Mr. Wilson is giving his students a vocabulary test tomorrow over all the terms they have learned from this semester. Today, he

wants to determine how prepared the students are for the test. So, he writes each term on a note card and puts all the note cards in a paper bag. Then, he asks each student to come to his desk, select five note cards out of the bag, define those five terms, and then put the note cards back in the bag. He records the number of terms each student is correctly able to define.
What is the population in this situation? What is the sample? Use complete sentences in your answer.
Do you think the data from the sample Mr. Wilson is collecting is representative of the population? Explain your reasoning using complete sentences.

1) The population

Is the set of all the terms that the teacher taught this semester and which he wrote down on the note cards and put in the paper bag.

2) The sample is every set of five cards that is selected by each student.

3) I think the sample is representative because all ther terms have the same probability of being selected.

Further, given that the cards are replaced every time all the students will face the same population when they are going to select a sample.

  • Do you think the data from the sample Mr. Wilson is collecting is representative of the population?  The data is representative of the population because they are selected randomly without bias. Every of term has the same probability of being selected. Also it given that the cards are replaced every time, so all the students will face the same population when they are going to select a sample.

WHAT IS THE ANSWER??? HELP
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph has a  x - axis of amount of scarves in intervals of 1 and a y - axis of hours in intervals of 20

Using this information we can see that in the ordered pair, 1 represents x and 16 represents y, which means that the scarves ar 1 and the hours are 16 in the ordered pair

C makes the most logical sense because there is nothing about centimeters in the graph and the scarves are not in the y, but rather in the x

Find the values of a and b such that
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

a = 1.5

b = 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to solve (x+a)^2 and replace the result in the initial equation as:

x^2+3x+4=(x+a)^2+b\\x^2+3x+4=x^2+2ax+a^2+b

Then, this equality apply only if the coefficient of x is equal in both sides and the constant is equal in both sides.

It means that we have two equations:

3x=2ax\\4=a^2+b

So, using the first equation and solving for a, we get:

3x=2ax\\3=2a\\a=\frac{3}{2}=1.5

Finally, replacing the value of a in the second equation and solving for b, we get:

4=a^2+b\\4=1.5^2+b\\b=4-1.5^2\\b=4-2.25\\b=1.75
