c. g = 1.2
d. g = 2.8

Use this data in the problem below. follow the steps carefully. round to the nearest tenth. lot 3: week 1: 345 week 2: 340 week 3: 400 week 4: 325 step 1. jim enters the data and calculates the average or mean. step 2. jim calculates the deviation from the mean by subtracting the mean from each value. step 3. jim squares each deviation to remove negative signs. step 4. jim sums the squares of each deviation and divides by the count for the variance. step 5. jim takes the square root of the variance to find the standard deviation.

On the way home from visiting his family, vincent’s plane cruised at an altitude of 3.2 × 10^4 feet. he had heard that a man named felix baumgartner skydived from an altitude of 1.28 × 10^5 feet. vincent wants to know how much higher felix went on his skydiving trip. question 1 you have already seen how adding numbers works in either scientific notation or standard notation. but can you subtract numbers in scientific notation and get the same results as subtracting in standard notation? to find out, first solve vincent’s problem in standard notation. part a write the cruising altitude of vincent’s plane in standard notation.
