A political campaign wants to estimate the number of adult residents who voted in the last city election. Answer the following.

(a) Which of the following surveys probably would best represent the entire adult population of the city? 25 homeowners are randomly selected; 14 voted in the last election. 25 adult residents are randomly selected from the city; 10 voted in the last election. 25 senior residents are randomly selected; 11 voted in the last election. (b) There are 20,600 adults who live in the city. Using your answer from part (a), estimate the number of adults who voted in the last city election.

Using sampling concepts, it is found that:

a) The best method is: 25 adult residents are randomly selected from the city;

b) The estimate is that 11,536 adults voted in the election.

<h3>What is sampling?</h3>

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, the sample will be representative if all adults, no matter if senior or not, homeowners or not are represented, hence the best method is:

25 adult residents are randomly selected from the city;

The estimate of the number of adults that voted is:

14/25 x 20,600 = 11,536.

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Q1

cos 59° = x/16

x = 16 cos 59°

x = 8.24

Q2

BC is given 23 mi

Maybe AB is needed

AB = √34² + 23² = 41 (rounded)

Q3

BC² = AB² - AC²

BC = √(37² - 12²) = 35

Q4

Let the angle is x

cos x = 19/20

x = arccos (19/20)

x = 18.2° (rounded)

Q5

See attached

Added point D and segments AD and DC to help with calculation

BC² = BD² + DC² = (AB + AD)² + DC²

Find the length of added red segments

AD = AC cos 65° = 14 cos 65° = 5.9

DC = AC sin 65° = 14 sin 65° = 12.7

Now we can find the value of BC

BC² = (19 + 5.9)² + 12.7²

BC = √781.3

BC = 28.0 yd

All calculations are rounded
