Here are the noon temperatures (in degrees Celsius) in a particular Canadian city on Thanksgiving Day for the 10 years from 2002 through 2011: 0, 3, 6, 8, 2, 9, 7, 6, 4, 5. Describe the typical temperature and the amount of variation to a person who has never had a course in statistics. Give three ways of describing the representative temperature and two ways of describing its variation, explaining the differences and how you figured each. (You will learn more if you try to write your own answer first, before reading our answer at the back of the book.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) Three ways of describing the representative or typical temperatures are the mean, median, and mode.

The mean = 5.  This is the average temperature.  It is calculated by adding up the varying temperatures each year and dividing by 10.

Median = 5.5.  This is the middle value in the temperature table.  There are two middle numbers (5 and 6) in the dataset.  They are added and divided by two.

Mode = 6.  This is the value that occurs more than other values in the dataset.  The value 6 occurred twice more than other values.

b) The two ways of describing the variation of temperatures are the variance and the standard deviation.

Variance = 7. This is a measure of how spread out a data set is. It is calculated as the average squared deviation of each number from the mean of a dataset.

Standard Deviation = 2.65.  The standard deviation measures the dispersion of a dataset relative to its mean and is calculated as the square root of the variance.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Noon Temperatures (in degrees Celsius) in a particular Canadian City on Thanksgiving Day:

Year    Degree  Difference     Squared

           Celsius                       Difference

2002        0          -5                     25

2003        3          -2                       4

2004        6           1                        1

2005        8           3                       9

2006        2          -3                       9

2007        9           4                      16

2008        7           2                       4

2009        6           1                        1

2010         4          -1                        1

2011          5          0                       0

Sum       50                                  70

Mean =    5 (50/10)

Variance =                                    7 (70/10)

Standard Deviation = 2.65 (Square root of variance)          

Median =  0, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9 (the values are arranged numerically.)

= (5 + 6)/2 = 5.5

Mode = 6 (occurred twice more than other values)

Tanya purchases gifts for two friends The first is a purse for $19.99, and the second is pair of shoot. Her total is $45.67 before tax, How much did she spend on the shoes?​

Answers

Answer:

$25.68​

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of purse = $19.99

Cost of shoe pairs = x

Total cost = $45.67

Total cost = cost of purse + cost of shoe pairs

$45.67 = $19.99 + x

x = $45.67 - $19.99

x = $25.68

Hence, cost of shoe pair = $25.68

Graph a line with a slope of 3 that goes through the point (1, 3).

X intercept and y intercept 20 POINTS

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. We are given a slope of three so

y=3x+b, using point (1,3) we can solve for b

3=3(1)+b, 3-3=0 so b=0 then our line is

y=3x

The x intercept is when y=0 and this occurs when x=0 or the point (0,0)

The y intercept occurs when x=0, this occurs when y=0 or the point (0,0)

According to the model, which statements are correct? Select all that apply.

Answers

Answer:

A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of the equation is 15, that represents calories per gram of carbohydrate increased.

What is linear equation?

A linear equation is an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always 1. It is also known as a one-degree equation.

Given equation,

y = 15x - 25

x is number of grams of carbohydrates in bread

y is number of calories in bread

Comparing it with y = mx + c

slope m = 15

y - intercept c = -25

Slope represents calories per gram of carbohydrate increased.

Hence, 15 is slope of the equation, which represents calories per gram of carbohydrate increased.

#1.At the beginning of the season, McDonald had to remove 5 orange trees from his farm. Each of the remaining trees produced 210 oranges for a total harvest of 41790 oranges.

Answers

The equation that represents the initial amount of range trees on MacDonald farm is 41790 = 210t - 1050.

The initial amount of trees is 204

How to form an equation ?

The equation that represents the initial amount of range trees on MacDonald farm can be calculated as follows;

Therefore,

number of trees presently = t - 5

Therefore,

41790 = 210(t - 5)

41790 = 210t - 1050

41790 + 1050 = 210t

42840 = 210t

t = 42840 / 210

t = 204

Therefore, the initial amount of trees is 204 .
