Calculate the range, population variance, and population standard deviation for the following data set. If necessary, round to one more decimal place than the largest number of decimal places given in the data. 16,12,17,8,15,15,10,11,19,18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Solving (a): Range

This is calculated as:

Where:

So:

Solving (b): The population variance

First, calculate the population mean using:

So:

So, the population variance is:

--- approximated

Solving (c): The population standard deviation.

This is calculated as:

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
