The piece of wood is 48 times as long as the nail (12 feet = 144 inches) because 3 goes into 144 48 times.
Answer:
* The mean (a measure of central tendency) weight value is the average of the weights of all pennies in the study.
* The standard deviation (a measure of variability or dispersion) describes the lowest and highest any individual penny weight can be. Subtracting 0.02g from the mean, you get the lowest penny weight in the group.
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that a penny is a money unit. It is created/produced, just like any other commodity. As a matter of fact, almost all types of money or currency are manufactured; with different materials ranging from paper to solid metals.
A group of pennies made in a certain year are weighed. The variable of interest here is weight of a penny.
The mean weight of all selected pennies is approximately 2.5grams.
The standard deviation of this mean value is 0.02grams.
In this context,
* The mean (a measure of central tendency) weight value is the average of the weights of all pennies in the study.
* The standard deviation (a measure of variability or dispersion) describes the lowest and highest any individual penny weight can be. Subtracting 0.02g from the mean, you get the lowest penny weight in the group.
Likewise, adding 0.02g to the mean, you get the highest penny weight in the group.
Hence, the weight of each penny in this study, falls within
[2.48grams - 2.52grams]
Looks like 14.4 because you have to add them all together and divide by the total numbers
(20+22+10+5+15)/ 5
Answer:
A. Slope is -12 feet per second
B. Yes, it is constant.
<u>Skills needed: Linear Equations, Substitution and Division</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Solving Part A (we need to find the slope):
- The slope is
--> 
, 
, 
, and 
are all values from the table. We know that the left column is the x-values, and the right column is the y-values as that is the conventional way of depicting them.
2) Using the y-values of 1150 and 1090, and their corresponding x-values (5 and 10 respectively), we can get the slope:
- ==> 
==> 
==> 
, so the slope is -12.
==================================================================
1) Part B (analysis)
We can see that no matter what 2 y-values and their corresponding x values we use, the slope always is the same. This means that the rate of change is constant.
