An amusement park's owners are considering extending the weeks of the year that it is opened. The owners would like to survey 10

0 randomly selected families to see whether an extended season would be of interest to those that may visit the amusement park.
What is the best way to randomly choose these 100 families?




Ask the first 100 families that enter the amusement park on a busy weekend day.

Have the owners of the amusement park ask the first 100 people they see.

Choose a neighborhood near the amusement park and ask 100 families in this neighborhood.

Allow a random number generator to come up with 100 families within a 50 radius of the amusement park.

The best way to randomly choose the 100 families would be to allow a random number generator to come up with 100 families within a 50 radius of the amusement park.

Using this method would ensure that it is more randomised & not limited to people who come at a specific time or are in a specific area as well as it not be affected by subconscious bias of people when selecting people to survey.

Algebra 2 Standard Deviation
Illusion [34]

Answer:

don't have answer but have how to do them

Step-by-step explanation:

What are z-scores?

A z-score measures exactly how many standard deviations above or below the mean a data point is.

Here's the formula for calculating a z-score:

z=\dfrac{\text{data point}-\text{mean}}{\text{standard deviation}}z=  

standard deviation

data point−mean

​  

z, equals, start fraction, start text, d, a, t, a, space, p, o, i, n, t, end text, minus, start text, m, e, a, n, end text, divided by, start text, s, t, a, n, d, a, r, d, space, d, e, v, i, a, t, i, o, n, end text, end fraction

Here's the same formula written with symbols:

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}z=  

σ

x−μ

​  

z, equals, start fraction, x, minus, mu, divided by, sigma, end fraction

Here are some important facts about z-scores:

A positive z-score says the data point is above average.

A negative z-score says the data point is below average.

A z-score close to 000 says the data point is close to average.

A data point can be considered unusual if its z-score is above 333 or below -3−3minus, 3. [Really?]

Example 1

The grades on a history midterm at Almond have a mean of \mu = 85μ=85mu, equals, 85 and a standard deviation of \sigma = 2σ=2sigma, equals, 2.

Michael scored 868686 on the exam.

Find the z-score for Michael's exam grade.

\begin{aligned}z&=\dfrac{\text{his grade}-\text{mean grade}}{\text{standard deviation}}\\ \\ z&=\dfrac{86-85}{2}\\ \\ z&=\dfrac{1}{2}=0.5\end{aligned}

Michael's z-score is 0.50.50, point, 5. His grade was half of a standard deviation above the mean.

Example 2

The grades on a geometry midterm at Almond have a mean of \mu = 82μ=82mu, equals, 82 and a standard deviation of \sigma = 4σ=4sigma, equals, 4.

Michael scored 747474 on the exam.

Find the z-score for Michael's exam grade.

\begin{aligned}z&=\dfrac{\text{his grade}-\text{mean grade}}{\text{standard deviation}}\\ \\ z&=\dfrac{74-82}{4}\\ \\ z&=\dfrac{-8}{4}=-2\end{aligned}

Michael's z-score is -2−2minus, 2. His grade was two standard deviations below the mean.

At 2pm the level of the water in the pool was 10 feet. At 6pm the level of water was 2 feet. Find the constant rate of the water
adelina 88 [10]
Assuming that the pool was drained at a constant rate, the speed at which it was drained can be expressed as a function of time. In this case, the pool level will be expressed in feet per hour.

The time changed by 4 hours (6-2), and the level of the pool changed by -8 feet (2-10). Diving the feet by the hours to get the rate of decreasing depth, we find that the rate equals -2 feet/hour.
