Answer:
Cluster sample
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an example of a cluster sample. In a cluster sample, the examiner divides the population into groups (each one of these groups is called a cluster) and once the examiner has these clusters, takes one of them and recollects the data from ALL the members of that cluster. In this case, the teacher divided the class in 3 different groups and then selects one of these groups and asks the average amount of time per week he/she spent studying.
Hey there,
To solve this problem, let us first define what is mean and median. Mean is the average of all the numbers in the data set while the median is the number in the middle of the data set in ascending order. If we create a box plot for the data of Rome and New York, we can see that there is an outlier in the data for New York. Since New York has an outlier, so the mean is not a good representation on the central tendency of the data. The mean is skewed (distorted) by the outlier. So in this case it is better to use the median. While the Rome data is nice and symmetrical, it does not seem to have an outlier, so we can use the mean for this data set.
Therefore the answer is:
The Rome data center is best described by the mean. The New York data center is best described by the median

Since the dimensions of the length and width are equal, then the board and the picture are squares. The width of the board is the margin surrounding the picture. Let's denote the width to be x. The length of the picture plus the length of the width at both ends should equal the length of the board. So, the equation should be:
10 1/2 in = 8 3/4 + 2x
Solving for x
x = 7/8 inches
The perimeter of the square is calculated through the equation,
4x = P
where P is the perimeter and x is the measure of the sides.
When P is 32 units then,
32 units = 4(x)
x = 8 inches
This 8 inches is the diameter of the cylinder formed by the rotation.
The circumference of the base is calculated through,
C = 2πr = πD
Substituting the known values,
C = π(8 units) = <em>8π units
</em><em></em>When π is equal to 3.14, we solve for the numerical value of the cylinder as follows,
<em> C = 8(3.14) = 25.12 units
</em><em></em>Thus, the figure formed is a cylinder with base circumference equal to 25 units. The answer is the third choice. <em>
