Answer:

(a) \bar x= 1.583 -- Population Mean

(b) s = 1.032 --- Population standard deviation

(c) See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cigarette tax for 20 regions

Solving (a): The population mean

This is calculated as:

\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}

\sum x = 1.36 + 1.70 + 2.50 + 0.45 + 1.18 + 0.64 + 3.46 + 0.57 + 2.00 + 0.80 + 1.60 +0.98 + 0.36 + 2.24 + 4.35 + 0.62 + 2.70 + 1.78 + 1.53 + 0.84

\sum x = 31.66

n = 20

So, we have:

\bar x= \frac{31.66}{20}

\bar x= 1.583

Solving (b): The population standard deviation

This is calculated as:

s = \sqrt{\frac{\sum( x - \bar x)^2}{n}

\sum (x -\bar x)^2 = (1.36 - 1.583)^2 + (1.70 - 1.583)^2+ (2.50 - 1.583)^2+ (0.45 - 1.583)^2+ (1.18 - 1.583)^2+ (0.64 - 1.583)^2+ (3.46 - 1.583)^2+ (0.57 - 1.583)^2+ (2.00 - 1.583)^2+ (0.80 - 1.583)^2+ (1.60 - 1.583)^2+(0.98 - 1.583)^2+ (0.36 - 1.583)^2+ (2.24 - 1.583)^2+ (4.35 - 1.583)^2+ (0.62 - 1.583)^2+ (2.70 - 1.583)^2+ (1.78 - 1.583)^2+ (1.53 - 1.583)^2+ (0.84- 1.583)^2

\sum (x -\bar x)^2 = 21.29222

So:

s = \sqrt{\frac{21.2922}{20}

s = \sqrt{1.06461}

s = 1.032

Solving (c):

Population mean tells the average amount while the standard deviation represents the spread from the calculated mean

Option (4) is correct

Find the measure of angle x in the figure below: A triangle is shown. At the top vertex of the triangle is a horizontal line ali
tester [92]
Y = 180 - 52 - 59 = 69 degrees . . . . . . . . (angles on a straight line are supplementary, i.e. add up to 180 degrees)

x = 180 - 69 - 63 = 48 degrees . . . . . . . . (sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees)

Therefore, m/_x = 48 degrees.

Halph plz m8<br>Which bar diagram represents the equation 5x + 7.5 = 15?
nordsb [41]

Answer:

Third bar graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 5x + 7.5 = 15.

To find : Which bar diagram represents the equation.

Solution : We have given   5x + 7.5 = 15

In the equation we can see sum of 5x and 7.5 is 15 .

By the bar graph combination box of 5x and box of 7.5 is equal to the box of 15.

Then Third bar graph represent the equation  .

Two pink boxes of 5x and 7.5 and one blue box of 15.

Therefore, Third bar graph.

what percent of 60 is 12
percent formula : is/of = %/100
percent = x
is = 12
of = 60
now sub
12/60 = x/100
cross multiply
60x = 12 * 100
60x = 1200
x = 1200/60
x = 20%
