4 because 4 x 4 =16 and 4+4=8
Understand that a decimal is any number written in the base-10 system. In common usage, the term "decimal" refers to a number that uses a decimal point to separate the ones place from tenths, hundredths, etc. Represent decimals using area models. State the fraction (tenths or hundredths) that is equivalent to a given decimal. Compare the values of decimals (tenths or hundredths) using area models and/or a number line. For example, compare the value of 0.8 and 0.21.Find a decimal that has a value between two other decimals. For example, find a decimal with a value between 0.3 and 0.4.
Answer:
A.) The manager calculated mean and not standard deviation
B.) Standard deviation should be calculated with the use of formula.
Step-by-step explanation:
A.) The assumption that his customers do spend more than the national average is wrong because the standard deviation is not calculated and mean cannot be used as a substitute for standard deviation.
B.) Standard deviation tells us how value obtain from group measurement deviates from the average value or expected value of each item of observations.
When standard deviation is low, this show that the value is very close to the expected value or the average value.
If the national average value = $150 and average customer spends $160.
Deviation = 160 - 150 = 10
This is lower than $30
Or better still, the manager should make use of standard deviation formula. Which is the square root of variance.
