Set A of six numbers has a standard deviation of 3 and set B of four numbers has a standard deviation of 5. Both sets of numbers have an equal mean. If the two sets of numbers are combined, find the variance.​

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

[tex]\sigma_A=3[/tex]

[tex]n_A=6[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_B=5[/tex]

[tex]n_B=4[/tex]

[tex]\overline{x}_A=\overline{x}_B[/tex]

To find:

The variance. of combined set.

Solution:

Formula for variance is

[tex]\sigma^2=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x})^2}{n}[/tex]      ...(i)

Using (i), we get

[tex]\sigma_A^2=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_A)^2}{n_A}[/tex]

[tex](3)^2=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_A)^2}{6}[/tex]

[tex]9=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_A)^2}{6}[/tex]

[tex]54=\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_A)^2[/tex]

Similarly,

[tex]\sigma_B^2=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_B)^2}{n_B}[/tex]

[tex](5)^2=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_B)^2}{4}[/tex]

[tex]25=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_B)^2}{4}[/tex]

[tex]100=\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_B)^2[/tex]

Now, after combining both sets, we get

[tex]\sigma^2=\dfrac{\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_A)^2+\sum (x_i-\overline{x}_B)^2}{n_A+n_B}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma^2=\dfrac{54+100}{6+4}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma^2=\dfrac{154}{10}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma^2=15.4[/tex]

Therefore, the variance of combined set is 15.4.

The surface area for a rectangular prism is given by the formula SA = 2ab + 2bc + 2ac, where a, b, and c are the lengths of the prism. If the surface area of a rectangular prism with side c measuring 12 meters is 434 square meters and length of side a measuring the same length as side b, then what is the length of side a of the rectangular prism?

Answers

Answer:

We are given

We are also given  and , which allows us to rewrite the equation as

(I substituted every "b" with "a" and every "c" with "9").

The solutions to this quadratic equation are -25 and 7. We discard -25 because a side with negative length would make no sense.

The required measure of side a of the rectangular prism is a = 9.3 meters.

What is surface area?

The surface area of any shape is the area of the shape that is faced or the Surface area is the amount of area covering the exterior of a 3D shape.

Here,
SA = 2ab + 2bc + 2ac
434 = 2a² + 14a + 14a
434 = 2a² + 28a
2a² + 28a - 434 = 0
a² + 14a - 217 = 0
a² + 14a + 49 - 49 - 217 = 0
(a + 7)² = 266
a = 9.3 or a = -23.3

Since the negative measure of length can be neglected.
a = 9.3 = b

Thus, the required measure of side a of the rectangular prism is a = 9.3 meters.

The lines AB and CB intersect at B
(a) Find the co-ordinates of the midpoint of AB
(b) Find the equation of the line CB​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Soln

given,

from the figure

coordinate of B is (5,3),

A(7,0) and C(0,4)

A. solution

let, M(x,y) be the mid point of AB

A(7,0) = (x1,y1)

B(5,3) = (x2,y2)

we know

x = (x2+x1)/2

or, x = (5+7)/2

or, x = 12/2

or, x = 6

and for y

y = (y2+y1)/2

or, y = (3+0)/2

or, y = 3/2

therefore M(x,y) = (6,3/2)

B. solution

let,

C(0,4) = (x1,y1)

B(5,3) = (x2,y2)

equation of line is ;

(y - y1)/(x - x1) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

or, (y - 4)/(x -0) = (3 - 4)/(5 - 0)

or, (y - 4)/(x - 0) = -1 / 5

by cross multiply

or, 5×(y - 4) = -1×(x)

or, 5y - 20 = -x

or, x + 5y = 20 is the required equation.

Start by expanding the numerator.

5x+30-30+15x / 3x-1 = 10

Simplify.

20x / 3x-1 = 10

A market research survey has 15 questions and will be sent to 500 people. What is the total cost to conduct the survey if it has a $1,000 base fee plus $5 per question and $2 per person surveyed?

Answers

Answer:

Total cost to conduct survey = $2075

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of questions on survey = 15

Number of people = 500

Base fee = $1000

Per question charge = $5

Per person surveyed = $2

Let,

q be the number of questions

p be the number of people

Total cost = Base fee + 5q + 2p

Total cost = 1000 + 5(15) + 2(500)

Total cost = 1000 + 75 + 1000

Total cost = $2075

Hence,

Total cost to conduct survey = $2075

If bricks are each 3 inches × 4 inches × 8 inches, how many bricks can be fit into a space which is 1 foot × 4 feet × 8 feet?

A 1 to 250
B 251 to 500
C 501 to 750
D 751 to 1000
E >1000

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The dimensions of bricks are in inches so convert foot into inches.

1 foot = 12 in

4 feet = 48 in

8 feet = 96 in

To calculate the number of bricks that fit into space we divide the space's volume by the volume of 1 brick.

[tex]\text{Number of bricks in space}=\dfrac{12\times 48 \times96}{3\times 4 \times8}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Number of bricks in space}=576[/tex]

Hence, 576 bricks can be fit into a space.

Therefore the correct option is B.

Substitute 5x for y in equation 1.

5x= 4x + 9

5x - 4x = 9 (Collect like terms 5 and 4 have x in common if +4 crossover it changes to -4)
