Consider the following data and corresponding weights.
xi3.222.55Weight(wi)6328

a. Compute the weighted mean.
b. Compute the sample mean of the four data values without weighting. Note the difference
in the results provided by the two computations.

a) Weighted Mean = 3.014

b) Sample Mean = 24.1925

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with the following data and corresponding weights;

                          Weight ()            

        3.22                 63                     202.86  

        2.55                 28                         71.4          

                      = 91       = 274.26          

a) Weighted Mean is given by the formula;

                  Weighted Mean =      

                                               = = 3.014 .

b) Now, the four data values without weighting are;

                =  3.22, 2.55, 63, 28

  Sample Mean = = = 24.1925 .

We see that without weighting sample mean is higher than weighted mean because in sample mean data values there comes two higher extreme values because of which mean shifted towards them and is higher than weighted mean.

the correct answer is

c. 4

step-by-step explanation:

the given polynomial is

the degree of the polynomial is the highest exponent which is 4.

the -4 is called the leading coefficient.

this polynomial has only one term so it is a monomial.

the correct answer is option c.
