Answer:

Mean = 68.9

s^2 =18.1 --- Variance

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\begin{array}{cccccc}{Class} & {51-58} & {59-66} & {67-74} & {75-82} & {83-90} \ \\ {Frequency} & {6} & {3} & {11} & {13} & {4} \ \end{array}

Solving (a): Calculate the mean.

The given data is a grouped data. So, first we calculate the class midpoint (x)

For 51 - 58.

x = \frac{1}{2}(51+58) = \frac{1}{2}(109) = 54.5

For 59 - 66

x = \frac{1}{2}(59+66) = \frac{1}{2}(125) = 62.5

For 67 - 74

x = \frac{1}{2}(67+74) = \frac{1}{2}(141) = 70.5

For 75 - 82

x = \frac{1}{2}(75+82) = \frac{1}{2}(157) = 78.5

For 83 - 90

x = \frac{1}{2}(83+90) = \frac{1}{2}(173) = 86.5

So, the table becomes:

\begin{array}{cccccc}{x} & {54.5} & {62.5} & {70.5} & {78.5} & {86.5} \ \\ {Frequency} & {6} & {3} & {11} & {13} & {4} \ \end{array}

The mean is then calculated as:

Mean = \frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}

Mean = \frac{54.5*4+62.5*3+70.5*11+78.5*13+86.5*4}{6+3+11+13+4}

Mean = \frac{2547.5}{37}

Mean = 68.9 -- approximated

Solving (b): The sample variance:

This is calculated as:

s^2 =\frac{\sum (x - \overline x)^2}{\sum f - 1}

So, we have:

s^2 =\frac{(54.5-68.9)^2+(62.5-68.9)^2+(70.5-68.9)^2+(78.5-68.9)^2+(86.5-68.9)^2}{37 - 1}

s^2 =\frac{652.8}{36}

s^2 =18.1 -- approximated

Klio2033 [76]

Using it's concept, it is found that there is a 0.125 = 12.5% experimental probability that a randomly selected preschooler would choose to read books today.

<h3>What is a probability?</h3>

A probability is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>.

For an experimental probability, these numbers of outcomes are taken from previous trials.

In this problem, in the previous trial, one out of eight students read a book, hence:

p = 1/8 = 0.125 = 12.5%.

There is a 0.125 = 12.5% experimental probability that a randomly selected preschooler would choose to read books today.

Both Andrew and Karleigh recorded the distance they ran in x minutes on treadmills. Andrew A 2-column table with 2 rows. Column
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

ex:Speed (S) is the ratio of the distance (D) covered to the time (t) taken.

That is, S = D/t

Suppose Andrew ran a distance D1 in 1 hour (3600 seconds) at a Speed, say S1, we have

S1 = D1/t

We can then say he ran a distance

D1 = t × S1

= 3600S1

Similarly, let's say Karleigh ran a distance

D2 = t × S2

= 3600S2

Let us compare these two, you will notice that the bigger number between S1 and S2 is going to determine the bigger number between D1 and D2.

Let's choose random numbers for S1 and S2 for clarity, say S1 = 5, S2 = 10

D1 = 3600 × 5

= 18000

D2 = 3600 × 10

= 36000

This makes D2 bigger than D1. this is an example i found on the internet.

Step-by-

hope this helps, good luck

Two gears are connected and are rotating simultaneously. The smaller gear has a radius of 4 inches, and the larger gear has a ra
pychu [463]
Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown below.

When the smaller gear rotates through a revolution, it sweeps an arc length of
2π(4) = 8π inches.

Part 1
The same arc length is swept by the larger gear. The central angle of the larger gear, x, is
7x = 8π
x = (8π)/7 radians = (8π)/7 * (180/π) = 205.7°

Answer: 205.7° (nearest tenth)

Part 2
When the larger gear makes one rotation, it sweeps an arc length of 
2π(7) = 14π inches.
If the central angle for the smaller gear is y radians, then
4y = 14π
y = 3.5π radians = (3.5π)/2π revolutions = 1.75 revolutions

Answer:
The smaller gear makes 1.75 rotations
