a. The population for the study is a total of 1000 adults, so the 50% that favored the plan made up a total of 500 people, since 500 is 1/2 (or 50%) of 1000.
b. The percentage provided is an inferential statistic. Inferential statistics are made by taking a sample of a population and using that sample as data used to make inferences/predictions. Since the percentage provided is a sample of a population being used to make a prediction, it is an inferential statistic.
Answer:55.6%
Step-by-step explanation:
45-70= -25
-25/45 = 0.555
=55.6
General equation of parabola: y-k = a(x-h)^2
Here the vertex is at (0,0), so we have y-0 = a(x-0)^2, or y = ax^2
All we have to do now is to find the value of the coefficient a.
(1,2) is on the curve. Therefore, 2 = a(1)^2, or 2 = a(1), or a = 2.
The equation of this parabola is y = 2x^2.
Answer:
The correct option is c.
Step-by-step explanation:
The percentage probability distribution is:
Size (X) Percentage
2 39.9
3 24.4
4 20.1
5 10.8
6 3.3
7 1.5
Total 100.0
Compute the probability that the size of the family is 4 or more as follows:
P (X ≥ 4) = P (X = 4) + P (X = 5) + P (X = 6) + P (X = 7)
= 0.201 + 0.108 + 0.033 + 0.015
= 0.357
Thus, the probability that the size of the family is 4 or more is 0.357.
The correct option is c.
