The question is incomplete. The complete question is:
Health issues are a concern of managers, especially as they evaluate the cost of medical insurance. A recent survey of 150 executives at Elvers Industries, a large insurance and financial firm located in the Southwest, reported the number of pounds by which the executives were overweight. Compute the mean and the standard deviation.
Pounds Overweight Frequency
0 up to 6 14
6 up to 12 42
12 up to 18 58
18 up to 24. 28
24 up to 30. 8
Solution:
This is grouped data. We would determine the midpoint or class mark, x of each class by taking their averages.
The table would become
Class. x f fx
0 up to 6 (0+6)/2 = 3 14 42
6 up to 12 (6+12)/2 = 9 42 378
12 up to 18 (12+18)/2 = 15 58 870
18 up to 24 (18+24)/2= 21 28 588
24 up to 30 (24+30)/2 = 27 8 216
Summation f = 14 + 42 + 58 + 28 + 8 = 150
Summation fx = 42 + 378 + 870 + 588 + 216 = 2094
Mean = Summation fx/Summation f
Mean, m = 2094/150 = 13.96
Standard deviation = √summation of f(x - m)²)/(n - 1)
We would create another column on the table
f x x - m f(x - m)²
14 3 - 10.96 1681.7024
42 9 - 4.96 1033.2672

28 21 7.04 1387.7248
8 27 12.04 1159.6928
Total = 5325.12
Standard deviation = √5325.12/150 - 1)
Standard deviation = 5.98

The circle above has an area of 144 pi cm^2. What is the area of the blue sector? Use 3.14 for pi.
Answer:
150.72 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The blue area has an angle of 120 degrees, and 120/360 = 1/3, which shows that the blue area is 1/3 of the circle. In that case, the blue area is just 144pi/3. That simplifies to 48 pi.
48*3.14 = 150.72
A wire 18cm long is cut into 2 pieces. the longer piece is 2 cm longer than the shorter piece. Find the lenght of the shorter piece

8cm
Step-by-step explanation:
If the pieces are 8cm and 10cm they will still add up to 18cm but the longer piece is 2cm longer so both conditions are satisfied.
One of the methods forensic investigators use for estimating the age at death of a human, or the age of a living individual (for example for legal reasons or to verify identity) is based on measurement of the biochemical changes in amino acids within the teeth or bones. As bones and teeth age the ratio (R/L) of two amino acids, denoted simply as R and L, increases. The biochemical changes that occur over time in these amino acids follow an exponential law. The age t, in years, can be estimated from (R/L) using the equation t = b0 + b1*LN((1+R/L)/(1-R/L))^(), where LN denotes the natural logarithm (logarithm base e). This Excel file has data on the ratio (R/L) from the teeth of human subjects of known age.

Answer: A = 93.8 cm so if you round up it's about 100 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Area means you have to multiply all measurements by each other in any order of course because it doesn't matter in this case.
14 * 10 * 10 = 1400
Now you can/should divide the answer which is (1400) by how many measurements you have times the sides it has, sides - which is 5 , measurements - which is 3, so it would look like this:

Step-by-step explanation:
The angle of an arc is the same as the central angle. MarcCD is the same as the central angle COD which is given as 130o.
That means there are 50 degrees left for COA and DOA and because the chord and the diameter are equal, COA = DOA
That means that COA is 1/2 what is left over from 180 when 130 is subtracted from it.
1/2 * 50 = 25
The answer is A 25.
A submarine is positioned at 300 feet below sea level. A bird is flying 100 foot above sea
level. How many feet above the submarine is the bird?
-300-200-1000
100 200 300
Answer:
h = 400 ft
The bird is 400 ft above the submarine
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
The submarine is 300 feet below sea level
Vertical distance between submarine and sea level h1 = 300 feet
The bird is flying at 100 feet above sea level
Vertical distance between the sea level and the bird h2 = 100 feet
The total vertical distance between the bird and the submarine is the sum of the vertical distance between submarine and sea level and the vertical distance between the sea level and the bird.
h = h1 + h2
h = 300 ft + 100 ft
h = 400 ft
The bird is 400 ft above the submarine
Answer:
The bird is 400 ft above the submarine

