Answer:

Cluster sampling

Step-by-step explanation:

Cluster sampling is almost always more economical or more practical than stratified sampling or simple random sampling as it reduces costs by increasing sampling efficiency. Due to the fact that she has limited resources, this method is better to observe clusters of units in a population than randomly selected distributed in the local nature preserve and this method is more economical and quick.

Answer:

c. Cluster sampling

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking into account that the exercise researcher is looking with limited resources to study a population that is divided, her best option is cluster sampling, which is a method applicable to this type of population, we could select in each group randomly her sample, the observational study is discarded because she does not have much availability of time or resources, nor would the stratified study be useful because she should select subgroups and create them to take samples and this would take more time and resources and sampling systematic is not adequate because it must have all the individuals and after having the list select the sample, but as we know, it is a process that will study the number of individuals so this option is not feasible.

Taking the square root of which of the following expressions gives the length of the line segment shown?
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

  4^2 + (-7)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The square of the distance is given by the distance formula as ...

  d^2 = (x2 -x1)^2 + (y2 -y1)^2 = (3 -(-1))^2 + (-5-2)^2

  = 4^2 +(-7)^2 . . . . . matches the second choice (sort of)

_____

<em>Comment on notation</em>

Clearly, you understand the use of the caret (^) to signify exponentiation. The number 42 is very different from the value of 4^2 = 16. A caret is required.

Solve equation using SQAURE ROOTS, show work. Round to the nearest hundredth if needed
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

x=8, x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Add 4 to both sides</u>

(x-6)^2=4

<u>Square root</u>

<u />(x-6)= \sqrt{4}

x - 6 = ±2

x = 8

OR x = 4

So, x=8 or x=4

(05.02 MC)
Elanso [62]

His work should have looked like this.

2x + y = 5
x − 2y = 10

y = 5 − 2x
x − 2(5 − 2x) = 10
x − 10 + 4x = 10
5x − 10 = 10                  When he added in both sides, he subtracted 10 from 10,
5x = 20                      instead of adding 10 from 10 to make 20.
x = 4
2(4) + y = 5
8 + y = 5

y = -3
