There has been much media coverage of the high cost of medicinal drugs in the United States. One concern is the large variation

from pharmacy to pharmacy. To investigate, a consumer advocacy group took a random sample of 100 pharmacies around the country and recorded the price (in dollars per 100 pills) of Prozac. Compute the range, variance, and standard deviation of the prices. Discuss what these statistics tell you.

Answer:

Range = 25.35

Variance = 29.46

Standard deviation = 5.43

The variation in price of Prozac is high

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of the data :

Maximum - Minimum.

121.2 - 95.35 = 25.35

The variance, s :

s² = Σ(X - m²) / n - 1

Mean, m = Σx / n

X = individual data point

m = mean of data

n = sample size

Using a calculator of save time and ensure accuracy :

s² = 29.45522

The standard deviation, s

s = sqrt(variance)

s = sqrt(s²)

s = sqrt(29.45522)

s = 5.42726.

The range, variance and standard deviation, all measure the degree of variation in a dataset. The values of these statistical measure obtain for the price of 1 product across different pharmaceutical stores, suggests thatvthe variation in price is high;

With a range of about 25.35 and standard deviation of 5.43

sasho [114]

Answer:

5r^2+2

Step-by-step explanation:

(4r^2 – 3r + 2) – (-r^2 – 3r) =

Distribute the minus sign

(4r^2 – 3r + 2)  +r^2 + 3r =

Combine like terms

(4r^2 + r^2 – 3r+ 3r + 2) =

Please help me with this math problem, urgent please
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

y = -3.5x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Your slope-intercept equation is always y = mx + b

Using this formula, we need to find slope first: m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

Step 1: Find slope

m = (1-8) / (4-2)

m = -7/2

Step 2: Plug in into slope-intercept form

y = -3.5x + b

Step 3: Find <em>b </em>(Plug in a coordinate given)

1 = -3.5(4) + b

1 = -14 + b

b = 15

Step 4: Combine it all together

y = -3.5x + 15

And you have your final answer.
