Answer:
a) The population is 40,858 students and the sample is 100.
b) No
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The population would be the 40,858 members of the student body. Since we are only applying the questionnaire to 100 students, the sample would be 100.
b) 29% of the students answered "zero" to the question on how many days in the past week they consumed at least one alcoholic drink. This means that 29 out of 100 students gave this answer. However, this doesn't mean that 29% of the entire population of UW would give this response. Why is that? Because our sample is very small so it might not be representative of the whole population. Equally, the results from such a sample cannot be exactly the same results we would get from an entire population.
0.75 is 3/4 or 6/8, which is less than 7/8
By the Pythagorean theorem,
Answer:
n = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
2n - 8 = -2 (-3n + 12) + 8
2n - 8 = -(-6n + 24) + 8
2n - 8 = 6n - 24 + 8
2n - 8 = 6n - 16
-4n = -8
Divide each side by 4
n = 2
Given:
3 kids
72 is the product of their ages.
There is a youngest child.
This means that all three are of different ages. We need to factor 72 into 3 integers.
Let us use prime factorization:
72 ÷ 2 = 36
36 ÷ 2 = 18
18 ÷ 2 = 9
9 ÷ 3 = 3
Prime factors are: 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 OR 2³ x 3²
3 ages.
eldest = 3³ = 9
middle = 2² = 4
youngest = 2¹ = 2
2 x 4 = 8
8 x 9 = 72
