Answer:

-64/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, the word "quotient" means the answer to a division problem. Therefore, its a division problem, so you have to work backwards with multiplication. -8 times a number is 5/8, so the other number is going to be negative.

The number is -64/5

Answer:

$\bar x = 82$

$\sigma = 9.64$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$n = 12$

$87\ 91\ 86\ 82\ 72\ 91\ 60\ 77\ 80\ 79\ 83\ 96$

Solving (a); Point estimate of mean

To do this, we simply calculate the sample mean

$\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}$

$\bar x = \frac{87+ 91+ 86+ 82+72+91+60+77+80+79+83+96}{12}$

$\bar x = \frac{984}{12}$

$\bar x = 82$

Solving (b); Point estimate of standard deviation

To do this, we simply calculate the sample standard deviation

$\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x-\bar x)^2}{n - 1}$

$\sigma = \sqrt\frac{(87-82)^2+ (91-82)^2+ ....+ (79-82)^2+ (83-82)^2+ (96-82)^2}{12-1}$

$\sigma = \sqrt\frac{1022}{11}$

$\sigma = \sqrt{92.91}$

$\sigma = 9.64$

Note that: The sample mean and the sample standard deviation are the best point estimators for the mean and the standard deviation, respectively.

Hence, the need to solve for sample mean and sample standard deviation
