Answer:

2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the mean first

$Mean = \frac{Sum}{No.\ of\ values}\\ = \frac{2+4+7+2+3+7+9+3+1+7}{10}\\ = \frac{45}{10}\\ = 4.5$

Now we have to find deviations.

Note that the deviations are calculated by subtracting the mean from the value. The distance is always positive so the deviations will be positive

Value Deviation

2 2-4.5 = |-2.5| = 2.5

4 4-4.5 = |-0.5| = 0.5

7 7-4.5 = 2.5

2 2-4.5 = |-2.5| = 2.5

3 3-4.5 = |-1.5| = 1.5

7 7-4.5 = 2.5

9 9-4.5 = 4.5

3 3-4.5 = |-1.5| = 1.5

1 1-4.5 = |-3.5| = 3.5

7 7-4.5 = 2.5

The last step is to find the mean of deviations.

$Mean\ of\ deviations = \frac{(2.5+0.5+2.5+2.5+1.5+2.5+4.5+1.5+3.5+2.5}{10}\\ = \frac{24}{10} \\=2.4$

The mean absolute deviation of given data set is 2.4 ..

$x^2+7=2x\\\\\implies x^2 -2x +7 =0\\\\\text{Apply quadratic formula,}~ x =\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\\text{in this case,}~ a = 1, b= -2 ~\text{and}~ c = 7\\\\\\x= \dfrac{-(-2) \pm \sqrt{(-2)^2 -4\cdot 1 \cdot 7}}{2\cdot 1}\\\\\\\implies x =\dfrac{2 \pm \sqrt{-24}}{2}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{2 \pm i\sqrt{24}}2\\\\\implies x =\dfrac{2 \pm i2\sqrt{6}}2\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{2\left(1 \pm i \sqrt 6\right)}2\\\\\implies x = 1 \pm i\sqrt 6\\\\$

$\text{Hence,}~ x = 1-i\sqrt 6 ~\text{or}~ x = 1+i\sqrt 6$

True or false? If you took an if-then statement and inserted a "not" into each clause, the new statement would also be true.

Thomas deposited $1500 into a savings account. He is earning 6% Interest compounded quarterly. How much money will Thomas have i

gavmur [86]

Answer:

Rs. 1186 is the required answer.

Step by step answer:

Given:

Principle (P)=$1500

Rate of Interest (R)= 6%

Time period (T)=10 years

Compound Interest (CI)=P((1+6/100)^T-1)

=1500((1+6/100)^10-1)

= Rs. 1186 (approximately)

What is 24% of 80?

juin [17]

In math, IS represents = OF represents multiply

1. So for the first problem is saying 24% * 80 24% is the same as .24 so .24*80=19.2

2. For this one the problem is saying 15=30%*x So for this we need to find x. So we divide both sides by .3 and get x = 50

3. You do the same thing as in 2. Im not gonna do all ur homework so you can do this one.

Hope that helps :)<span />
