The slope is m = --------------- = -------- = $0.50/mile
                              30 - 20            10

We need to find the y-intercept of this function.  To do that, start with the slope-intercept form   y = mx + b

and subst. the y and x values from one of the two given points.  Suppose we choose (20,$13):

$13 = ($0.50/mile)(20 miles) + b

Then $13 = $10 + b, and b = $3.

There's an up-front charge of $3 just to step into the taxi.

The equation in question is y = ($0.50/mile)x + $3.00           (answer)
