Pamela wants to learn more about the career preferences of students in her school. She interviews a number of students from the

advanced science classes. Why is this sample likely to be biased?
1.Advanced science students may not have clear career preferences.

2.The numbers of boys and girls in the advanced science classes are not equal.

3.Advanced science students are not representative of all the students in the school.

4.It is too early for students to have career preferences while still in school.

Answer:

Option 3 is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Pamela wants to learn more about the career preferences of students in her school. She interviews a number of students from the advanced science classes.

The sample will not be a random sample because only one set of students is interviewed.

option 1 is not right, because it is not about the defects of advanced science students.

Option 2 is not equal because gender equality is not essential.

Option 4 is wrong because when all school students are the population, age is right.

Option 3 is right.

The y coordinate of the vertex of f (x)=-x^2+8x+7 is f(4)
azamat

Hello there.

To answer this question, we need to remember some properties about the vertex of quadratic functions.

Let f(x)=ax^2+bx+c,~a\neq0. Its vertex can be found on the coordinates (x_v,~y_v) such that x_v=-\dfrac{b}{2a} and y_v=-\dfrac{b^2}{4a}+c, in which y_v=f(x_v).

Using the coefficients given by the question, we get that:

x_v=-\dfrac{8}{2\cdot(-1)}\\\\\\ x_v=-\dfrac{8}{-2}\\\\\\ x_v=4

Thus, we have:

y=f(x_v)=f(4)

So the statement is true, because the x coordinate of the vertex of the function is equal to 4.~~\checkmark

Whats the slope of (-3,-2) and (5,4)
Sphinxa [80]
Hello,

Slope is rise/run, or y/x, and if you are given two pairs of points, this is the equation needed:  (y2-y1) over (x2-x1).

Let me plug in the numbers: (4-(-2) over 5-(-3). And that is 6/8, which then is simplified to 3/4. So the slope of those two given points is 3/4. We do not divide or simplify it into a decimal because slope is a fraction, so we leave 3/4 as it is. 

Hope this helps, and that my explanation is not too confusing!

A line that includes the point (8, 5) has a slope of 1/6. What is its equation in point-slope form?
irina [24]
Y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-5=1/6(x-8)
y-5=1/6x-4/3
-1/6x+y=11/3
multiply both sides by -6
x-6y=-22
