Let's figure this out as though we have no idea what the answer would be.
Step One
Find the new five numbers.
3*3, 8*3, 12*3, 17*3, 25*3
9 , 24 , 36, 51, 75
Step 2
Find the average
(9 + 24 + 36 + 51 + 75)/5 = 195/5 = 39
Step 3
Subtract the individual numbers from the average
(39 - 9) = 30
(39 -24) = 15
(39 - 36) = 3
(39 - 51) = - 12
(39 - 75) = -36
Step 4
Square the results from Step 3
30^2 = 900
15^2 = 225
3^2 = 9
(-12)^2 = 144
(-36)^2 = 1296
Step 5
Take the average of the results from step 4
(900 + 225 + 9 + 144 + 1296)/5
2574 / 5 = 514.8
Step 6
Take the square root of the result from step 5
deviation = sqrt(514.8)
deviation = 22.689
Step seven
Compare the two standard deviations.
s2/s1 = 22.689 / 7.563 = 3
Conclusion
If you are given 1 set of numbers to find a population standard deviation and you multiply each member by a, then the result will be a * the standard population deviation of the first set of numbers.
Note
Your calculator will do this as well, but you have to know how to enter the data into your calculator. That requires that you follow the directions carefully.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller number be 
. Since they are consecutive even numbers, the larger number can be represented by 
.
Therefore, we have the following equation:
Thus, the larger number is 
Part A
t 0 1 2 3
H(t) 12 44 44 42
g(t) 10 25 40 56
Set H(t) = g(t) yields 16t^2 -32t -2 which shows its zeroes or points of intersections are at 0.6 and 2.1 seconds
Part B
H(t) = g(t) intersect at (x,y) points (0.6 secs, 9.1 feet) and (2.1 secs, 42.1 feet)
H(t) is a parabola that opens downward which shows the cannonball arches upwards then falls downward.
g(t) is a straight linear line which slopes positive upwards and intersects G(t) in two places.
8 basketballs * 9 inches = 72 (units) of space taken up
6 large taxis x 7 people per large taxi = 42 people. In total there are 75 people. 75-42=32 people left. If you want to divide these people over small taxis, you divide 32 by 4, 32/4=8, so you need 8 small taxis
