<span>The distribution of a data set is indicated by the standard deviation, and the range can serve as an estimate for this characteristic. Consequently, Set b (100, 140, 150, 160, 200, 10, 50, 60, 70, 110) exhibits the greatest standard deviation due to its 190 range (i.e., 200 - 10).</span>

the shorter sides of an acute triangle are x cm and 2x cm. the longest side of the trinalge is 15 cm. what is the smallest possi
Leona [12618]
The smallest whole-number value for x that works is 7. The triangle’s sides can be defined as: a = x, b = 2x, and c = 15. Recognizing c as the longest side leads us to the condition for an acute triangle: c^2 must be less than a^2 + b^2. Inputting the known values, we solve for x and find that x must exceed 6.708. As a result, the least integer that satisfies this requirement is 7.

J.J.Bean sells a wide variety of outdoor equipment and clothing. The company sells both through mail order and via the internet.
babunello [11817]

The 99% confidence interval for the actual mean difference between average mail-order and internet purchase amounts falls within [$(-31.82), $12.02].

Step-by-step clarification:

We know a random sample of 16 mail-order sales receipts shows a mean sale amount of $74.50 and a standard deviation of $17.25.

For internet sales, a random sample of 9 receipts gives a mean sale amount of $84.40 with a standard deviation of $21.25.

The pivotal value utilized for constructing a 99% confidence interval for the true mean difference is given by;

                      P.Q.  =  

 ~

where,

= sample mean of mail-order sales = $74.50 \frac{(\bar X_1-\bar X_2)-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_p \times \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2} } }t__n_1_+_n_2_-_2

= sample mean of internet sales = $84.40

\bar X_1 = standard deviation for mail-order sales = $17.25

\bar X_2 = standard deviation for internet sales = $21.25

s_1 = number of mail-order sales receipts = 16

= number of internet sales receipts = 9s_2

Furthermore,  

 =  n_1 = 18.74

n_2

The actual mean difference between average mail-order and internet purchases is denoted by (s_p =\sqrt{\frac{(n_1-1)\times s_1^{2}+(n_2-1)\times s_2^{2} }{n_1+n_2-2} }\sqrt{\frac{(16-1)\times 17.25^{2}+(9-1)\times 21.25^{2} }{16+9-2} }

).

Thus, the 99% confidence interval for (\mu_1-\mu_2) is expressed as;

      = \mu_1-\mu_2 Here, the t critical value at the 0.5% significance level with 23 degrees of freedom is 2.807.           =

          = [$-31.82, $12.02](\bar X_1-\bar X_2) \pm t_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times s_p \times \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2}}

Therefore, the 99% confidence interval for the true mean difference between average mail-order and internet purchases is [$(-31.82), $12.02].

(74.50-84.40) \pm (2.807 \times 18.74 \times \sqrt{\frac{1}{16} +\frac{1}{9}})

Peter is at a lumber yard. He gets 2 free boxes of nails for every 10 boards he buys. Write an expression for the number of boxe
AnnZ [12381]
A. The quantity of 10-boards that Peter purchases is equal to n divided by 10. Consequently, each of the 10-boxes will receive two boxes of nails. After purchasing n boards, the formula for the number of boxes of nails Peter will have will be,

N = (2)(n/10)

When simplified,

N = n/5

b. If the total number of boards is 90, then,

N2 = (90/10)(2)(100 nails/box)
N2 = 1800

Final Answer: 1800

How is subtracting polynomials similar to subtracting integers
Inessa [12570]
The process of subtracting polynomials resembles removing integers, as both involve regular subtraction. For instance, 3xy - 2xy results in 1xy. The same rules of subtraction apply when working with polynomials.

zzz [12365]

Answer:

1.4×10⁻⁵=0.000014

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the exponent of the 10 term is negative, shift the decimal point to the left by 5 positions;
