Answer:

table C

Step-by-step explanation:

The rates of change can be computed using the slope formula.

m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

The points used and the resulting "rate of change" are shown in the attachment.

Table C shows a rate of change (1/3) that is less than that of the graph (1/2).

I like to use a spreadsheet for repetitive calculations, especially ones involving negative numbers. This helps prevent errors (and tedium). The formula is entered only once.

Brian recorded the number of commercials played during two types of television shows: an educational documentary and a primetime

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

$m(x)_A = 5.2$ --- Mean absolute deviation of educational documentary

$m(x)_B = 4.7$ --- Mean absolute deviation of prime time drama

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$n = 10$

See attachment for table

Required

Determine the mean absolute deviation of each

Mean absolute deviation m(x) is calculated as:

$m(x) = \frac{1}{n}\sum |x - \mu|$

For Educational Documentary

First, calculate the mean

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

So:

$\mu_A = \frac{26 + 28 + 30 + 18+27 + 18 + 20 +31+17+17}{10}$

$\mu_A = \frac{232}{10}$

$\mu_A = 23.2$

The mean absolute deviation is then calculated as:

$m(x)_A = \frac{1}{n}\sum |x - \mu_A|$

$m(x)_A = \frac{1}{10}(|26 -23.2| +|28 -23.2| +|30 -23.2| +|18 -23.2| +|27 -23.2| +|18 -23.2| +|20 -23.2| +|31 -23.2| +|17 -23.2| +|17 -23.2|)$

$m(x)_A = \frac{1}{10}(|2.8| +|4.8| +|6.8| +|-5.2| +|3.8| +|-5.2| +|-3.2| +|7.8| +|-6.2| +|-6.2|)$

$m(x)_A = \frac{1}{10}(2.8 +4.8 +6.8 +5.2 +3.8 +5.2 +3.2 +7.8 +6.2 +6.2)$

$m(x)_A = \frac{1}{10}*52$

$m(x)_A = 5.2$

For Prime time Drama

First, calculate the mean

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

So:

$\mu_B = \frac{39+39+35+29+40+27+41+29+32+30}{10}$

$\mu_B = \frac{341}{10}$

$\mu_B = 34.1$

The mean absolute deviation is then calculated as:

$m(x)_B = \frac{1}{n}\sum |x - \mu_B|$

$m(x)_B = \frac{1}{10}(|39-34.1|+|39-34.1|+|35-34.1|+|29-34.1|+|40-34.1|+|27-34.1|+|41-34.1|+|29-34.1|+|32-34.1|+|30-34.1|)$

$m(x)_B = \frac{1}{10}(|4.9|+|4.9|+|0.9|+|-5.1|+|5.9|+|-7.1|+|6.9|+|-5.1|+|-2.1|+|-4.1|)$

$m(x)_B = \frac{1}{10}(4.9+4.9+0.9+5.1+5.9+7.1+6.9+5.1+2.1+4.1)$

$m(x)_B = \frac{1}{10}*47$

$m(x)_B = 4.7$

What is the solution of the equation 9^2x=6? Round your answer to the nearest ten-thousandth.

sammy [17]

Answer:

0.4077

Step-by-step explanation:

It's important to use parenthesis to avoid confusion.

9^(2x) = 6

Use exponent properties:

(9^2)^x = 6

81^x = 6

Take log of both sides

ln(81^x) = ln(6)

Use log properties:

x ln(81) = ln(6)

Solve for x:

x = ln(6) / ln(81)

x ≈ 0.4077
