Noah says that to find 20% of a number he divides the number by 5. For example, 20% of 60 is 12, because 60÷5=12. Does Noah’s me

Answer: B has greater spread than A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Set A: {38, 12, 23, 48, 55, 16, 18}

Range of A = Highest - Lowest

Range of A =  55  -  12

Range of A = 43

Set B:{44, 13, 24, 12, 56}

Range of B = Highest - Lowest

Range of B =    56      -     12

Range of B =       44

Since Range of B is more than range of A.

Hence, B has greater spread than A.

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

A) P(t)=77.2\cdot e^{0.016t}

B) 89.157 million tons.

C) In year 2017.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that world poultry production was 77.2 million tons in the year 2004 and increasing at a continuous rate of 1.6% per year.

A). We know that a continuous growth function is in form y=a\cdot e^{kx}, where,

a = Initial value,

k = Growth rate in decimal form.

1.6\%=\frac{1.6}{100}=0.016

Upon substituting our given values, we will get:

P(t)=77.2\cdot e^{0.016t}

Therefore, our required function would be P(t)=77.2\cdot e^{0.016t}, where, P represents world poultry production, in million tons, as a function of the number of years, t, since 2004.

B) To find the world poultry production in the year 2013, we will substitute t=2013-2004=9 in above formula as:

P(9)=77.2\cdot e^{0.016(9)}

P(9)=77.2\cdot e^{0.144}

P(9)=77.2\cdot 1.1548841085249135

P(9)=89.1570531781\approx 89.157

Therefore, the world poultry production in the year 2013 would be 89.157 million tons.

C) To find the number of years it will take for world poultry production to be over 95 million tons, we will equate our function with 95 as:

95=77.2\cdot e^{0.016t}

Divide both sides by 77.2:

1.2305699481865285=e^{0.016t}

Take natural log of both sides:

\text{ln}(1.2305699481865285)=\text{ln}(e^{0.016t})

\text{ln}(1.2305699481865285)=0.016t\text{ln}(e)

0.20747743456981035=0.016t*1

Divide both sides by 0.016:

t=12.9673396606

t\approx 13

Therefore, 13 years after in 2017 world poultry production goes over 95 million tons.

According to a Los Angeles Times study of more than 1 million medical dispatches from 2007 to 2012, the 911 response time for me
Reil [10]

Answer:

a) \bar X=10.65

Median =\frac{10.7+10.7}{2}=10.7

Mode= 10.7

b) Range = 11.8-8.3=3.5

s= 0.948

c)IQR = Q_3 -Q_1 = 11.05-10.55=0.5

And we can find the usual limits with:

Lower = Q_1 -1.5 IQR = 10.55 -1.5*0.5=9.8

Upperer = Q_3 +1.5 IQR = 10.55 +1.5*0.5=11.3

And since 8.3 <9.8 we can consider this value too low or as an outlier for this case.

d) The mean for this case was 10.65 and the usual values are between 9.8 and 11.3, so as we can see all are above the specified value of 6 minutes, and we can conclude that the times are not satisfying the quality standards for this case.

And they should be considered apply some strategies to reduce the response time, adding more stations around points selected at the city could be useful in order to reduce the response time.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following data:

11.8 10.3 10.7 10.6 11.5 8.3 10.5 10.9 10.7 11.2

Part a

We can calculate the sample mean with the following formula:

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}

And if we replace we got: \bar X=10.65

For the median we need to sort the values on increasing order and we have:

8.3 10.3 10.5 10.6 10.7 10.7 10.9 11.2 11.5 11.8

Since n =10 we can calculate the median as the average between the 5th and 6th position of the dataset ordered and we got:

Median =\frac{10.7+10.7}{2}=10.7

The mode would be the most repeated value on this case:

Mode= 10.7

Part b

The range is defined as Range =Max-Min and if we replace we got:

Range = 11.8-8.3=3.5

We can calculate the standard deviation with the following formula:

s= sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}

And if we replace we got:

s= 0.948

Part c

For this case we can use the IQR method in order to determine if 8.3 is an outlier or not.

We can calculate the first quartile with these values: 8.3 10.3 10.5 10.6 10.7 10.7 and Q_1= \frac{10.6+10.7}{2}=10.55

And for the Q3 we can use: 10.7 10.7 10.9 11.2 11.5 11.8 and we got Q_3 = \frac{10.9+11.2}{2}=11.05

Then we can find the IQR like this:

IQR = Q_3 -Q_1 = 11.05-10.55=0.5

And we can find the usual limits with:

Lower = Q_1 -1.5 IQR = 10.55 -1.5*0.5=9.8

Upperer = Q_3 +1.5 IQR = 10.55 +1.5*0.5=11.3

And since 8.3 <9.8 we can consider this value too low or as an outlier for this case.

Part d

The mean for this case was 10.65 and the usual values are between 9.8 and 11.3, so as we can see all are above the specified value of 6 minutes, and we can conclude that the times are not satisfying the quality standards for this case.

And they should be considered apply some strategies to reduce the response time, adding more stations around points selected at the city could be useful in order to reduce the response time.

svp [43]

Answer:

a) 1+2+3+4+...+396+397+398+399=79800

b) 1+2+3+4+...+546+547+548+549=150975

c) 2+4+6+8+...+72+74+76+78=1560

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a summation formula for the first n natural numbers:

1+2+3+...+(n-2)+(n-1)+n=\frac{n(n+1)}{2}

We use the formula, we get

a) 1+2+3+4+...+396+397+398+399=\frac{399·(399+1)}{2}=\frac{399· 400}{2}=399· 200=79800

b) 1+2+3+4+...+546+547+548+549=\frac{549·(549+1)}{2}=\frac{549· 550}{2}=549· 275=150975

c)2+4+6+8+...+72+74+76+78=S / ( :2)

1+2+3+4+...+36+37+38+39=S/2

\frac{39·(39+1)}{2}=S/2

\frac{39·40}{2}=S/2

39·40=S

1560=S

Therefore, we get

2+4+6+8+...+72+74+76+78=1560
