A sample of 13 sheets of cardstock is randomly selected and the following thicknesses are measured in millimeters. Give a point

estimate for the population standard deviation. Round your answer to three decimal places. 1.96,1.81,1.97,1.83,1.87,1.84,1.85,1.94,1.96,1.81,1.86,1.95,1.89

<h3>Answer:  0.061</h3>

===============================================

Explanation:

Add up the values to get

1.96+1.81+1.97+1.83+1.87+1.84+1.85+1.94+1.96+1.81+1.86+1.95+1.89= 24.54

Then divide over 13 (the number of values) to get 24.54/13 = 1.8876923 which is approximate.

So the mean is approximately 1.8876923

---------------------

Now make a spreadsheet as shown below

We have the first column as the x values, which are the original numbers your teacher provided. The second column is of the form (x-M)^2, where M is the mean we computed earlier. We subtract off the mean and square the result.

After we compute that column of (x-M)^2 values, we add them up to get what is shown in the highlighted yellow cell at the bottom of the column.

That sum is approximately 0.04403076924

Next, we divide that over n-1 = 13-1 = 12

0.04403076924 /12 = 0.00366923077

That is the sample variance. Apply the square root to this to get the sample standard deviation. This is the point estimate of the population standard deviation. As the name implies, it works for samples that estimate population parameters.

sqrt(0.00366923077) = 0.06057417576822

This rounds to 0.061 which is the final answer.

Simplify 4n5 + 3.5n5 + (-2.1n5).<br><br> 4.4 n5<br> 5.4 n5<br> 20 n5<br> 6.4 n5
ella [17]

Answer:

4 {n}^{5}  + 3.5 {n}^{5}  + ( - 2.1 {n}^{5} )

first create a bracket:

= ( {4n}^{5}  + 3.5 {n}^{5} ) + ( - 2.1 {n}^{5} )

then solve the first bracket:

=  {7.5 {n}^{5} } + ( - 2.1 {n}^{5} )

then open the remaining bracket:

=  {7.5n}^{5}  -  {2.1n}^{5}

carryout the subtraction operation:

= (7.5 - 2.1) {n}^{5}  \\ { \boxed{ =  {5.4n}^{5} }}

Xelga [282]
The 6 is in the thousandth place so you round with that being the last number
since we have a 55 after the 6, we round up
so we get

Reggie needs 24 feet of rope to make a tire swing. He has 10 yards of rope. Is this enough for him to make his swing? Explain.
Luden [163]

Answer:

8 yards < 10 yards

He has enough.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yard = 3 feet

y yards = 24 feet

\frac{1}{3} :\frac{y}{24}

y · 3 = 1 · 24

3y = 24

3y ÷ 3 = 24 ÷ 3

y = 8

24 feet = 8 yards

8 yards < 10 yards
