The standard deviation of a set of numbers is 22.2. What would the standard deviation be if each one of the numbers in the set was decreased by 4?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There would be no change in the standard deviation if each one of the numbers in the set was decreased by 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the standard deviation of a set of numbers is 22.2.

And we have to check that what would be the standard deviation, if each one of the numbers in the set was decreased by 4.

For concluding this, we will take a simple example;

Suppose that there are three set of numbers : 6, 8 and 10

Firstly, we will calculate the standard deviation for these numbers;

           X                        [tex]X - \bar X[/tex]                        [tex](X-\bar X)^{2}[/tex]

           6                      6 - 8 = -2                           4

           8                      8 - 8 = 0                            0

          10                     10 - 8 = 2                           4    

                                                                             8    

Here, the Mean of the three numbers is given by;

        Mean, [tex]\bar X[/tex]  =  [tex]\frac{6+8+10}{3}[/tex]  = 8

Now, standard deviation formula is given by;

      Standard deviation, s  =  [tex]\sqrt{\frac{(\sum X - \bar X)^{2} }{n-1} }[/tex]  

                                            =  [tex]\sqrt{\frac{8 }{3-1} }[/tex]  = 2

Now, we will decrease each of the three numbers by 4, we get ;

              X                        [tex]X - \bar X[/tex]                        [tex](X-\bar X)^{2}[/tex]

              2                      2 - 4 = -2                           4

              4                      4 - 4 = 0                            0

              6                      6 - 4 = 2                           4    

                                                                                8    

Here, the Mean of the three numbers is given by;

        Mean, [tex]\bar X[/tex]  =  [tex]\frac{2+4+6}{3}[/tex]  = 4

Now, standard deviation formula is given by;

      Standard deviation, s  =  [tex]\sqrt{\frac{(\sum X - \bar X)^{2} }{n-1} }[/tex]  

                                            =  [tex]\sqrt{\frac{8 }{3-1} }[/tex]  = 2

From this, we observe that even after decreasing each number by 4, the standard deviation remains same.

SO, we can conclude that if each one of the numbers in the set was decreased by 4 , the standard deviation of a set of numbers will be 22.2 only.

A triangular prism is 4 millimeters long. It has a triangular face with a base of 13 millimeters. The volume of the prism is 416 cubic millimeters. What is the height of its triangular face? Height = millimeters

Answers

Answer:

16 millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the Triangular Prism=4 millimetersBase Length of One Triangular Face=13 millimeters.Volume of the Prism =416 cubic millimeters.

Now:

Volume of a Prism=Base Area X Prism Length

Since we have a triangular base:

Volume of the Prism=(0.5 X Base X Height) X Prism Length

Substituting the given values, we obtain:

416=(0.5 X 13 X Height) X 4

416=26 X Height

Divide both sides by 26

Height of its triangular face=16 millimeters

Answer:

h = 16 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Th volume of the prism is:

[tex] V = A*l [/tex] (1)

Where:

V. is the volume of the triangular prism = 416 mm³

A. is the area of the prism = ?

l: is the large of the prism = 4 mm

The area of the triangular face of the prism is:

[tex] A = \frac{1}{2}bh [/tex]  (2)

Where:

b: is the base of the triangular face = 13 mm

h: is the height of the triangular face = ?

From equation (1) we have:

[tex] V = A*l [/tex]

[tex] A = \frac{V}{l} = \frac{416 mm^{3}}{4 mm} = 104 mm^{2} [/tex]

Now, using equation (2) we can find the height of the triangular face:

[tex] A = \frac{1}{2}bh [/tex]

[tex] h = \frac{2A}{b} = \frac{2*104 mm^{2}}{13 mm} = 16 mm [/tex]

Therefore, the height of the triangular face is 16 mm.

2) Rearrange the Pythagorean Theorem to solve first for c and then y.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=z-\sqrt{-y} , or, x^2=z^2-y^2\\y=z-\sqrt{-x}, or, y^2=z^2-x^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

I can't do much except put the Pythagorean theorem in terms of y or x.

All I did was isolate x or y by subtracting the, x or y variable from each side.

[tex]-(y^2)+x^2 +y^2=z^2-(x^2)\\-(y^2)+x^2 +y^2=z^2-(y^2)[/tex]

Which tuns it into:

[tex]x^2=z^2-y^2\\y^2=z^2-x^2[/tex]

And I isolated further by squaring each side, but squaring negative number is difficult and causes imaginary numbers so I just think it should stay as all of them to the power of two.

How to rearrange the Pythagorean theory

Answers

It’s what I think you’re saying is right, you can swap a and b in the Pythagorean theory. Because you’re just adding a and b which equals c. Squared those are of course

Can someone please explain to me how to find y=Mx+b? We’ve learned this a long time ago and I kinda forgot .. can’t find a solution anywhere else :/

Answers

Answer:

y = mx + b equals y = the slope of the line(x) + the y-intercept

First find the slope of the line using rise/run, which is 12/-2 so the slope is -6

To find the y-intercept, you need to look for the point where x = 0 (or the point that lies on the y-axis), which is when y = -4 so the equation is:

y = -6x - 4


It is worked out that if 3 ladles full of soup are given to each person,
150 people can be fed.
The customers have complained in the past that the portions are too small.
The cook decides to give 5 ladles full of soup to each person.
How many people can now be fed soup?

