Answer:

The standard deviation for the distribution of girths is

about the same for both male and female pigs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

We will interprete the dotplots

For the Male pigs

24, 26, 26, 26, 26, 26, 26, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 30, 30, 30, 30, 30, 30, 32

Range

Maximum value - Minimum value

= 32 - 24

= 8

IQR = Interquartile range = Q3 - Q1

Q1 formula = 1/4(n + 1)th

=n = 25

= 1/4(25 + 1)

= 1/4(26)

= 26/4

= 6.5

This mean the value is between the 6th and 7th value

6th value = 26

7th value = 26

Q1 = 26 + 26/2

Q1 = 26

Q3 formula = 3/4(n + 1)th

=n = 25

= 3/4(25 + 1)

= 3/4(26)

= 78/4

= 19.5

This mean the value is between the 19th and 20th value

19th value = 30

20th value = 30

Q3= 30+ 30/2

= 30

IQR = 30 - 26

= 4

Standard deviation

Mean

First we find the mean

= 24+ 26+26+ 26+ 26+ 26+26+28+ 28+ 28+ 28+28+ 28+ 28+28+ 28+28+28+30+ 30+30+ 30+30+30+32/28

= 700/25

= 28

Standard deviation Formula = √(x - mean)²/n - 1

= √[(24-28)² + (26- 28)² + (26 -28)² + (26 - 28)² +................ (32 - 28)²]/25 - 1

= √(16 + 4 + 4+ 4+ 4+4+ 4+0+ 0+ 0+ 0+0+ 0+ 0+ 0+0+0+0+ 4+ 4+4+4+4+ 4+ 16)/25 - 1

= √80/25 - 1

=√3.333333333

Female Pigs

21, 23, 23, 23,23,23,23,25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25,25, 27, 27, 27, 27,27, 27, 29

Range:

Maximum value - Minimum value

= 29 - 21

IQR

IQR = Interquartile range = Q3 - Q1

Q1 formula = 1/4(n + 1)th

=n = 25

= 1/4(25 + 1)

= 1/4(26)

= 26/4

= 6.5

This mean the value is between the 6th and 7th value

6th value = 23

7th value = 23

Q1 = 23 + 23/2

Q1 = 23

Q3 formula = 3/4(n + 1)th

=n = 25

= 3/4(25 + 1)

= 3/4(26)

= 78/4

= 19.5

This mean the value is between the 19th and 20th value

19th value = 27

20th value = 27

Q3= 27+ 27/2

Q3 = 27

IQR = 27 - 23

= 4

First we find the Mean

=(21+23+23+23+23+23+23+25+ 25+ 25+ 25+25+ 25+ 25+ 25+25+25+25+27+27+ 27+27+27+ 27+29)/25

= 625/25

= 25

Standard deviation Formula = √(x - mean)²/n - 1

= √[(21-25)² + (23- 25)² + (23 -25)² + (23 - 25)² +................ (29 - 25)²]/25 - 1

= √(16 + 4 + 4+ 4+ 4+4+ 4+0+ 0+ 0+ 0+0+ 0+ 0+ 0+0+0+0+ 4+ 4+4+4+4+ 4+ 16)/25 - 1

= √80/25 - 1

=√3.333333333

1.825741858

Looking at the calculation above and comparing both the girths from the male and female

We can conclude that: The standard deviation for the distribution of girths is

about the same for both male and female pigs which is 1.825741858

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

n=2

Step-by-step explanation:

2000 pounds = 1 ton 600000 pounds = X tons Hence X tons = (600000 x 1) ÷ 2000 = 300 tons 3 x 10ⁿ = 300 Hence 3 x 10ⁿ = 3 x 10² Hence n= 2

Mark has a 25 ounce drink. He drinks 5 ounces. What percent of the drink does he have left?

valina [46]

Answer: $80\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved by the <u>Rule of Three</u>, which is a mathematical rule to find out an amount that is with another quantity given in the same relation as other two also known.

In this case, the 25 ounce drink represents the $100 \%$ . So, if Mark drinks 5 ounces, this means he has 20 ounces left and we have to find the percent this represents:

$25 oz$ ------- $100\%$

$20 oz$ -------- $?$

$?=\frac{(20 oz)(100\%)}{25 oz}$

$?=80\%$ This is the percent of the drink Mark has left

Yuson must complete 210 min of community service. She does 30 min each day. Which linear equation represents the number of minut

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

$y=-30x+210$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of days

y ----> the number of minutes Yuson has left

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-coordinate of the y-intercept (initial value)

In this problem we have

The slope is equal to

$m=-30\frac{min}{day}$ ----> is negative because is a decreasing function

$b=210\ min$ ----> initial value

substitute the values

$y=-30x+210$

Before the distribution of certain statistical software, every fourth compact disk (CD) is testedfor accuracy. The testing proce

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

P(T∩E) = 0.017

Step-by-step explanation:

Since every fourth CD is tested. Thus if T is the event that represents 4 disks being tested,

P(T) = 1/4 = 0.25

Let Fi represent event of failure rate. So from the question,

P(F1) = 0.01 ; P(F2) = 0.03 ; P(F3) =0.02 ; P(F4) = 0.01

Also Let F'i represent event of success rate. And we have;

P(F'1) = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99 ; P(F'2) = 1 - 0.03 = 0.97; P(F'3) = 1 - 0.02 = 0.98; P(F'4) = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99

Since all programs run independently, the probability that all programs will run successfully is;

P(All programs to run successfully) =

P(F'1) x P(F'2) x P(F'3) x P(F'4) =

0.99 x 0.97 x 0.98 x 0.97 = 0.932

Now, that all 4 programs failed will be = 1 - 0.932 = 0.068

Let E be denote that the CD fails the test. Thus P(E) = 0.068

Now, since testing and CD's defection are independent events, the probability that one CD was tested and failed will be =P(T∩E) = P(T) x P(E)= 0.25 x 0.068 = 0.017

Historically, in the early to middle 1900’s, households that had a telephone in their home were considered to earn an above aver

irinina [24]

The correct option is B.
From the information given in the question, we can see that only the rich in the society had telephone in their homes during the time of the said presidential election. Thus, the presidential candidate that was ahead in telephone polls was actually getting in touch with the rich only; he was not getting through to the larger part of the society, who are poor. Since both the poor and the rich are going to vote in the presidential election, it means that Dewey campaigned to only a subset of the society, that was why he was defeated during the election.
