Answer: 10.2"

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The dimension of the rectangular box is 2"\times 6"\times8"

If the Straw  fits exactly into the box diagonally

So, the length of the longest diagonal of the rectangular box is equal to the length of the straw i.e.

\Rightarrow l=\sqrt{2^2+6^2+8^2}\\\\\Rightarrow l=\sqrt{4+36+64}\\\\\Rightarrow l=\sqrt{104}\\\Rightarrow l=10.19\approx 10.2"

How do you find the median and standard deviation for 3,3,3,3,4,4,4,4,4,5,5,5,5,5,5,5,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,7,7,7,7,7,7,8,8,8,8,8,
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Median is 6

standard deviation is 2.39

Step-by-step explanation:

the median is the mid number in the data set

The median formula is {(n + 1) ÷ 2}th, where “n” is the number of items in the set and “th” just means the (n)th number.

There are 51 data points in this set (n = 51)

so 51 / 2 = 25.5, the. number in the 25th slot is our median

3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6,<u> 6</u>, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 9, 9, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 11, 11, 11, 11, 11

the standard deviation is a measure of how dispersed the data is in relation to the mean. Low standard deviation means data are clustered around the mean, and high standard deviation indicates data are more spread out.

If the sum of three consecutive numbers is 36. Find the numbers.
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

11, 12, 13

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the first number

(x + 1) is the second number

(x + 2) is the third number

x + x+1 + x+2 = 36

3x + 3 = 36

3x = 36 - 3

3x = 33

x = 11  ← the first number

the second number  = x + 1 = 11 + 1 = 12

the third number = x + 2 = 11 + 2 = 13

vazorg [7]

Answer:

n = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Continuing the sequence using

x_{n} + x_{n+1}

x₄ = x₂ + x₃ =1 + 2 = 3

x₅ = x₃ + x₄ = 2 + 3 = 5

x₆ = x₄ + x₅ = 3 + 5 = 8

x₇ = x₅ + x₆ = 5 + 8 = 13

x₈ = x₆ + x₇ = 8 + 13 = 21

x₉ = x₇ + x₈ = 13 + 21 = 34

x₁₀ = x₈ + x₉ = 21 + 34 = 55 ← with n = 8

Solve for x. 3x ^2 -4 = 8
LenKa [72]

Answer:

x = ±2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x ^2 -4 = 8

Add 4 to each side

3x ^2 -4+4 = 8+4

3x^2 =12

Divide each side by 3

3x^2 =12

3x^2/3 = 12/3

x^2 = 4

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(4)

x = ±2
