Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
So, she buys 16 bags, each of them weights

pounds.
to find how many pounds of soil she bought, we have to multiply:
16*

=//16 is equal to 8*2, so we can simpify:
2*

which is 2*5=10
so in the end she bought 10 pounds of soil!
Answer:8
Step-by-step explanation:
First, substitute 7 into the equation for b:
1/3(2x7+10)
Now, simplify using the order of operations:
1/3(14+10)
Then:
1/3 (24)
And you arrive at your answer:
8
The answer would be (0,2) because as shown in the graph ab crosses the y-axis at (0,2)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given are 3 data sets with values as:
(i) 8 9 10 11 12 ... Mean =10
(ii) 7 9 10 11 13 ... Mean =10
(iii) 7 8 10 12 13 ... Mean =10
We see that data set shows mean deviations as
(i) -2 -1 0 1 2
(ii) -3 -1 0 1 3
(iii) -3 -2 0 2 3
Since variance is the square of std deviation, we find that std deviation is larger when variance is larger.
Variance is the sum of squares of (x-mean). Whenever x-mean increases variance increases and also std deviation.
Hence we find that without calculations also (i) has least std dev followed by (ii) and then (iii)
(i) (ii) (iii) is the order.
b) Between (i) and (ii) we find that 3 entries are the same and 2 entries differ thus increasing square by 9-4 twice. But between (ii) and (iii) we find that
increase in square value would be 4-1 twice. Obviously the latter is less.
