Answer:
a) 910
b) 828100
c) 144320
Step-by-step explanation:
a. ∑y
This is the sum of all values of y. So
[tex]\sum y = 216 + 184 + 35 + 92 + 142 + 175 + 9 + 57 = 910[/tex]
b. (∑y)^2
This is the square of the sum, so the square of 910, that we found in the previous item.
910² = 828100
c. ∑y^2
This is the sum of the squares of each amount spent. So
[tex]\sum y^2 = 216^2 + 184^2 + 35^2 + 92^2 + 142^2 + 175^2 + 9^2 + 57^2 = 144320[/tex]
