To estimate the mean number of text messages sent by cell-phone users, a researcher chooses a location on a college campus in the city and surveys the first 50 people who walk past. These subjects are asked how many text messages they have sent in the past 24 hours. Is it likely that bias will be present in the sample?

Possible Answers:
A:Because this is a convenience sample, it is likely that the sample results will be unbiased.

B:Because this is a convenience sample of college students, it is likely that bias is present and that the results will overestimate the mean number of text messages sent.

C:Because this is a convenience sample of college students, it is likely that bias is present and that the results will underestimate the mean number of text messages sent.

D:Because this is a voluntary response sample of college students, it is likely that bias is present and that the results will overestimate the mean number of text messages sent.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{x=-12}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve for this proportion, it’s important to note that this is basically just an equation. Like any other, our goal is to isolate x on one side.

Since we have two fractions, we can multiply both sides by both the denominators (x-3 and x-9). Since one will cancel out the other, we can just multiply both sides by the opposite denominator.

[tex]5(x-9)=7(x-3)\\\\5x-45=7x-21[/tex]

Now we can solve for x.

Subtract 5x from both sides:

[tex]-45=2x-21[/tex]

Add 21 to both sides:

[tex]-24=2x[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2:

[tex]x = -12[/tex]

Hope this helped!

Answer:

[tex]x= -12[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

[tex]\frac{5}{x-3} =\frac{7}{x-9}[/tex]

Step 2: Solve for x

Cross multiply: [tex]5(x-9)=7(x-3)[/tex]Distribute: [tex]5x-45=7x-21[/tex]Subtract 5x on both sides: [tex]-45=2x-21[/tex]Add 21 to both sides: [tex]-24=2x[/tex]Divide both sides by 2: [tex]-12=x[/tex]Rewrite: [tex]x= -12[/tex]

Step 3: Check

Plug in x to verify it's a solution.

[tex]\frac{5}{-12-3} =\frac{7}{-12-9}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}{-15} =\frac{7}{-21}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-1}{3} =\frac{-1}{3}[/tex]

What is the common ratio between successive terms in the sequence 1.5, 1.2, 0.96, 0.768

Answers

Answer:

To determine the common ratio of a geometric sequence. You just need to divide any two consecutive terms on it. You can see below that all of them have the same quotient.

1.2 / 1.5 = 0.8

0.96 / 1.2 = 0.8

0.768 / 0.96 = 0.8

.

Decimal form = 0.8

Fraction form = 4/5

.

Check:

1.5 x 0.8 = 1.2

1.5 x 4/5 = 6/5 = 1 1/5 = 1.2

Therefore, the common ratio between successive terms in the sequence? 1.5, 1.2, 0.96, 0.768 is 0.8 or 4/5.

Answer:

It Is 0.8

in a salad with vegetables containing 50 calories dressing is added at 100 calories per ounce. The total number of calories can be represented by the equation f(x) = 100x +50. What is the reasonable range for the situation?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the reasonable range of the situation, we will find the minimum value and maximum value of the calories that can be dressed.

The minimum occur at when x = 0

f(0) = 100(0) +50.

f(0) = 50

Hence the minimum value of the calorie is 50.

The maximum value occur at f'(x)

f'(x)  = 100

Hence the maximum value of the calorie is 100

Hence, the reasonable range for the situation is 50 ≤ x ≤ 100

Lionel walks 3/5 mile in 1/3 of a day. Cristiano walks 5/8 mile in 2/6 of a day.
Who walked farther, Cristiano or Lionel? How much did each boy walk in 1 day?

Answers

Answer:

            Cristiano walked farther In 1 day:   Lionel walked  1.8 mile                  Cristiano walked 1.875 mile

Step-by-step explanation:

2/6 = 1/3  so we just need to know what is more 3/5 or 5/8

3/5 = (3•8)/(5•8) = 24/40

5/8 = (5•5)/(8•5) = 25/40

25 > 24  so 5/8 > 3/5

so Cristiano walked farther

They walk for 1/3 of a day so in a whole day they walk three times the distance

3/5 • 3 = 9/5 = 1 4/5 = 1.8 mile

5/8 • 3 = 15/8 = 1 7/8 = 1.875 mile

Use the diagram and the given angle measure to find the other three measures.

Answers

Answer:

m∠2 = 37°

m∠3 = 143°

m∠4 = 37°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Two arms of the scissors represent he two lines intersecting each other at a point forming pairs of vertical angles ∠1, ∠3 and ∠2, ∠4.

By the definition of vertical angles,

∠1 ≅ ∠3 and ∠2 ≅ ∠4

Since, m∠1 = 143°

Therefore, m∠1 = m∠3 = 143°

m∠1 + m∠2 = 180° [Since linear pair of angles are supplementary]

143° + m∠2 = 180°

m∠2 = 180° - 143° = 37°

Therefore, m∠2 = m∠4 = 37°

Total cost to transport 19 tons of sugar: sl
х

Answers

Answer:

$10,825

Step-by-step explanation:

let C: represent the total cost which is what we are looking for

let a: represent the cost of renting a truck

let b: represent the cost of each tone of sugar

let s: represent the quantity of the tons of sugar

From the question the additional cost of the sugar depends on the tons

so we multiply the tons by $175

so our equation will be

C = a + bs

in this case our value of b is $175

so we have

C = a + $175s

C = $7500 + ($175 * 19)

C = $7500 + $3325

C = $10,825

Answers

Answer:

(p+3)(p-7) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given p=x^2+6p and (x^2+6)^2-21=4x^2+24

We are to substitute the the p = x²+6 into the expression as shown;

The expression (x^2+6)^2-21=4x^2+24 will become

(x²+6)²-21 = 4(x²+6)

On substituting p, the expression becomes;

p²-21 = 4p

Subtract 4p from both sides

p²-21-4p = 4p-4p

p²-4p-21 = 0

p²-7p+3p-21 = 0

p(p-7)+3(p-7) = 0

(p+3)(p-7) = 0

Hence the expression in terms of p is (p+3)(p-7) = 0
