<span>The variance method is as follows.

-Sum the squares of the values in data set, and then divide by the number of values in data set
- From that, subtract the square of the mean (add all values and divide by number of values in the data set)

Our variance is

<span>\displaystyle\sigma^2 = \frac{2^2 + 5^2 + m^2}{3} - \left(\frac{2 + 5 + m}{3}\right)^2

Since variance has to be 14, we set \sigma^2  = 14 and solve for m

14= \frac{4 + 25 + m^2}{3} - \left(\frac{7 + m}{3}\right)^2\ \Rightarrow \\ \\&#10;14 = \frac{29}{3} + \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{1}{9}(7+m)^2 \\ \\&#10;14 = \frac{29}{3}+ \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{1}{9}(49 + 14m + m^2) \\ \\&#10;14 = \frac{29}{3}+ \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{49}{9}- \frac{14}{9}m- \frac{1}{9}m^2 \\ \\&#10;0 = \frac{-88}{9}  -\frac{14}{9}m + \frac{2}{9}m^2&#10;

quadratic formula


m = \displaystyle\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a} \\&#10;m = \frac{-(-\frac{14}{9}) \pm \sqrt{\left(-\frac{14}{9}\right)^2 - 4(2/9)(-88/9)} }{2(2/9)} \\&#10;m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{196}{81} + \frac{704}{81} } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\&#10;m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{900}{81}  } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\&#10;m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{100}{9}  } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\&#10;m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \frac{10}{3}  }{\frac{4}{9} } \\&#10;m = 11, -4

-4 doesnt' work as it is not a positive integer

m = 11

confirm or disprove ernest's work by selecting two different points and applying the slope formula. be sure to identify the poin
yan [13]

Answer:

Part a) Ernest's calculation was correct

Part b) Ernest's calculation was correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

Ernest calculated the slope of the graph during the uphill climb to be 10. His work is shown below.

Points: (60.900). (15, 450)

Slope : 900-450/60-15=450/45=10

Part a) Determine whether his calculation was correct or incorrect, and then explain why.

Part b) Confirm or disprove Ernest's work by selecting two different points and applying the slope formula. be sure to identify the points you chose

Part a)

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

we have the points

A(60,900),B(15,450)

Remember that

m_A_B=m_B_A

step 1

Find m_A_B

substitute in the formula

m_A_B=\frac{450-900}{15-60}\\\\m_A_B=\frac{-450}{-45}=10

step 2

Find m_B_A

substitute in the formula

m_B_A=\frac{900-450}{60-15}\\\\m_B_A=\frac{450}{45}=10

therefore

Ernest's calculation was correct, because m_A_B=m_B_A

Part b) selecting two different points

we take the points

(0,300) and (50,800) -----> see the attached figure

substitute in the formula of slope

m=\frac{800-300}{50-0}

m=\frac{500}{50}

m=10

therefore

Ernest's calculation was correct

How does f(x) = 3* change over the interval x = 4 to x = 57
Vilka [71]

f(x) increase by a factor of 3

Explanation:

        Given that f(x)= 3* and the interval is x=4 to x=57

        Now we put the value for x is 4 to 57 then value of f(x) increase with the multiply of 3.

        Because the x is multiplied with 3 i.e., 3*

        So f(x) increase by a factor of 3.

        If we put x=4, then f(x)= 12     (∵ 3×4=12)

        If we put x=5, the f(x)= 15       (∵ 3×5=15)

        If we put x=6,the f(x)= 18             (∵ 3×6=18)

similarly., values of x= 7,8,9,...155.

        Then,

        If we put x=56, the f(x)=168

        This process will continue until f(x)=171 for x=57.

HELP PLEASE PLEASE!!!!!!!!
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

The measure of the third angle is equal to 34°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The measure of angle 1 is 50°.

The measure of angle 2 is 96°

We need to find the measure of the third angle. We know that the sum of angles of a triangle is equal to 180°. So,

x+50+96=180

x+146=180

x = 180-146

x = 34°

So, the measure of the third angle is equal to 34°.
