46. Mean of n observations is š. If each of these
observations is increased by 1, 2, 3, 4...n, respec-
tively, then what will be their mean?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:     S+0.5(n+1)

==============================================================

Explanation:

Consider the set

[tex]\left\{x_1,x_2,x_3,\ldots,x_n\right\}\\\\[/tex]

which has n items in it. We don't know anything about any individual item, but what we do know is that the mean is S.

So,

[tex]\text{mean} = \frac{\text{sum of values}}{\text{number of values}}\\\\\text{mean} = \frac{x_1+x_2+x_3+\ldots+x_n}{n}\\\\S = \frac{x_1+x_2+x_3+\ldots+x_n}{n}\\\\nS = x_1+x_2+x_3+\ldots+x_n\\\\x_1+x_2+x_3+\ldots+x_n = nS\\\\[/tex]

In short, the sum of the values [tex]\left\{x_1,x_2,x_3,\ldots,x_n\right\}\\\\[/tex] is exactly nS, where S is the mean of the same set.

------------------------

Next, we add 1 to [tex]x_1[/tex], add 2 onto [tex]x_2[/tex], etc to form this new set

[tex]\left\{x_1+1,x_2+2,x_3+3,\ldots,x_n+n\right\}\\\\[/tex]

Let's find the mean like so

[tex]\text{mean} = \frac{\text{sum of values}}{\text{number of values}}\\\\\text{mean} = \frac{(x_1+1)+(x_2+2)+(x_3+3)+\ldots+(x_n+n)}{n}\\\\\text{mean} = \frac{\left(x_1+x_2+x_3+\ldots+x_n\right)+\left(1+2+3+\ldots n\right)}{n}\\\\\text{mean} = \frac{nS+0.5n(n+1)}{n}\\\\\text{mean} = \frac{n(S+0.5(n+1))}{n}\\\\\text{mean} = S+0.5(n+1)\\\\[/tex]

which is why S+0.5(n+1) is the answer

------------------------

Let's look at a concrete example.

Consider the set {1,7,10} which has n = 3 items in it.

Its mean is,

S = (1+7+10)/3 = 18/3 = 6

Now increase the items in {1,7,10} by adding on the values {1,2,3} to each element in the order shown

1+1 = 2

7+2 = 9

10+3 = 13

So {1,7,10} becomes {2,9,13}

The mean of the new set {2,9,13} is...

mean = (2+9+13)/3 = 24/3 = 8

Notice how,

newMean = S + 0.5(n+1)

newMean = 6 + 0.5(3+1)

newMean = 8

which helps us see how the formula works and partially confirm the answer. While this example isn't definitive proof, it's still handy to go over. I recommend forming other sets to check to see that this formula works. Not only do I recommend trying different values, but also a different number of values as well (i.e. increase n to some larger integer).

At 12 noon if the temperature is 38°C and if it decreases at the rate of 2°C per hour, then what would be the temperature at 5pm?​

Answers

Answer:

38-2(5) = 28

So the temperature would be 28 degrees celsius

Answer: Teperature at 5PM will be 28°C

Ok so at 12 its 38°C

And it dcreases at 2°C an hour, we need to find the teperature at 5 o clock.

The number of hours between 12 and 5 mutiplied by 2 will give us the trail in temperature and then subtracting the trail i temperature witht the temperature a 12 will give us the teperature at 5 o clock.

SO,

hours between 12 PM and 5 PM is 5 hours

As, the temperature decreases at a uniform rate of 2°c per hour

⇒5×2°C

⇒10°C

Now the temperature at 5 PM will be 38°C-10°C=28°C

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Amanda's unit rate would be

s=50m

while Mary's is

s=60m

60-50 is 10, meaning the answer would be D.

Mary saves $10 more than Amanda every month.

Hope this helps! :)

Hi there!

We can find an equation that models Amanda's savings using the equation:

y = km, where:

k = rise / run (Amount/months)

Plug in a set of values from the table:

k = 100/2 = 50

y = 50m

We know that Mary saves y = 60m dollars a month, so we can determine the correct comparison by plugging in a value of 1 month into both equations:

Amanda:

y = 50(1) = $50

Mary:

y = 60(1) = $60

The difference between Mary's and Amanda's savings is $60 - $50 = $10, so each month, Mary saves $10 more than Amanda.

The correct answer is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

P.S.(from k12)

The slope of the line is 2/3.

Here,

Graph of a line on coordinate plane. Axes are labeled x and y.

Three points are with ordered pairs (2, 3), (5, 5), and (8, 7) and the line passes through these three points.

We have to find the slope of the line.

What is the slope of the line?

Let two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are on the line, then slope of the line is calculated as;

[tex]m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

Now,

Three points are passes through the line are (2, 3), (5, 5), and (8, 7).

To find the slope, Let any two point from three given points.

Let (2, 3) and (5, 5) on the line.

Hence, Slope is calculated as,

⇒ [tex]m = \frac{5-3}{5-2} = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Therefore, The slope of the line is 2/3.
