We have been given that the standard deviation of a group of 20 scores is 15 and we are asked to find variance.
Since we know variance is square of standard deviation. In order to find out the variance of the given data we have to take the square of 15.
Therefore, our variance is 225.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the slope of the line is -1.
We also know that the line passes through (-9, 3) and (-10, r).
We want to find the value of r.
First, let's figure out the equation of our line. We can use the point-slope form:
Where m is the slope and (x₁, y₁) is a point.
So, let's substitute -1 for m. Since we know the point (-9, 3), let's use this for (x₁, y₁).
Substitute:
Simplify:
Distribute:
Add 3 to both sides. So, our equation is:
It passes through (-10, r) and we want to find the value of r. So, let's substitute -10 for x and r for y, since -10 is our x and r is our y. So:
Evaluate for r. Distribute:
Subtract:
So, the value of r is 4.
And we're done!