Use Table C to estimate a 90% confidence interval for the mean gain of all students who are coached.
at 90% confidence.
Now test the hypothesis that the score gain for coached students is greater than the score gain for uncoached students. Let μ1 be the score gain for all coached students. Let μ2 be the score gain for uncoached students.
(a) Give the alternative hypothesis:
μ1 - μ2.
(b) Give the t test statistic:
(c) Give the appropriate critical value for \alpha =5%:
Solution:
The formula for determining the confidence interval for the difference of two population means is expressed as
Confidence interval = (x1 - x2) ± z√(s²/n1 + s2²/n2)
Where
x1 = sample mean score gain for all coached students
x2 = sample mean score gain for all uncoached students
s1 = sample standard deviation score gain of coached students
s2 = sample standard deviation score gain of uncoached students
For a 90% confidence interval, the z score is 1.645
From the information given,
x1 = 29
s1 = 59
n1 = 427
x2 = 21
s2 = 52
n2 = 2733
x1 - x2 = 29 - 21 = 8
z√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2) = 1.645√(59²/427 + 52²/2733) = 4.97
90% Confidence interval = 8 ± 4.97
a) The population standard deviations are not known. it is a two-tailed test. The random variable is μ1 - μ2 = difference in the score gain for coached and uncoached students.
We would set up the hypothesis.
The null hypothesis is
H0 : μ1 = μ2 H0 : μ1 - μ2 = 0
The alternative hypothesis is
H1 : μ1 > μ2 H1 : μ1 - μ2 > 0
This is a right tailed test.
b) Since sample standard deviation is known, we would determine the test statistic by using the t test. The formula is
(x1 - x2)/√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)
t = (29 - 21)/√(59²/427 + 52²/2733)
t = 2.65
The formula for determining the degree of freedom is
df = [s1²/n1 + s2²/n2]²/(1/n1 - 1)(s1²/n1)² + (1/n2 - 1)(s2²/n2)²
df = [59²/427 + 52²/2733]²/[(1/427 - 1)(59²/427)² + (1/2733 - 1)(52²/2733)²] = 9.14/0.1564
df = 58
c) from the t distribution table, the critical value is 1.67
In order to reject the null hypothesis, the test statistic must be smaller than - 1.67 or greater than 1.67
Since - 2.65 < - 1.67 and 2.65 < 1.67, we would reject the null hypothesis.
Therefore, at 5% significance level, we can conclude that the score gain for coached students is greater than the score gain for uncoached students.

Giraffes have excellent vision. Refer to the African Zoology (Oct. 2013) study of a giraffe’s eyesight. Recall that the researchers measured the eye mass for a sample of 27 giraffes native to Zimbabwe, Africa, and found x = 53.4 grams and s = 8.6 grams. Suppose the objective is to sample enough giraffes in order to obtain an estimate of the mean eye mass to within 3 grams of its true value with a 99% confidence interval.A. Identify the cofidence coefficient for this study. B. Identify the desired sampling error for this study. C. Fnd the sample size required to obtain the desired estimate of the true mean.
Answer:
(a) The confidence coefficient is 2.779.
(b) The desired sampling error for this study is the margin of error, ±3.
(c) The sample size required to obtain the desired estimate of the true mean is 55.
Step-by-step explanation:
The information provided is:
[tex]\bar x=53.4\ \text{grams}\\s=8.6\ \text{grams}\\n=27\\\text{Confidence Level} = 99\%[/tex]
(a)
As the sample size is n = 27 < 30 and the population standard deviation is not provided a t-interval would be used to estimate the true mean.
So, the confidence coefficient for the 99% confidence interval for true mean is:
[tex]t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}=t_{0.01/2, (27-1)}=t_{0.005, 26}=2.779[/tex]
*Use the t-table.
Thus, the confidence coefficient is 2.779.
(b)
The error caused due to incorrect sample selection, i.e. a sample that is not a true representative of the population is known as the sampling error.
In this case the sampling error is known as the margin of error of the confidence interval.
The margin of error is:
MOE = 3 grams
Thus, the desired sampling error for this study is the margin of error, ±3.
(c)
Assume that the ample size required to obtain the desired estimate of the true mean is quite large, such that the sampling distribution of sample mean follows a normal distribution according to the central limit theorem.
Then the margin of error for a z-interval for mean is:
[tex]\text{MOE}=z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
MOE = 3 grams
The critical value of z for 99% confidence level is:
[tex]z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.01/2}=z_{0.005}=2.58[/tex]
*Use a z-table.
Compute the sample size as follows:
[tex]\text{MOE}=z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]n=[\frac{z_{\alpha/2}\times s}{MOE}]^{2}[/tex]
[tex]=[\frac{2.58\times 8.6}{3}]^{2}\\\\=54.700816\\\\\approx 55[/tex]
Thus, the sample size required to obtain the desired estimate of the true mean is 55.

