<span>Out of 120 students----------> 34 chose orange as the favorite fruit
</span>Find the <span>percentage
</span><span>percentage=34/120------> 17/60-----> 0.2833------> 28.33%

for </span>2,000 students
0.2833*2000=566.67-----------> about 567 students

Item 6 Your city is represented in a coordinate plane where each unit represents 1 kilometer. The library is at (−3, −3), the po
Snezhnost [94]

We know, shortest distance between two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is :

D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

So, distance between house and library is :

d_1=\sqrt{(-5-(-3))^2+(2-(-3))^2}\\\\d_1=5.39\ km

Distance between library and post office :

D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\\\D=\sqrt{(-3-2)^2+(-3-2)^2}\\\\D=7.07\ km

Distance between post office and house :

D=\sqrt{(2-(-5)^2)+(2-2)^2}\\\\D=7\ km

Therefore, minimum distance that you can ride your bike is (5.39+7.07+7) km = 19.46  km.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Leni [432]

Answer:

Option A is right

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that approximately 52% of all recent births were boys. In a simple random sample of 100 recent births, 49 were boys and 51 were girls. The most likely explanation for the difference between the observed results and the expected results in this case is

A) variability due to sampling

-- True because there is a slight difference whichmay be due to sampling fluctuations.

B) bias

False because given that 100 random births selected

C) nonsampling error

False.  There is no chance for systematic error here.

d) Confounding:  There is no confounding variable present inchild birth since each is independent of the other

e) a sampling frame that is incomplete

False because the sampling is done correctly.

A​ student's cost for last semester at her community college was ​$2000. She spent ​$280 of that on books. What percent of last​
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

14%

Step-by-step explanation:

A way I usually do it is with a fraction setup.

280/2000 = ?/100

multiply 280 by 100, and you get 28000. divide this by 2000, and you get 14!
