news release for a diet product company reports: There's good news for the 65 million Americans currently on a diet. Its study showed that people who lose weight can keep it off. The sample was 20 graduates of the company's program who endorse it in commercials. The results of the sample are probably

A. unbiased, but they could be more accurate. A larger sample size should be used.

B. biased, overstating the effectiveness of the diet.

C. biased, understating the effectiveness of the diet.

D. None of the above

Answer:

Option B "biased and overstating the effectiveness of the diet"

Step-by-step explanation:

It is evident that there is sampling/volunteer biased in the data report because the sample for endorsement of diet is not random because all the people that endorsed it in the commercial have a tie with the company so it is a mis representation of the population.

works as a florist and worked 12 hours last week and earned $98. At that rate, how much will she earn this weekend if she works
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

$114.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of hours worked last week  = 12hrs

Amount earned for her work hours = $98

 The rate at which she earned =  ?

        Rate = \frac{amount earned }{total work hour}  

        Rate  = \frac{98}{12}    = $8.17/hr

Now;

Since the total hours she worked during the weekend  = 14hrs

  Amount earned  = $8.17/hr   x 14hrs   = $114.3

Median and mean math questions
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer: #7 D) neither set. #6. C) the sum of the data values must be 75. #5. The 6th missing temperature must be 80 degrees

Step-by-step explanation: #7. if you eliminate 3 numbers on each side on set A, then the numbers remaining are 2 and 19. In order to find the median add the two numbers, 19+2 which equals 21. Then divide that number by 2 to find your median, or in other words find the average, 21 divided by 2 is 10.5 which is not 12.5, so that set doesn’t work. In set B eliminate 2 numbers on each side. That will leave you with 10 and 9, then again find the average of the numbers. 10+9=19, and 19 divided by 2= 9.5. So therefore neither of the sets have a median of 12.5

#6. If there are five numbers in the data set and you are finding the average to be 15, then the five values must equal 75. In order to find the average of five numbers you must first add all of your values, and then divide by five, for there are five numbers. If you add all of your numbers up it must total 75, because 75 divided by 5= 15 which is the mean. Any other total would not work.

#5. The median of the original set is 72 degrees. In order to find the missing number you need to do some check and guess. Take the original median and add a number relatively close to the other numbers, for example 75, then add the two numbers together, 72+75=147. Then divide that by two, 147 divided by 2= 73.5 which is not the correct median number, its too low, so experiment with higher numbers and repeat the same process until you find a number that, if added to 72, totaled, and then divided by 2 equals 76.

I really hope this helped :)
