Twenty percent of a radioactive substance decays in ten years by what percent does the substance decay each year
kifflom [539]

Answer:

2%

Step-by-step explanation:

20% takes 10 years to decay

To find per year decay, we divide the percentage by the number of years, so we get unit rate of years {per year]. Thus we have:

20%/10 = 2% per year

It's that simple.

Hence, the percentage by which the substance decays each year is 2%

In 2017 the Gallup poll surveyed 1021 adults in the United States and found that 57% supported a ban on smoking in public places
maria [59]

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

A population is the set of all the data that can be collected and from which a smaller set of data is drawn for further examination. A population may denote to a group of individuals, articles, trials or measurements. A population can thus be called as a collection of information regarding subjects combined together by a common characteristic.  

  • The population is adults in the United States.

A sample denotes a smaller, controllable form of a larger cluster. It is a subset comprising of the characteristics of a bigger population. Samples are used in statistical experiments when the population under consideration is too large for the test to include all the members.

  • The sample is the 021 adults surveyed.

(b)

A parameter is a valuable element of statistical analysis. It denotes the characteristics that are used to define a given population. It is used to define a particular attribute of the population. For instance, population mean, population standard deviation, population proportion and so on.

  • The parameter of interest is population proportion of adults in the United States who support smoking bans.

While making a statistical conclusion about the population under study, the parameter value is unknown. This is because it would not be possible to gather data from every single member of the population. So a sample is selected from the population to derive a conclusion about the parameter.

A statistic is the value of the characteristics that are computed using this sample. For instance, sample mean, sample standard deviation, sample proportion and so on.

  • The statistic is the 57% of adults who support smoking bans.

Forensic specialists can estimate the height of a deceased person from the lengths of the person's bones. These lengths are subs
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

130.2845\leq h\leq 137.7245

Step-by-step explanation:

Given an inequality that relates the height h, in centimeters, of an adult female and the length f, in centimeters, of her femur by the equation

|h - (2.47f + 54.10)| \leq  3.72

If an adult female measures her femur as 32.25 centimeters, we can determine the possible range of her height by plugging f = 32.25cm into the modelled equation as shown:

|h - (2.47(32.25) + 54.10)| \leq  3.72\\|h - (79.9045 + 54.10)| \leq  3.72\\|h - (134.0045)| \leq  3.72\\

If the modulus function is positive then:

h - 134.0045 \leq  3.72\\h \leq 3.71+134.0045\\h\leq 137.7245

If the modulus function is negative then:

-(h - 134.0045) \leq  3.72\\-h+134.0045 \leq 3.72\\-h\leq 3.72-134.0045\\-h\leq -130.2845\\

multiply through by -1

-(-h)\geq  -(-130.2845)\\h\geq 130.2845\\130.2845\leq h

combining the resulting inequalities, the estimate of the possible range of heights will be 130.2845\leq h\leq 137.7245
