The book cost (in dollars) for one semester's books are given below for a sample of five college students. Calculate the sample variance of the book costs. 200, 130, 400, 500, 345 Group of answer choices

17,960

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data, book cost (in dollars) = 200, 130, 400, 500, 345.

First of all, we will find the mean of the given data.

Or

Mean = (200+130+400+500+345)/5

Mean = 1575/5 = 315.

Second step is to subtract the mean from each book cost;

(200-315) + (130-315) + (400-315) + (500-315) + (345-315)

(-115)+(-185)+85+185+30

Next you square the above deviation;

Then, divide the above by the average which is 5 in this case.

Hence, the value of the variance is 17,960.

connie < felicia < stew

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4

felicia:

260 words per minute

200< 260 < 265

connie < felicia < stew
