Geckos are lizards with specialized toe pads that enable them to easily climb all sorts of surfaces. a research team examined the adhesive properties of 7 tokay geckos. below are their toe-pad areas (in square centimeters, cm2). 5.6 4.9 6.0 5.1 5.5 5.1 7.5 what is the value of the sample variance? cm2 answer

incomplete question. how do you expect anyone to you when you do not post the question in its entirety?

i graphed to on desmos.

the solution of the equation is 2.23 ⇒ answer b

step-by-step explanation:

* lets revise the meaning of exponential function

- the form of the exponential function is y = ab^x, where a ≠ 0, b > 0 ,  

  b ≠ 1, and x is any real number

- it has a constant base b

- it has a variable exponent x

- to solve an exponential equation, take the log or ln of both sides,  

  and solve for the variable

* lets solve the problem

∵

- the base is 7 and the exponent is x

- insert ㏑ in both sides

∴

- use the rule

∴ x ㏑(7) = ㏑(77)

- to find x divide both sides by ㏑(7)

∴

* the solution of the equation is 2.23 to the nearest 2 decimal places

the answer is 11.2 (i know i’m late)
