Answer: the answer is A
Step-by-step explanation: because the original question does not state that the swimmer “randomly selected” the members. It only says the swimmer “selects” 10 members. Therefore, it is A (The sample is not random)

Hey I'm in 6th too, Simplify means to solve the prob
Answer:
3000 students
Step-by-step explanation:
If 48% of the students are female, and there are 1440 female students, we can set up a percentage proportion, assuming x is the total amount of students.
We can use the cross products property to find the value of x.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
(x + 1)² = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
-2x = x² - 6
We'll start by rearranging it to solve for zero:
x² + 2x - 6 = 0
The first term is already a perfect square so that's fine. Normally, if that term had a non-square coefficient, you would need to multiply all terms a value that would change that constant to a perfect square.
Because it's already square (1), we can simply move to the next step, separating the -6 into a value that can be doubled to give us the 2, the coefficient of the second term. That value will of course be 1, giving us:
x² + 2x + 1 - 1 - 6 = 0
Now can group our perfect square on the left and our constants on the right:
x² + 2x + 1 - 7= 0
x² + 2x + 1 = 7
(x + 1)² = 7
To check our answer, we can solve for x:
x + 1 = ± √7
x = -1 ± √7
x ≈ 1.65, -3.65
Let's try one of those in the original equation:
-2x = x² - 6
-2(1.65) = 1.65² - 6
- 3.3 = 2.72 - 6
-3.3 = -3.28
Good. Given our rounding that difference of 2/100 is acceptable, so the answer is correct.
Three miles a day should be the correct answer
