You don't even have to look up the definition of 'standard deviation'. You only
have to remember that 'smaller standard deviation' means 'less spread-out'.

First, let's find the mean (average). It's not supposed to change:

1/7th of (65 + 71 + 77 + 80 + 82 + 90 + 96) = 561/7 = 80 and 1/7 .

Now, just pick 7 scores that total 561 and are all bunched up.

The easiest way would be 80, 80, 80, 80, 80, 80, 81 .
But that's so easy that it feels like cheating.

Let's say 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, and 84 .

-0.75-(-2/5)+0.4+(-3/4)

RSB [31]

-0.75-(-2/5)+0.4+(-3/4) = -0.7 simplified, how I got this answer can be found below in 16 steps.

1 - First thing we want to do is remove the parentheses.

-0.75 - (-2/5) + 0.4 - 3/4

2 - Then we simplify, multiply -1 by -1.

-0.75 + 1 (2/5) + 0.4 - 3/4

3 - Then multiply 2/5 by 1.

-0.75 + 2/5 + 0.4 - 3/4

4 - Then we want to write - 0.75/1 as a fraction with a common denominator, we do this by multiplying by 5/5.

-0.75/1 * 5/5 + 2/5 + 0.4 - 3/4

5 - Then we write each expression with a common denominator of 5, we multiply each one by a factor of one.

-0.75 * 5/1*5 + 2/5 + 0.4 - 3/4

6 - Then we multiply 5 by 1.

-0.75 * 5 / 5 + 2/5 + 0.4 - 3/4

7 - Then we combine the numerators over the common denominator.

-0.75*5+2/5+0.4-3/4

8 - We multiply -0.75 by 5.

-3.75 + 2/5 + 0.4 - 3/4

9 - Then we add -3.75 and 2.

-1.75/5+0.4-3/4

10 - And then we divide -1.75 by 5.

-0.35 + 0.4 - 3/4

11 - Then add -0.35 and 0.4.

0.05 - 3/4

12 - We then write 0.05/1 as a fraction with a common denominator, we do this via multiplying it by 4/4.

0.05/1 * 4/4 - 3/4

13 - Then we write each expression with a common denominator of 4, through multiplying each by a factor of 1.

0.05 * 4/4 - 3/4

14 - We combine the numerators over the common denominator.

0.05 * 4 - 3 / 4

15 - We simplify.

-2.8 / 4

16 - Then we divide -2.8 / 4

The final answer is -0.7

Complete the table of values

Agata [3.3K]

Both problems give you a function in the second column and the x-values. To find out the values of a through f, you need to plug in those x-values into the function and simplify!

You need to know three exponent rules to simplify these expressions:
1) The negative exponent rule says that when a base has a negative exponent, flip the base onto the other side of the fraction to make it into a positive exponent. For example, $3^{-2} =
\frac{1}{3^{2} }$ .
2) Raising a fraction to a power is the same as separately raising the numerator and denominator to that power. For example, $(\frac{3}{4}) ^{3} = \frac{ 3^{3} }{4^{3} }$ .
3) The zero exponent rule says that any number raised to zero is 1. For example, $3^{0} = 1$ .


Back to the Problem:
Problem 1
The x-values are in the left column. The title of the right column tells you that the function is $y = 4^{-x}$ . The x-values are:
1) x = 0
Plug this into $y = 4^{-x}$ to find letter a:
$y = 4^{-x}\\
y = 4^{-0}\\
y = 4^{0}\\
y = 1$

2) x = 2
Plug this into $y = 4^{-x}$ to find letter b:
$y = 4^{-x}\\ 
y = 4^{-2}\\ 
y = \frac{1}{4^{2}} \\ 
y= \frac{1}{16}$

3) x = 4
Plug this into $y = 4^{-x}$ to find letter c:
$y = 4^{-x}\\ 
y = 4^{-4}\\ 
y = \frac{1}{4^{4}} \\ 
y= \frac{1}{256}$


Problem 2
The x-values are in the left column. The title of the right column tells you that the function is $y = (\frac{2}{3})^x$ . The x-values are:
1) x = 0
Plug this into $y = (\frac{2}{3})^x$ to find letter d:
$y = (\frac{2}{3})^x\\
y = (\frac{2}{3})^0\\
y = 1$

2) x = 2
Plug this into $y = (\frac{2}{3})^x$ to find letter e:
$y = (\frac{2}{3})^x\\ y = (\frac{2}{3})^2\\ y = \frac{2^2}{3^2}\\
y = \frac{4}{9}$

3) x = 4
Plug this into $y = (\frac{2}{3})^x$ to find letter f:
$y = (\frac{2}{3})^x\\ y = (\frac{2}{3})^4\\ y = \frac{2^4}{3^4}\\ y = \frac{16}{81}$

-------

Answers:
a = 1
b = $\frac{1}{16}$ 
c = $\frac{1}{256}$
d = 1
e = $\frac{4}{9}$
f = $\frac{16}{81}$

What is the answer?

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

53°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle that measures 143 is vertical to the right angle and the ? angle.

Vertical angles have the same measure. <? + <90 = <143

So do 143 - 90 = 53

So the ? angle = 53

Hope this helps ya!!
