The measures of spread include the range, quartiles and the interquartile range, variance and standard deviation. Let's consider each one by one.

Interquartile Range:

Given the Data -> First Quartile = 2, Third Quartile = 5

Interquartile Range = 5 - 2 = 3

Range: 8 - 1 = 7

Variance:

We start by determining the mean,

$\:1+\:2+\:3+\:3+\:3+\:5+\:8 / 7 = 3.57$

n = number of numbers in the set

Solving for the sum of squares is a long process, so I will skip over that portion and go right into solving for the variance.

$\sum _{i=1}^n\frac{\left(x_i-\bar{x}\right)^2}{n-1},\\\\=> SS/n - 1\\\\=> 31.714/7 - 1\\=> 5.28571$

5.3

Standard Deviation

We take the square root of the variance,

$\sqrt{5.28571} = 2.29906$

2.3

If you are not familiar with variance and standard deviation, just leave it.

Neither one will ever hit the axis I think? if its x=3.5 then its horizontal but its above the x axis. Same with the second one. its vertical and will never hit the y axis. Not sure how to write that into those boxes but I think there isn't an intercept.

Find the sum of the first 18 terms of the arithmetic sequence whose nth term is an = 3n - 1.

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

495

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the sum of the first 18 terms you have to find the 18th term and the first term using the equation given.

a1=3(1)-1 a1=2

a18=3(18)-1 a18= 53

Then plug in 53 for an, 18 for n, and 2 in for a1 in the sum equation: Sn=n/2(a1+an)

Sn=18/2(2+53) Solve for sn= 495
