Answer:

a) Range = 7.7

b) Standard deviation = 2.78

Step-by-step explanation:

Find (a) the range and (b) the standard deviation of the data set 8.2, 10.1, 2.6, 4.8, 2.4,5.6, 7.0,3.3 Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary

We are rearrange the given data:

2.4, 2.6, 3.3, 4.8, 5.6, 7.0, 8.2, 10.1

a) Range

This is calculated as: Highest value - Lowest value

Highest value = 10.1

Lowest value = 2.4

Range = 10.1 - 2.4

= 7.7

b) Standard deviation

Step 1

We find the mean

= Sum of values/ Number of value

= 2.4 + 2.6+ 3.3+ 4.8+ 5.6+7.0+8.2+10.1/8

= 44/8

= 5.5

The formula for standard deviation

= √(x - mean)²/n - 1

= √((2.4 - 5.5)² +( 2.6 - 5.5)²+ (3.3 - 5.5)²+ (4.8-5.5)²+ (5.6 - 5.5)²+(7.0-5.5)² +(8.2 - 5.5)² +(10.1-5.5)2)/8 - 1

= √54.06/7

= √7.722857143

= 2.779002904

approximately = 2.78

ipn [44]

Answer:

3x

Step-by-step explanation:

50 mi/hr × (1 hr / 60 min) × (200 gal / 500 mi) = ⅓ gal/min

(⅓ gal/min) × (t min) = x gal

t = 3x

Construct a sample (with at least two different values in the set) of 3 measurements whose variance is negative. If this is not
Bond [772]

This is not possible. Why not? Because the smallest the variance can get is 0.

Recall that 's' represents the standard deviation, so s^2 is the variance. It basically measures how spread out the values are. The higher the variance, the more spread out the data. You can think of it as "average distance from the mean". If the variance is 0, then all of the values are at the same point. So you could have a list like {2,2,2,2,2} which has variance 0. We cannot get any smaller variance than that. If your teacher insists all the values in the list are different, then the variance will be greater than 0.

Which two theorems would justify that m∠4 = m∠6, given that m∠5 = m∠6 in the diagram below?
My name is Ann [436]

Answer: D) vertical angles theorem, alternate interior angles theorem

Angle 5 = Angle 6 by the alternate interior angles theorem

Angle 5 = angle 4 by the vertical angles theorem

By the transitive property, we can then say angle 4 = angle 6. These angles are also corresponding angles.

We won't use the angle addition theorem or the right angles theorem.