Which of the following is a property of translations that is not also a property of other types of rigid motions? (1) they map line segments to other line segments of equal length (2) they map angles to other angles of the same size (3) they map lines to parallel lines (4) they map lines to perpendicular lines
Answer:
3 I think it's 3. sorry if I'm wrong
The correct answer is (3) they map lines to parallel lines
Transformation is the movement of a point from the initial location to a new location. Types of transformation is rotation, reflection, translation and dilation.
Translation is the movement of a point up, down, left or right in the coordinate plane.
Translation is a rigid transformation, that is, it preserves the size and shape of the figure. Reflection and rotation are also rigid transformation.
Translation maps lines to parallel lines whereas rotation does not since it changes the direction of the line.

Given the following exponential function, identify whether the change represents
growth or decay, and determine the percentage rate of increase or decrease.
y = 940(1.89)
Answer: The change represents growth with 89% of growth rate.
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential function is given by :-
[tex]f(x)= Ab^x[/tex]... (i)
Where , A = initial value , b= multiplicative factor and x= time period
We call 'b' growth factor when b>1, we can write b= 1+r , where r is the rate of growth.We call 'b' decay factor when b<1 , we can write b= 1-r , where r is the rate of decay.The given function : [tex]y = 940(1.89)^x[/tex].
By comparing this to (i) , we get
b= 1.89 > 1 , thus it represent the growth.
Also,
[tex]b= 1+r\Rightarrow\ 1.89 = 1+r\\\\\Rightarrow\ r=1.89-1=0.89[/tex]
i.e. Percentage rate of growth = 0.89 x 100 = 89%.

In a large class in statistics, the final examination grades have a mean of 67.4 and a standard deviation of 12. Assuming that the distribution of these grades is normal, the number of passes in a class of 180 is:_________ (if you get a number with decimals points, round up to the next whole number)
Answer:
The number of passes in a class of 180 is 75.
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem does not state, so I will suppose the passing grade is 70.
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question:
[tex]\mu = 67.4, \sigma = 12[/tex]
Proportion of students who passed:
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 70. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{70 - 67.4}{12}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.22[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.22[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.5871.
1 - 0.5871 = 0.4129
Out of 180:
0.4129*180 = 74.32
Rounding up
The number of passes in a class of 180 is 75.

Given a regular octagon, in how many ways can we color one diagonal red and another diagonal blue so that the two colored diagonals cross (in the interior)? Consider rotations and reflections distinct.
Answer:
Rotation = 1.
Reflection = 5 or 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
A regular octagon is the octagon that has eight, 8 sides and all these eight sides are equal.
So, if we are going to consider rotation and reflection distinct in order to color one diagonal red and another diagonal blue so that the two colored diagonals cross (in the interior) we can do that by following the steps Below;
=> Make sure that the first diagonal with the red color is drawn first.
=> to another make fixing to another end.
=> Determine the possibilities.
The numbers of times can be gotten by using Burnside Lemma which gives Rotation = 1 And Reflection = 5 or 4.

Using the distance formula:
Distance between 2 points [tex]P (x_1,y_1) \text{ and } Q (x_2,y_2)[/tex] is given by formula:
PQ = [tex]\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
Side AB is along x-axis, side AB =
[tex]\sqrt{(2-0)^2+(2-2)^2}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt{4}\\\Rightarrow 2\ units[/tex]
Similarly side, BC = 2 units
Now, in [tex]\triangle[/tex]A'B'C', A'B' can be calculated by distance formula:
[tex]\sqrt{(1+4)^2+(-1- (-1))^2}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt{25}\\\Rightarrow 5\ units[/tex]
B'C' = 5 units
The ratio of sides:
AB : A'B' = 2:5
[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{AB}{A'B'} = \dfrac{2}{5}\\\Rightarrow A'B' = \dfrac{5}{2} AB[/tex]
So, scaling factor is [tex]\dfrac{5}{2}[/tex] or 2.5.

How much of other chemicals must be evaporated from 400 grams of a hand sanitizer that is 24% alcohol to strengthen it to a hand sanitizer that is 30% alcohol? Correct your answer to the nearest whole number
Answer:
Mass of other chemicals to be evaporated is 24 grams.
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial mass of the hand sanitizer = 400 grams, and has an alcohol content of 24%.
mass of its alcohol content = [tex]\frac{24}{100}[/tex] × 400
= 96 grams
mass of non-alcoholic content = 400 - 96
= 304 grams
If the percentage of alcohol is increased to 30%, then;
mass of its alcohol content = [tex]\frac{30}{100}[/tex] × 400
= 120 grams
The mass of other chemicals to be evaporated = 120 - 90
= 24 grams
