Answer:

The correct option is;

D. Biased

Step-by-step explanation:

A sampling method in which the members of the sample are not representative of the population, such that some members of the population have a higher or lower probability within the sample which is indicative that not all members of the population are sampled

A biased sample is a non random sample and the can lead to misleading data conclusion

In the question, the sampling of student opinion about the school cafeteria among students who are on the lunch line and so prefer the school cafeteria leaves out the portion of the population that get their lunch from alternative sources.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

A) Between 388 and 450

B) Between 357 and 481

C) Between 326 and 512

D) 99.995%

E) 72.907%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Mean; x¯ = 419 minutes

Standard deviation; σ = 31 minutes

A) From the empirical rule, 68% falls within 1 standard deviation.

Thus, it will be between;

419 - 1(31) and 419 + 1(31)

Thus gives;

Between 388 and 450

B) From the empirical rule, 95% falls within 2 standard deviation.

Thus, it will be between;

419 - 2(31) and 419 + 2(31)

Thus gives;

Between 357 and 481

C) From the empirical rule, 99.7% falls within 2 standard deviations.

Thus, it will be between;

419 - 3(31) and 419 + 3(31)

Thus;

Between 326 and 512

D)between 359 and 479 minutes, we will use z-s roe formula;

z = (479 - 359)/31

z = 3.871

From the z-table attached, we see that the probability is 0.99995 and as such, the percentage is 99.995%

E) worker spent 400 minutes on the job.

Thus;

z = (419 - 400)/31

z = 0.613

From z-tables, p = 0.72907

In percentage, we have; 72.907%

2x+y=3<br>x-y= 1<br><br>solve the equation ​
svetlana [45]

Answer:

x = 4/3

y = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

System of equations! This is set up really well to make the second equation equal x then substitute.

x - y = 1

x = 1 + y

and then our substitution:

2 (1+y) + y = 3

and solve:

2 + 2y + y = 3

3y + 2 = 3

3y = 1

y = 1/3

And now we can substitute that value into one of our equations:

x - (1/3) = 1

x = 4/3

Next we should check by substituting these values into both of our equations:

2 (4/3) + (1/3) = 3

9 / 3 does equal 3 !

(4/3) - (1/3) does equal 1 !

Therefore, x = 4/3 , and y = 1/3

The slope of AB is -2/5. Segment CD has endpoints at C(-5,3) and D(10,-3). Are AB and CD parallel, perpendicular or neither? Jus
irina [24]

Answer:

Neither

Step-by-step explanation:

When I input segment CD onto a graph, I get -0.4 as the slope or 15/-6. If the lines were parallel, they would need to have the same slope which they do not have. If they were perpendicular, they would need to have different slopes so, -2/5 and 5/2 which they do not. That leaves us with the only option of neither.
