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.
The answer to the question is -1,-1
You can use factors to solve. Determine all the factor pairs of 24, find the two that are two numbers apart.
1, 24 X
2, 12 X
3, 8 X
4, 6 YES!
Algebraic way to solve using Quadratics:
l = 2 + w
A = lw
A = (2 + w)w Substitute (2 + w) for l
24 = (2 + w)w Substitute 24 in for the area
24 = 2w + w^2 Distribute
w^2 + 2w - 24 = 0 Set equal to 0 (put in standard form)
(w + 6) (w - 4) = 0 Factor
w + 6 = 0 and w - 4 = 0 Set each factor equal to 0.
So w= -6 or w = 4 ... -6 makes no sense for a length! So the width must be 4 and the length will be 4 + 2, which is 6.
