The IRS was interested in the number of individual tax forms prepared by small accounting firms. The IRS randomly sampled 50 public accounting firms with 10 or fewer employees in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The following frequency table reports the results of the study.
Number of Clients Frequency
25 up to 40 3
40 up to 55 11
55 up to 70 24
70 up to 85 8
85 up to 100 4
Estimate the mean and the standard deviation. Round squared deviations to the nearest whole number and the final answer to 2 decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Estimates of the number of individual tax forms prepared by small accounting firms:

1. Mean = 10

2. Standard deviation = 7.56

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of Clients     Frequency    Mean Diff   Squared Deviation

25 up to 40                       3                  -7                    49

40 up to 55                      11                     1                       1

55 up to 70                     24                  14                   196

70 up to 85                       8                    -2                     4

85 up to 100                     4                   -6                   36

Sum                               50                                       286

Mean of frequencies = 10 (50/5)                            57.2 (286/5)

Standard deviation = square root of 57.2 = 7.56

b) The IRS can obtain the mean value of the number of individual tax forms prepared by small accounting firms by dividing the sum of the frequencies by the numbers (50/5).  Similarly, the IRS can calculate the standard deviation of the number of individual tax forms prepared by small accounting firms, which measures how spread out the data is about the mean value, by working out the mean of the frequency numbers.  Then subtract the mean for each number and square each result.  Add up the squared differences and divide by the number to get the mean.  Finally, take the square root of the mean differences.

The coordinates of the vertices of △XYZ are X(−5, 5), Y(−3, −2), and Z(4, 0). The slope of XZ is __, the slope of YZ is __, and the slope of XY is __. △XYZ __ a right triangle because ____________.

-7/2 -5/9 -2/7 2/7 9/5 is is not no two of these slopes have a product of -1 two of these problems have a product of -1

Answers

Answer:

Slope of XZ = -5/9

Slope of YZ  = 2/7

Slope of XY  = -7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is expressed as;

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

For XZ

X(−5, 5), and Z(4, 0)

Slope of XZ = 0-5/4-(-5)

Slope of XZ = -5/4+5

Slope of XZ = -5/9

For YZ

Y(−3, −2), and Z(4, 0).

Slope of YZ = 0-(-2)/4-(-3)

Slope of YZ = 2/4+3

Slope of YZ  = 2/7

For XY

X(−5, 5), Y(−3, −2)

Slope of XY = -2-5/-3-(-5)

Slope of XY = -7/-3+5

Slope of XY = -7/2

For two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slope must be -1

Taking the product of XY and YZ

mXY * mYZ = -7/2 * 2/7

mXY * mYZ  = -1

since the product of mXY and mYZ is -1. this shows that line XY is perpendicular to YZ and showing that the triangle XYZ is right triangle

Max delivers 8,520 pieces of mail in one year. If he delivers the same number of pieces of mail each month, about how many pieces of mail does he deliver in 2 months? Solve the problem and explain the steps you took to solve.​

Answers

Answer:

Because there are 12 months in a year the ratio of the number of pieces of mail Max delivers in 12 months can be written as: 852012 or 7101 (720 pieces of mail per month).

Answer:

He would deliver 1420 mails in 2 month's

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I divided 8,520 by 12 because 12 month's in one 1 year

Then, I get 710, that is the amount he delivers each month

Lastly, I multiply 710 by 2 because that is the amount for 2 month's and it equals 1,420 so, the answer is 1,420 :)

The graph of a system of linear equations with the same slope and the same y-intercepts will have no solutions.
Always
Sometimes
Never

Answers

Answer:

Never

Step-by-step explanation:

If two equations have the same slopes and the same y-intercepts they are equivalent to each other

Here's why:

The formula for a linear equation is y= mx +b

b= y- intercept

m= slope

m and b are only variable that have to be replaced by a number for the equation to be complete

Therefore, when m and b (or the slope and the y-intercept)  of both equations are the same, the two equations are the same

The answer would be allrealnumbers, not nosolutions

What is the slope of the line shown in the graph?
A 3/2
B) 2/3
C) -3/4
D) -2/3

Answers

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

y-intercept is (0, 3)

x-intercept is (4.5, 0)

formula to find the slope from two points is

[tex]slope = m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2} \\ [/tex]

then the slope of the line that crosses (0, 3) & (4.5, 0) is

[tex]m = \frac{3 - 0}{0 - 4.5} = \frac{3}{ - 4.5} = - \frac{3}{ \frac{9}{2} } = - \frac{2}{3} [/tex]

D. -2/3 because when you find when the line lies on 1 point twice. Count down it would be 2 and count over it would be 3. The direction of the line is going down so that would be negative.
