Answer:

In this case, the 30% represents the proportion of the sample. It is a statistic that can be used to estimate a parameter of the population.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, the 30% represents the proportion of this specific sample (survey taken by the magazine).

It is a statistic that can be used to estimate a parameter of the population. In this case, it may be used to estimate the true proportion of "people in New York who believe that the Yankees will miss the playoffs this year".

If a new sample is taken, a new statistic will be calculated that may or may not be equal to 30%.

The average of three numbers is 45. two of the numbers are equal. the last number is 89. what are the two missing numbers?
trasher [3.6K]
The average of a set of data is equal to the sum of the values divided by the number of data present. So, if we have three numbers, the average would be:

let x, y and z represent the three numbers
average = x + y + z / 3 = 45

Two number are equal in value, so let x = y. Substituting the value to the expression of average,

45 = x + x + z / 3
45 = 2x + z / 3

It said that the last number is 89 so z is equal to 89.

45 = 2x + 89 / 3
135 = 2x + 89
46 = 2x
x = 23

Therefore, the two numbers are both 23.
