A study is done to determine the average salary for all Santa Clara County teachers. If we were to randomly pick 15 schools in Santa Clara County and average together the salaries of all teachers, would this be a good sampling technique or a bad sampling technique

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Good sampling technique

Step-by-step explanation:

In other to determine the mean value for a population, it may be necessary to make inference from the a small subset of the population, called the sample, if it is impossible, difficult or inefficient to get all population data. Hence, in other to select a subset of the population, then the sample must be selected at random, such that all elements of the population have equal chances of being selected and hence, be representative of the population. Since, the sampling technique adopted above is done at random, hence, it is a good sampling technique.

if cars A and B are traveling at the speed of 55km/hr and 75km/hr respectively. What is their average speed?​

Answers

Answer:

65 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

The average of numbers can be calculated by adding them up and dividing that by how many numbers there are.

Here, we have two numbers. Therefore, we first add them (55+75 = 130) and then divide by 2 because there are 2 numbers, so 130/2 = 65

Suppose you invest a certain amount of money in account that earns 3% annual interest. You also invest that same amount + $2000 that earns 4% annual interest. If the total interest from both accounts at the end of the year is $535, how much has been invested in each account?

Answers

First account: $6500
Second account: $8500

Set x is amount of money in first account
=> x + 2000 is money in second account.
X*3% + (x+2000)*4% = 535
=> x = (53500 - 8000) / 7
X = 45500 / 7 = 6500
=> account #1 = x = 6500
Acc #2 = x + 2000 = 6500 + 2000 = 8500

Find the length of arc AB

Answers

Step 1: Find the circumference of the circle

Formula for circumference: C = 2 * pi * r

C = 2 * pi * 27

C = 54pi

Step 2: Find the length of the desired arc

We are only looking for 20 degrees out of 360 degrees, therefore we can multiply our circumference by 20/360.

20/360 * 54pi = 3pi units

the amount of mil available per child in a day care centrr is given by the function m(x) =25/x, where x is the number of children and m is the quantity of available milk in liters. if 50 children are present on a day how much milk is available per child

Answers

Answer:

0.5 liters of milk are available per child.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of milk available per children:

The amount of milk, in liters, available for x children is given by:

[tex]m(x) = \frac{25}{x}[/tex]

50 children are present on a day

This means that [tex]x = 50[/tex]

How much milk is available per child?

This is m(50). So

[tex]m(50) = \frac{25}{50} = 0.5[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

The zeroes of f(x) = (x-7)(x+8) are 7 and -8.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to figure out what makes each of the equal to zero.

Step 1 : Make the 2 equations both equal 0.

x-7 = 0

x+8 = 0

Step 2: Solve for x

x-7 = 0

x=7

x+8 = 0

x=-8

So 7 and -8 are both zeroes of this function.

Answer:

x P(x)

0 0.4167

1 0.5

2 0.0833

3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The speedometers are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

In this question:

7 + 2 = 9 speedometers, which means that [tex]N = 9[/tex]

2 are not correctly calibrated, which means that [tex]k = 2[/tex]

3 are chosen, which means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]

Complete the probability distribution table.

Probability of each outcome.

So

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = h(0,9,3,2) = \frac{C_{2,0}*C_{7,3}}{C_{9,3}} = 0.4167[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = h(1,9,3,2) = \frac{C_{2,1}*C_{7,2}}{C_{9,3}} = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = h(2,9,3,2) = \frac{C_{2,2}*C_{7,1}}{C_{9,3}} = 0.0833[/tex]

Only 2 defective, so [tex]P(X = 3) = 0[/tex]

Probability distribution table:

A river is 212 mile long. What is the length of the river on a map, if the scale is 1 inch : 50 miles?

Answers

Answer:

4.24 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

1 inch / 50 miles = x / 212 miles      Cross multiply

1 inch * 212 miles = 50 miles * x      Divide by 50 miles

1 inch * 212 miles / 50 miles = x

x = 4.24 inches.

How much is 0.24 of an inch?

0.24 * 50 = 12

So 0.24 inches represents 12 miles.

rewrite 1/6 and 2/11 so they have a common denominator then use <, =, or > to order

Answers

Answer:

1/6 < 2/11

Step-by-step explanation:

1/6 = 2/12

2/11 >2/12

So that means 1/6 < 2/11

Answer:  1/6 < 2/11

This is the same as saying 11/66 < 12/66

===========================================================

Explanation:

1/6 is the same as 11/66 when multiplying top and bottom by 11.

2/11 is the same as 12/66 when multiplying top and bottom by 6.

The 6 and 11 multipliers are from the original denominators (just swapped).

We can see that 11/66 is smaller than 12/66, simply because 11 < 12, so that means 1/6 is smaller than 2/11

-----------------

Here's one way you could list out the steps

11 < 12

11/66 < 12/66

1/6 < 2/11

------------------

Here's another way to list out the steps. First assume that 1/6 and 2/11 are equal. Cross multiplication then leads to

1/6 = 2/11

1*11 = 6*2

11 = 12

Which is false. But we can fix this by replacing every equal sign with a less than sign

1/6 < 2/11

1*11 < 6*2

11 < 12

---------------------

Yet another way to see which is smaller is to use your calculator or long division to find the decimal form of each value

1/6 = 0.1667 approximately

2/11 = 0.1818 approximately

We see that 0.1667 is smaller than 0.1818, which must mean 1/6 is smaller than 2/11.

For each of the following, assume that the two samples are obtained from populations with the same mean, and calculate how much difference should be expected, on average, between the two sample means. Each sample has n =4 scores with s^2 = 68 for the first sample and s^2 = 76 for the second. (Note: Because the two samples are the same size, the pooled variance is equal to the average of the two sample variances).
a) 4.24.
b) 0.24.
c) 8.48.
d) 6.00.
Next, each sample has n=16 scores with s^2 = 68 for the first sample and s^2 = 76 for the second.
a) 0.12.
b) 2.12.
c) 4.24.
d) 3.00.

Answers

Answer:

d)6.00

d)3.00

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

n=4 scores

[tex]S^2_1=68[/tex]

[tex]S^2_2=76[/tex]

We have to find the  difference should be expected, on average, between the two sample means.

[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{\frac{S^2_1}{n_1}+\frac{S^2_2}{n_2}}[/tex]

[tex]n_1=n_2=4[/tex]

Using the formula

[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{\frac{68}{4}+\frac{76}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{\frac{68+76}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{36}=6[/tex]

Option d is correct.

Now, replace n by 16

[tex]n_1=n_2=16[/tex]

[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{\frac{68}{16}+\frac{76}{16}}[/tex]

[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{\frac{68+76}{16}}[/tex]

[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{9}=3[/tex]

Option d is correct.

Answers

Answer:

0.913716

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a normal distribution :

Mean, x = 1050

Standard deviation, σ = 375

The Zscore = (x - mean) / σ

Zscore = (675 - 1050) / 275

Zscore = - 1.364

The probability :

P(Z > - 1.364)

P(Z > - 1.364) = 1 - P(Z < - 1.364) = 1 - 0.086284

P(Z > - 1.364) = 0.913716

Answers

Answer:

her salary will increase by $ 145 for every week

Step-by-step explanation:

weekly raise = $ 145.

After completing the 1st week she will get $ (x+145).

Similarly after completing the 2nd week she will get

$ (x + 145) + $ 145.

= $ (x + 145 + 145)

= $ (x + 290)

So in this way end of every week her salary will increase by $ 145.