Answers

Answer:

it is worked out that if 5 ladles full soup are given to each person 300 at a time

Answer:

90 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the total number of ladels of soup.

1 person ----- 3 ladles

150 people ----- 3 ×150= 450 ladles

The amount of soup cooked does not change. Since now more soup is given to each person, the number of customers fed would decrease.

Number of people fed

= 450 ÷5

= 90

Patty Cake and Jim Nasium are flying a kite. Patty is 200 m away from Jim who is holding the kite. Facing Jim, Patty finds the angle of elevation of the kite is 40 degrees . If the kite string makes an angle of 85 degrees with the ground, find the amount of string let out by Jim.

Answers

Answer:

Amount of string let out by Jim will be 156.9 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between Jim and Patty = 200 m

Angle of elevation of the kite from Jim = 85°

Angle of elevation of the kite from Patty = 40°

Angle between the lines joining Jim and kite and Patty and the kite = 180° - (85 + 40)° = 55°

By applying Sine rule in the triangle formed by the kite, Jim and Patty,

[tex]\frac{\text{sin}55}{200}=\frac{\text{sin}40}{x}[/tex]

x = [tex]\frac{200\times \text{sin}40}{\text{sin55}}[/tex]

x = 156.94

  ≈ 156.9 m

Therefore, amount of string let out by Jim will be 156.9 m.

estimate the line of best fit using two points on the line (2,8) (8,5)

Answers

Answer:

y= -1/2x +9

Step-by-step explanation:

The line equation of best fit is y = (-1/2)x+9 if the two points on the line are (2,8) and (8,5) option (C) is correct.

What is a linear equation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation one variable is present then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

We have two points (2, 8) and (8, 5)

To find the line of best fit using these two points:

[tex]\rm (y-y_1)=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)[/tex]
[tex]\rm (y-8)=\frac{5-8}{8-2} (x-2)[/tex]

[tex]\rm (y-8)=-\frac{3}{6} (x-2)\\\\\rm (y-8)=-\frac{1}{2} (x-2)[/tex]

[tex]\rm y = - \frac{1}{2} x +9[/tex]

Thus, the line equation of best fit is y = (-1/2)x+9 if the two points on the line are (2,8) and (8,5) option (C) is correct.

Answer: See the explanation to understand.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well first off you have to understand the area concept. The area is shown on the grid clearly fir the square, 4cm (2x2). Now it might be a little tricky for the triangle but don’t worry, take it slowly, count the areas of the base of the triangle, the correct answer for that is 2cm so the base of the triangle is 2cm. Now go to highest point of the triangle and count down all the way to the base. The number you should get is 4. So now we know that the base is 2cm and the height is 4cm. Using the triangle Area formula which is base times height divided by two: bh/2 , substituting the values we have 2x4 is 8. 8 divided by two is 4cm. Now we know that the areas are the same by checking using the formula.

Let f(x) and g(x) are the two functions with domain A and B.

Then (fg)(x) will be the function with domain A∩B

(fg)(x) = f(x)g(x)   Domain : A∩B

In this question two functions are,

c(x) = [tex]\frac{5}{(x-2)}[/tex] and d(x) = (x + 3)

Domain : (x - 2) > 0 ⇒ x > 2

              and (x - 2) < 0 ⇒ x < 2

Or domain of (cd)(x) will be C = (-∞, 2)∪(2, ∞).

Similarly, d(x) = x + 3

Domain : All real numbers

             : D = (-∞, ∞)

(cd)(x) = c(x)d(x)

          = [tex]\frac{5}{(x-2)}\times (x+3)[/tex]

Domain of (cd)(x) will be,

Domain : C∩D = (-∞, 2)∪(2, ∞) ∩ (-∞, ∞)

             : (-∞, 2) ∩ (2, ∞)

Therefore, domain of (cd)(x) will be all real values except 2.

Answers

Answer:

(-8,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+9y=23

-2x+y=23

 Step 1. When looking at the equation you need to find out what method you must use and a good way to find out if you use subtraction is to look for a variable of 1

just like -2x+y=23 has the variable 1y

 Step 2. solve for y in the second equation

-2x+y=23

+2x       +2x

y=2x+23

Step 3. rewrite your equation

5x+9y=23

y=2x+23

 Step 4. replace your y variable with the expression you just made

5x+9(2x+23)=23

Step 5. Distribute the 9 and solve

5x+18x+207=23

23x+207=23

23x=-184

x=-8

Step 6. enter your x value into the equation you solved in step one

y=2(-8)+23

y=-16+23

y=7

Step 7. determine if consistent or inconsistent

Because you have a x and y you have an consistent
