Answer:

The standard deviation of the number of rushing yards for the running backs that season is 350.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The mean number of rushing yards for the running backs that season is 790 yards. One running back had 1,637 rushing yards for the season, which is 2.42 standard deviations above the mean number of rushing yards.

Here it is given that mean is 790 and 1637 is 2.42 standard deviations above the mean.

Use the formula: z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Here z is 2.42 and μ is 790, substitute the respective values as shown.

2.42=\frac{1637-790}{\sigma}

\sigma=\frac{847}{2.42}

\sigma=350

Hence, the standard deviation of the number of rushing yards for the running backs that season is 350.

➷ a/sinA = c/sinC

Substitute in the values:

37/sin(42) = c/sin(41.5)

Multiply both sides by sin(41.5)

37/sin(42) x sin(41.5) = c

Solve:

c = 36.63999457

The correct answer would be C. 36.64

Sofia is working two summer jobs, making $12 per hour babysitting and making $8 per hour clearing tables. In a given week, she c
Mamont248 [21]

The possible values for the number of whole hours clearing tables that she must work to meet her requirements is 2, 3 hours

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Amount earned in babysitting = $ 12 per hour

Amount earned in clearing tables = $ 8 per hour

In a given week, she can work a maximum of 17 total hours and must earn a minimum of $180

Sofia worked 14 hours babysitting

Therefore,

Amount earned at babysitting = 14 x 12 = 168

Thus, Sofia earned $ 168 at babysitting

Sofia must earn a minimum of $ 180

Remaining amount to be earned = 180 - 168 = 12

Thus, Sofia must earn $ 12 from clearing tables

Amount earned in clearing tables = $ 8 per hour

So, she must work for atleast 1.5 hours to get $ 12 from clearing tables

She can work a maximum of 17 total hours and Sofia worked 14 hours babysitting

Remaining is 17 - 14 = 3 hours

Thus possible values for the number of whole hours clearing tables that she must work to meet her requirements is 2 hours or 3 hours
