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

A triangle has vertices X(2, 1), Y(5, 4), and Z(5, 1). What is the area of the triangle?
pochemuha

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

They gave you an easy triangle. You can tell by the coordinates that X and Z are horizontally aligned, and Y and Z are vertically aligned, so Z is a right angle.

Area = 0.5(XZ)(YZ) = 0.5(3)(3) = 4.5 square units.

If 141 people attend a concert and tickets for adults cost $3.5 while tickets for children cost $2.5 and total receipts for the
Arturiano [62]

Answer: There are 69 adults and 72 children went to the concert.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of adults, and y be the number of children.

x + y = 141

3.5x + 2.5y = 421.5

x + y =141

x = 141 - y

3.5(141 - y) + 2.5y = 421.5

493.5 - 3.5y + 2.5y = 421.5

493.5 - y = 421.5

-y = -72

y = 72

x + y = 141

x + 72 = 141

x = 69

slega [8]

Answer:

60 points in 5 games

Step-by-step explanation:

plug the numbers of points scored into the top boxes,  so the boxes should look like  ( [8]+[11]+[12]+[16]+[n] ) then plug in the number of games he played in the bottom box     [5]                   so 8+11+12+16+n all divided by 5 has to = 12

5x12 = 60  

n= 60-8-11-12-16     n= 13
