Answer:
a. Mean = 155.1 grams
b. Standard deviation = 0.37
c. Fractional uncertainty = 0.074
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Average weight
This is same as the mean weight;
Mathematically, that would be; sum of the weights/ the number of weights
= (155.1 + 154.8 + 155.5 + 155.3 + 154.6)/5 = 775.3/5 = 155.06 which is approximately 155.1
b. Standard deviation
Mathematically; we calculate that using the formula;
√{(x-mean)^2/(N-1)}
Please check attachment for for the complete breakdown of this
c. Fractional uncertainty
= Standard deviation/number of measurements = 0.37/5 = 0.074
Well you separate it into different stacks
Given that
starting outstanding balance = $150000
rate of interest = 7.5% per year
so rate of interest for 1 month = (7.5/12)% = 0.635%
outstanding balance before 1st monthly payment = starting outstanding balance + 0.625% of interest on starting outstanding balance
= 150000 + (0.625 /100) × 150000
= 150000 + 937.5 = $150937.5
Reduction = outstanding balance after one month - first monthly payment
Reduction = $150937.5 - 1010.10 = 149927.40
so out of first payment of $1,010.10 , $937.5 goes towards interest and remaining $72.6 goes towards reduction of principal that is 150000 - $72.6 = 149927.40.
so correct option is B that is $149927.40.
