Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The sampling of this study is bias

Step-by-step explanation:

Sampling bias is a bias that is gotten during sampling where some members of the population have a lower representation or probability than others in the sample pool. In this case, only the residents living near a river was sampled, and because they are subjected to relatively the same conditions (living near a river), the result of the study will not be a true representation of every member of the town because the people living far away from the river will most likely have different opinions due to their different environmental exposure than the people living close to the river. The correct thing to have been done for the result to be reliable and accurate will be to sample at random, people in the two both close to and far away from the river, or to sample equal number of people each living close to and far away from the river.

Another example of sampling bias is a study to determine the effect of alcohol on pregnancy in women in America, and only pregnant white women who drink are sampled, leaving out Black or Hispanic women, what ever result gotten in the study may hold true for white women in America, but it may not hold true for every woman in America

Sally can paint the wall in 54 minutes. If Sally and Ethan work together, they can paint the wall in 36 minutes. How much time d

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

$108\ minutes$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) we know that

Sally can paint the wall in 54 minutes

so

The 100% of the wall ------> she can paint in 54 minutes

by proportion

calculate how much is the percent of the work in 36 minutes

$\frac{100\%}{54} =\frac{x\%}{36}\\ \\x=36*100/54\\ \\x=66.67\%$

That means

Sally in 36 minutes can paint the 66.67% of the wall

2) Sally and Ethan work together, they can paint the wall in 36 minutes

so

Ethan in 36 minutes can paint (100%-66.67%)=33.33%

by proportion

Calculate how much time does it take for Ethan to paint the wall by herself

$\frac{33.33\%}{36} =\frac{100\%}{x}\\ \\x=36*100/33.33\\ \\x=108\ minutes$

Mike wants to fence in part of his backyard. He wants the length of the fenced-in area to be at least 20 feet long, l ≥ 20. He h

I added a screenshot of the complete question along with the given choices.

Answers:

w = 10 ft and l = 50 ft ................> second option

w = 20 ft and l = 60 ft ...............> third option

w = 50 ft and l = 40 ft ...............> fifth option

Explanation:

We are given that:

length should be at least 20 ...........> length ≥ 20

equation for perimeter is : 2l + 2w ≤ 200

We will check each option as follows:

Option 1:

w = 50 ft and l = 10 ft

This option is incorrect as the proposed length is less than 20.

Option 2:

w = 10 ft and l = 50 ft

Since the length is greater than 20, the first condition is satisfied.

Now, we check the second condition:

2l + 2w = 2(50) + 2(10) = 100 + 20 = 120 ≤ 200

The second condition is also satisfied.

This option is correct

Option 3:

w = 20 ft and l = 60 ft

Since the length is greater than 20, the first condition is satisfied.

Now, we check the second condition:

2l + 2w = 2(60) + 2(20) = 120 + 40 = 160 ≤ 200

The second condition is also satisfied.

This option is correct

Option 4:

w = 90 ft and l = 30 ft

Since the length is greater than 20, the first condition is satisfied.

Now, we check the second condition:

2l + 2w = 2(30) + 2(90) = 60 + 180 = 240 > 200

The second condition is not satisfied.

This option is incorrect

Option 5:

w = 50 ft and l = 40 ft

Since the length is greater than 20, the first condition is satisfied.

Now, we check the second condition:

2l + 2w = 2(50) + 2(40) = 100 + 80 = 180 ≤ 200

The second condition is also satisfied.

This option is correct

Hope this helps :)

Angle 4 and Angle 2 are vertical angles, meaning that they are congruent. Therefore, the measure of angle 2 is 127 degrees.

Angle 4 and Angle 3 are a linear pair, meaning that they are supplementary and add up to 180 degrees. Therefore, the measure of angle 3 is 53 degrees.

Angle 3 and Angle 1 are vertical angles, meaning that they are congruent. Therefore, the measure of angle 1 is 53 degrees.

Hope this helps!
