3x = 4y = 7z \\ \Rightarrow \begin{cases}3x - 4y = 0 \\4y - 7z = 0 \\ 7z - 3x = 0\end{cases} \\ \Leftrightarrow \begin{cases}x =  \frac{4}{3} y\\4y - 7z = 0 \\ 7z - 3( \frac{4}{3}y)  = 0\end{cases}  \\ \Leftrightarrow \begin{cases}x =  \frac{4}{3} y\\4y - 7z = 0 \\ 7z - 4y= 0\end{cases} \\ \Leftrightarrow \begin{cases}x =  \frac{4}{3} y\\ y \\ z =  \frac{4}{7}y \end{cases} \\ x,y,z\: are\: intergers\Rightarrow y=LCM(3,7)=21\Rightarrow x = 28,z = 12 \\ \Rightarrow x + y + z = 61

1. Complete the inequality below to describe the
dezoksy [38]

Domain is the entire span left to right (on the x-axis) that the graph is on. Since the graph goes from x=-4 and ends at x=4, the domain would be from -4 to 4. The circle at -4 is open, so it does not include the point at -4, just everything leading up to it. So, the domain would be

- 4 < x \leqslant 4

The range is similar, it is the entire span that the graph goes up and down (on the y-axis). The graph starts at the bottom at y=-2, and ends at y=5. The bottom point (4,-2) is closed, so the graph includes that point, and the top point (-4,5) is open and doesn't include the point. Therefore, the range would be

- 2 \leqslant x < 5

Out of the 120 students at a summer camp, 72 signed up for canoeing. There were 23 students who signed up for trekking, and 13 o
Virty [35]
Approx - 10% 


72 students signed up for canoeing + the 23 students who signed up for trekking + the 13 students who signed up for both = 108 students 

there are 120 students total, so you have to subtract 120 - 108 = 12 

Now to find the percentage, you have to divide the number of students who didn't sign up for either, by the total 

which is .1 = 10/100 = 10%

Which statement is true?
aleksandrvk [35]
<h3>Answer: Choice D</h3>

To calculate a point estimate, we need to know the sample size.

===========================================================

Explanation:

Let's go through the answer choices.

  • A) False. A sample statistic could equal to the population parameter. It won't always happen, but it might happen sometimes (in rare cases).
  • B) False. Point estimates are only defined for populations. They estimate a population parameter. For example, the sample mean xbar is a point estimate of the population mean (mu).
  • C) False. In practice, we will hardly know anything about the population. This includes the population size. The goal of statistics is to measure population parameters by using sample statistics as estimation methods.
  • D) True. We can easily calculate the sample size because it is relatively much smaller compared to the population. Plus, when selecting the sample, the sample size is often pre-determined to some set number. The sample size will help us determine things like the sample mean and the sample proportion.
