4.888...%

428 + 22 = 450

22/450 = 0.4888...

0.4888... x 100 = 4.888...

Answer:

No, it is not a representative sample

Step-by-step explanation:

The sampling technique used above is more of a random sampling than a representative sampling. Reason is that;

A representative sample is referred to as a group or set selected from a larger population that satisfactorily represent the population in study in accordance to whatever criteria is under study.

The criteria could be age, sex, class, etc.

Another reason why it can't be considered as a representative sample is that, using representative sampling makes sure that all relevant types of people are included in your sample and that the right mix of people are interviewed.

In the question above, anybody can submit his or choice and number of submissions is not limited.

pshichka [43]

If a marble is randomly selected from the box, then the probability

that it is small or green is 0.7297

Step-by-step explanation:

A box contains 19 large marbles and 18 small marbles

Each marble is either green or white

9 of the large marbles are green, and 8 of the small marbles are white

If a marble is randomly selected from the box, we need to find the

probability that it is small or green

1. Find P(small) ⇒ P(s)

2.Find P(green) ⇒ P(g)

3. Find P(small and green) ⇒ P(s and g)

4. Use the rule P(small or green) = P(s) + P(g) - P(s and g)

∵ The box contains 19 large marbles and 18 small marbles

∴ The total number of marbles = 19 + 18 = 37

∴ P(s) = $\frac{18}{37}$

∵ There are 8 small white marbles

∵ There are 18 small marbles

∴ The number of small green marbles = 18 - 8 = 10

∴ P(s and g) = $\frac{10}{37}$

∵ There are 9 large green marbles

∵ There are 10 small green marbles

∴ The number of green marbles = 9 + 10 = 19

∴ P(g) = $\frac{19}{37}$

∵ P(small or green) = P(s) + P(g) - P(s and g)

∴ P(small or green) = $\frac{18}{37}+\frac{19}{37}-\frac{10}{37}$

∴ P(small or green) = $\frac{27}{37}$ = 0.7297

If a marble is randomly selected from the box, then the probability

that it is small or green is 0.7297

Given 3 sides of a triangle - how to tell it right, acute, or obtuse 8,11, 16

user100 [1]

Using Pythagorean theorem, we can justify our answer.
if c^2 = a^2 + b^2 then triangle is right one,
if c^2 > a^2 + b^2 then triangle is obtuse and
if c^2 < a^2 + b^2 then triangle is acute triangle.

Here a=8, b=11 and c=16
Put these values in the equation
16^2 = 8 ^2 + 11^2
256 = 64 +121
256> 185
So here c^2 > a^2 + b^2 Which means triangle is obtuse triangle.
