HELP PLEASE!!! I need help with this question!
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

\large\boxed{PS=10\sqrt5}

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔPQS, ΔRQP and ΔRPS are similar (AA). Therefore the sides are in proportion:

\dfrac{QR}{RP}=\dfrac{RP}{RS}

We have:

QR=5,\ RS=20

Substitute:

\dfrac{5}{RP}=\dfrc{RP}{20}                <em>cross multiply</em>

RP^2=(5)(20)\\\\RP^2=100\to RP=\sqrt{100}\\\\RP=10

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

PS^2=PR^2+RS^2

Substitute:

PS^2=10^2+20^2\\\\PS^2=100+400\\\\PS^2=500\to PS=\sqrt{500}\\\\PS=\sqrt{100\cdot5}\\\\PS=\sqrt{100}\cdot\sqrt5\\\\PS=10\sqrt5

Suppose that prices of recently sold homes in one neighborhood have a mean of $215,000 with a standard deviation of $8900. Using
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The minimum percentage of recently sold homes with prices between $197,200 and $232,800 is 75%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chebyshev Theorem

The Chebyshev Theorem can also be applied to non-normal distribution. It states that:

At least 75% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

At least 89% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

An in general terms, the percentage of measures within k standard deviations of the mean is given by 100(1 - \frac{1}{k^{2}}).

In this question:

Mean of $215,000, standard deviation of $8900.

What is the minimum percentage of recently sold homes with prices between $197,200 and $232,800?

215000 - 2*8900 = 197200

215000 + 2*8900 = 232800

Within 2 standard deviations of the mean, so:

The minimum percentage of recently sold homes with prices between $197,200 and $232,800 is 75%.
