a. What is the point estimate for the percent who want to have their grades scored on a curve?
b. What is the poll’s margin of error?
c. Do you think their class should have their grades scored on a curve? Which statistic influenced your answer the most? Explain.

A. The point estimate would be the average of the interval boundaries, which is the average of 48.2 and 56.4. This gives a point estimate of 52.3%.
b. The margin of error is the distance from either interval boundary to the point estimate. 56.4 - 52.3 = 4.1%.
c. Assuming this is solely going to be based on the class' decision, their grades should be scored on a curve. Although the margin of error is high and this seems to not have a significant distance from 50%, there is no "middle ground" in this option. We must either grade on a curve or not, and if we must choose one, we have to use to point estimate that is just slightly above 50%.

For the following pair of lines, identify the system by type.
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Inconsistent

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of equation is said to be inconsistent if the lines are parallel or the system of equations have no solution.

From the given graphs of lines, we can say that the lines are parallel to each other. Hence, the graphs never intersect.

Since, the lines are parallel hence, we can say that there would be no solution for the system of equations.

Therefore, the system is inconsistent.

Hence, third option is the correct option.

What is m∠S? Enter your answer in the box. ° An isosceles triangle with vertices labeled R, S, and T. Side R T is the base. Side
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

m<S = 45°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle equals 180 deg.

m<R + m<S + m<T = 180

3x + 2x + 3x = 180

8x = 180

x = 22.5

m<S = 2x = 2(22.5) = 45
