You are instructed to subtract 4 points from each score,square the resulting value,and find the sum of the squared numbers.How would this set of instructions be expressed in summation notation? A)ΣX - 4² B)(ΣX - 4)² C)Σ(X - 4)² D)ΣX² - 4

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The expression Σ(X - 4)^2² represents the sum of squared values after subtracting 4 from each X value. The (X - 4) term inside the summation represents the subtraction of 4 from each X value, and squaring this difference gives us the squared value to be added to the sum. Hence, option C Σ(X - 4)² is the correct summation notation for this set of instructions.
