Answer:

Hence it will take 35hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time it took to dig hole be x

Ley the number of holes be n

Using the relationship x = kn (direct relationship)

if it takes 3 men 5 hours to dig 12 holes, hence;

when x = 5, n = 12

k = x/n

k = 5/12

To get how many hours it take for 3 men to dig 84 holes, then;

when n = 84, x = ?

x = 5/12 * 84

x = 5 * 7

x = 35hours

Hence it will take 35hours

Comparing Standard Deviations
inessss [21]

Explanation:

There may be a couple of reasons for this:

1. Each team represents a sample of the players in the league. The averages of (random) samples can be expected to have a standard deviation that is smaller than the population standard deviation by a factor related to sample size.

2. A team average will result from the players who are played the most. Each team can be expected to field players more often whose averages are among the highest. The standard deviation of a set of the top tier of players will necessarily be smaller than the standard deviation of the set of all players.
