Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of a data set is the difference between the largest number and the smallest number in the set. First put the numbers in order from smallest to largest then take the last number minus the first number.

10,12,13,15,17,18, 21. 21-10=11

If you have a cubic polynomial of the form y = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d and lets say it passes through the points (2,28), (-1, -5),

nikklg [1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Solve using the first point

(2, 28)

$28 = a(2)^3 + b(2)^2 + c(2) + d$

$28 = 8a + 4b + 2c + d$

Step 2: Solve using the second point

(-1, -5)

$-5 = a(-1)^3 + b(-1)^2 + c(-1) + d$

$-5 = -a + b - c + d$

Step 3: Solve using the third point

(4, 220)

$220 = a(4)^3 + b(4)^2 + c(4) + d$

$220 = 64a + 16b + 4c + d$

Step 4: Solve using the fourth point

(-2, -20)

$-20 = a(-2)^3 + b(-2)^2 + c(-2) + d$

$-20 = -8a + 4b - 2c + d$

Step 5: Combine the first and fourth equations

$28 - 20 = 8a - 8a + 4b + 4b + 2c - 2c + d + d$

$8 = 8b + 2d$

$8 - 8b = 8b - 8b + 2d$

$(8 -8b)/2 = 2d/2$

$4 - 4b = d$

Step 6: Solve for c in the second equation

$-5 + 5 = -a + b - c + d + 5$

$0 + c = -a + b - c + c + d + 5$

$c = -a + b + d + 5$

Step 7: Substitute d with the stuff we got in step 5

$c = -a + b + (4 - 4b) + 5$

$c = -a + b + 4 - 4b + 5$

$c = -a - 3b + 9$

Step 8: Substitute d and c into the first equation

$28 = 8a + 4b + 2(-a - 3b + 9) + (4 - 4b)$

$28 = 8a + 4b - 2a - 6b + 18 + 4 - 4b$

$28 - 22 = 6a - 6b + 22 - 22$

$6 / 6 = (6a - 6b) / 6$

$1 + b = a - b + b$

$1 + b = a$

Step 9: Substitute a, b, and c into the third equation

$220 = 64(1 + b) + 16b + 4(-(1 + b) - 3b + 9) + (4 - 4b)$

$220 = 64 + 64b + 16b + 4(-1 - b - 3b + 9) + 4 - 4b$

$220 - 100 = 60b + 100 - 100$

$120 / 60 = 60b / 60$

$2 = b$

Step 10: Find a using b = 2

$a = b + 1$

$a = (2) + 1$

$a = 3$

Step 11: Find c using a = 3 and b = 2

$c = -a - 3b + 9$

$c = -(3) - 3(2) + 9$

$c = -3 - 6 + 9$

$c = 0$

Step 12: Find d using b = 2

$d = 4 - 4b$

$d = 4 - 4(2)$

$d = 4 - 8$

$d = -4$

Answer: $a = 3, b = 2, c = 0,d = -4$

A researcher selects two samples of equal size and computes a mean difference of 1.0 between the two sample means. If the pooled

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The Cohen's D is given by this formula:

$D = \frac{\bar X_A -\bar X_B}{s_p}$

Where $s_p$ represent the deviation pooled and we know from the problem that:

$s^2_p = 4$ represent the pooled variance

So then the pooled deviation would be:

$s_p = \sqrt{4}= 2$

And the difference of the two samples is $\bar X_a -\bar X_b = 1$ , and replacing we got:

$D = \frac{1}{2}= 0.5$

And since the value for D obtained is 0.5 we can consider this as a medium effect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Cohen’s D is a an statistical measure in order to analyze effect size for a given condition compared to other. For example can be used if we can check if one method A has a better effect than another method B in a specific situation.

Solution to the problem

The Cohen's D is given by this formula:

$D = \frac{\bar X_A -\bar X_B}{s_p}$

Where $s_p$ represent the deviation pooled and we know from the problem that:

$s^2_p = 4$ represent the pooled variance

So then the pooled deviation would be:

$s_p = \sqrt{4}= 2$

And the difference of the two samples is $\bar X_a -\bar X_b = 1$ , and replacing we got:

$D = \frac{1}{2}= 0.5$

And since the value for D obtained is 0.5 we can consider this as a medium effect.

Need help with these 2 problems will give brainliest answer and worth 30 points!!

Question 1.
Step 1. Add the total cost of purchasing the luxury items:
$TotalCost=35.95+34.65+15.30+6.99+42.96=135.85$
You will spend $135.85 purchasing the luxury items.

Step 2. Add the total cost of purchasing the name brand items:
$TotalCost=19.95+15.98+9.40+4.99+29.75=80.07$
You will spend $80.07 purchasing the name brand items.

Step 3. Subtract the total cost of purchasing the name brand items from the total cost of purchasing the luxury items:
$135.85-80.07=55.78$

Answer to the original question:
We can conclude that you will spend $55.78 more by purchasing the luxury items.

Question 2:

Part 1. To find the how many months will take to pay the card debt, we are going to use the credit card equation: $N=- \frac{1}{30}* \frac{ln(1+ \frac{b}{p}*(1+ \frac{r}{365})^{30})) }{ln(1+ \frac{r}{365}) }$
where
$N$ is the months to pay the card
$b$ is the balance
$p$ is the monthly payment
$r$ is the interest rate in decimal form

We know from our problem that the balance of the credit card is $1,367.90 and the monthly payment is $400.00, so $b=1367.90$ and $p=400$ . To find convert the interest rate to decimal form, we are going to divide the rate by 100%
$r= \frac{9.5}{100}=0.095$ .
Now that we have all we need, lets replace the values in our credit card equation:
$N=- \frac{1}{30}* \frac{ln(1+ \frac{b}{p}*(1+ \frac{r}{365})^{30})) }{ln(1+ \frac{r}{365}) }$
$N=- \frac{1}{30}* \frac{ln(1+ \frac{1367.90}{400}*(1+ \frac{0.095}{365})^{30})) }{ln(1+ \frac{0.095}{365}) }$
$N=3.4799$

It will take you 3.5 months according to our calculation, but since you pay $400 each month on the due date, we can conclude that it will take you 4 months to pay off the card.

Part 2. To calculate the total amount paid including the interest, we just need to multiply the monthly payment by the number of payments.
We know from our problem that the monthly payment is $400. We also know from our previous calculations that the number of payments is 4, so lets multiply both quantities:
$400*4=1600$

We can conclude that the total amount paid including interest is $1,600
