Answer:
Sample: few thousand adults
Population: all the adults
Step-by-step explanation:
A sample is a subset of the population, selected randomly.
In this case:
The sample consist of the few thousand adults selected to determine the opinions about the National polls.
The population consist of all the adults belonging to the said nation.
Consider an example about the new President election.
To determine which of the two candidates (say <em>A</em> and <em>B</em>) has a higher probability of winning the President election, the election society took a random sample of voters and asked who they think will be a better president.
The sample selected will be large enough, probably 10% of the population of all voters.
From this study it can be estimated which candidate has the higher chance of winning.
Answer:
They live 285 miles apart
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total distance be x miles
Sean is driving to visit his friend in another state. In the first hour he travels 1/5 of the total distance. This means that he drove x/5 in the first hour. In the second hour he travels 34 miles. That means
Total distance driven in the first and second hour is
(x/5 + 34)miles
He still has 194 miles more to go.
Therefore,
The total distance is the sum of the distance travelled in the first and second hour + the remaining distance.
x = x/5 + 34 + 194
x = x/5 + 228
Cross multiplying
5x = x + 1140
4x = 1140
x = 1140/4 = 285 miles
