An insurance firm wants to estimate the percentage of senior citizens in a small town with approximately 2,534 residents. it asks a group of 85 randomly selected people in the town about their age.

select the statement that is true.

a. the sample is 2,534 people. the population is 85 people.

b. the sample is 85 people. the population is 2,449 people.

c. the sample is 85 people. the population is 2,534 people.

d. none of the answer choices are true.

Answers

Answer 1

Using sampling concepts, it is found that the correct statement is given by:

c. the sample is 85 people. the population is 2,534 people.

What is sampling?

It is a common statistics practice, when we want to study something from a population, we find a sample of this population, which is a group containing elements of a population. A sample has to be representative of the population, that is, it has to involve all segments of the population.

In this problem, a group of 85 people, which is the sample, is taken from the entire population of 2,534 people, hence option c is correct.

Answer:

height: 8 mslant height: 5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameter of interest can be found by putting the given values into the appropriate volume or area formula for a pyramid, then solving for the unknown. The relevant formulas are ...

  V = 1/3s²h . . . . . s is the base length; h is the height

  A = s(s +2h) . . . . s is the base length; h is the slant height

__

height given volume

Using the given values for the volume and the length of the base, the formula becomes ...

  V = 1/3s²h

  96 m³ = 1/3(6 m)²h . . . . . . . . . . use the given values for V, s

  (96 m³)/(12 m²) = 8 m = h . . . . . divide by the coefficient of h

The height of the pyramid is 8 meters.

__

slant height given area

Using the given values for area and the length of the base, the formula becomes ...

  A = s(s +2h)

  47.25 in² = (3.5 in)(3.5 in + 2h) . . . . use the given values for A, s

  13.5 in = 3.5 in + 2h . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3.5 in

  10 in = 2h . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3.5 in

  5 in = h . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The slant height of the pyramid is 5 inches.

x * 0.5^t
x being the start amount
t being time
5 days with periods of 2.5 days, 5 / 2.5 = 2

600 * 0.5^2

150 so C

Hi, I need help with arithmetic sequence and I don't really know what to do.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

choice 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequences arare linear. The common difference is the slope. The points given are (3,10) And (5,26).

The slope is the change of y (26-10=16) over the change of x (5-3=2); this is 16/2=8.

The equation of line in slope-intercept form whose slope is given as 8 is y=8x+b.

We may plug in a point to solve for b.

Let's plug in (3,10):

10=8(3)+b

10=24+b

10-24=b

-14=b

So the equation we are lookinlooking for is y=8x-14 which is choice 2.

A baseball team is hosting a dance as a fundraiser. the cost of 1 individual ticket is $7. the cost of 1 group ticket is $16. the baseball team sold 36 more individual tickets than group tickets. the fundraiser raised $574 as a result of all ticket sales. if x is the number of the individual tickets that were sold and y is the number of group tickets that were sold, how many individual tickets were sold (what is the value of x)?

Answers

Word Problem

To form equations from word problems, we can do the following:

Identify variablesFind key informationIdentify word equations and translate into numerical equationsSolve

Solving the Question

We're given:

Let x be the number of individual tickets that were soldLet y be the number of group tickets soldCost of 1x = 7 dollarsCost of 1y = 16 dollarsBaseball team: 36 more x than y
⇒ x = 36 + yFundraiser raised 574 dollars in total
⇒ 7x + 16y = 574 dollars

Question: How many individual tickets were sold? (What is the value of x?)

Here are all the equations we have created:

x = 36 + y7x + 16y = 574

We can solve for the value of x using systems of equations.

First, isolate y in the first equation:

[tex]x = 36 + y\\y=x-36[/tex]

Now, plug this into the second equation:

[tex]7x + 16y = 574\\7x + 16(x-36)= 574\\7x+ 16x-586= 574\\23x=1150\\\\x=\dfrac{1150}{23}\\\\x=50[/tex]

Therefore, x is equal to 50.

What is the volume of a sphere with a diameter of 32.5 m, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic meter?

Answers

Answer:

17,964.9 cubic meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

The formula for finding the area of a sphere is:

[tex]V=(4/3)\pi r^3[/tex]

Where V is volume, and r is radius

The question already tells us that the diameter is 32.5m

*Remember, the diameter isn't the radius. It is the radius times two*

Now, we have to divide 32.5 by 2 to get the radius

32.5/2 is 16.25

Now we can plug this into the formula

16.25 cubed is 4291 after being rounded to the nearest tenth

Now we multiply 4291 by 3.14 (pi)

4291 x 3.14 is 13473.7 after being rounded to the nearest tenth

Now multiply 13473.7 by 4/3 and then you will get the volume to the sphere

13473.7 x 4/3 is 17964.93333333...

Since it is asking us to round to the nearest tenth of a cubic meter;

The volume of the sphere will be 17,964.9 cubic meters

What is the volume of a sphere with a diameter of 32.5 m, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic meter (m³)?

[tex]\dashrightarrow\large\textsf{\textbf{\underline{Answer and how to solve:-}}}[/tex]

We are asked to find the volume of a sphere, which we can find using the following formula:-

[tex]\bold{V=\dfrac{4}{3} \pi r^3}[/tex]

Where:-

V=volumeπ=pi (3.14…)r=radius

Provided information:-

diameter (d)=32.5 m

What we need in order to find the volume:-

radius

What we need in order to find the radius:-

Since the radius is exactly one-half of the diameter, we divide the diameter by 2 in order to find the radius:-

[tex]\bold{r=d\div2}[/tex]

Replace d with 32.5:-

[tex]\bold{r=32.5\div2}[/tex]

Therefore, the sphere's radius is as follows:-

[tex]\bold{r=16.25}[/tex] m

[tex]\rule{300}{1}[/tex]

Now, let's find the sphere's volume, which, as I mentioned earlier, can be found with the help of this formula:-

[tex]\bold{V=\dfrac{4}{3} \pi r^3}[/tex]

Replace r with 16.25:-

[tex]\bold{V=\dfrac{4}{3} \pi (4291)}[/tex]           Next, we replace π with 3.14:-

[tex]\bold{V=\dfrac{4}{3} \times3.14\times4291}[/tex]

On simplification,

[tex]\bold{V=\dfrac{4}{3} \times13,473.74}[/tex]

On further simplification,

[tex]\bold{V=17,964.9\:m^3}\Longleftarrow\sf{volume\:of\:the\:sphere}[/tex]

Describe the transformations from the parent function, and define the function of the following graph.

Answers

Answer:   Vertical stretch by a factor of 5.8 , reflection across x-axis ⇒ answer B

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the vertical and horizontal stretch with reflection

- A vertical stretching is the stretching of the graph away from the

x-axis

- If k > 1, the graph of y = k•f(x) is the graph of f(x) vertically stretched

by multiplying each of its y-coordinates by k.

- If k should be negative, the vertical stretch is followed by a reflection

across the x-axis  

- A horizontal stretching is the stretching of the graph away from

the y-axis

- If 0 < k < 1 (a fraction), the graph of y = f(k•x) is f(x) horizontally

stretched by dividing each of its x-coordinates by k.

- If k should be negative, the horizontal stretch or shrink is followed

by a reflection in the y-axis

* Lets solve the problem

∵ G(x) = sin x

∵ F(x) = -5.8 sin x

∴ F(x) = -5.8 G(x)

- From the rule above

∴ G(x) is stretched vertically by scale factor -5.8

∵ The scale factor is negative

∴ The vertical stretch is followed by a reflection across the x-axis  

* The transformation is:

 Vertical stretch by a factor of 5.8 , reflection across x-axis
