Answer:
larger number: 13
smaller number: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helps! :)
The main thing you need to know for this question is this conversion:
1 L = 1000 mL , or 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters.
So, let's make the entire problem into milliliters:
The carton of milk has 2,500 mL, and Zoe drinks 500 mL a day (250 twice a day).
To find the number of days the bottle will last, you divide the total amount of milk by the amount she drinks per day:
2,500 / 500 = 5 days
Answer:
(a) 100
(b) 10.27
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given
No of elements = 15
Σ(x-c) = 72,Σ(x-c)^2 = 499.6
,where c is a constant
and the sample mean is 104.8.
(a) lets take into account Σ(x-c) = 72
this means that we have the sum of the 15 elements of x and each element of x is subtracted by the constant c
so the equation becomes Σxi -15c = 72, ............(1)
where xi means the sum of the elements of x from 1 to 15.
we are given the mean as 104.8
this means that Σxi/15 = 104.8
Σxi = 15*104.8 = 1572 .............(2)
substituting (2) in (1)
we get
1572 - 15c = 72
15c = 1500
c = 100
(b) We will use the property that variance does not change when a constant value is added or subtracted to the elements. This we can observe in the given equation that c is a constant that has the value of 100.
so the variance is
σ^2 = Σ(x-c)^2/15 - (Σ(x-c)/15 )^2
= 499.6/15 - (72/15)^2
= 33.31 - 23.04
σ^2 = 10.27
Therefore the variance of the given problem is 10.27.
