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.
Answer:
Okay the question is not full.
Answer:
-12.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
A percentage change is computed using ...
percent change = ((new amount) -(original amount))/(original amount) × 100%
We want to find the percentage change from 4.8 m, so we have ...
percent change = (4.2 -4.8)/4.8 × 100% = -.6/4.8×100% = -12.5%
The carpenter made the track 12.5% too short.
Answer:
-13 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Estimating that we start off on the middle line, we could solve this by simply looking at a number line. Moving 9 yards ahead would put us at 9. But moving back 22 would place us at a negative number. An easy way of doing this is subtracting 9 from 22:
22 - 9 = 13
But, we already know that since the answer is to the left of zero, it will be a negative number. So we flip the sign to get -13 yards.
