Answer: Statistic.

Step-by-step explanation: Statistic are used to refer to numerical measurement pertaining to a sample. A sample refers to a subset of members chosen from a population, which means a smaller representation of the larger group. Hence, in the scenario above, the population is the entire seniors which makes up the group. While the sample is the subset of seniors drawn from the whole. Hence, statistical measures calculated or derived from the sample is called statistic. Hence, the 25% obtained is a statistic.

Answer:

\frac{(a + b)^{2} }{a - 2 {b}^{2} }  =  \frac{ {(6 + ( - 8))}^{2} }{6 - 2 {( - 8)}^{2} }  =  \frac{(6 - 8)^{2} }{6 - 2(64)}  \\  \\  =  \frac{( - 2)^{2} }{6 - 128}  =  \frac{4}{ - 122}  =  - 0.032787

Sixty-five randomly selected car salespersons were asked the number of cars they generally sell in one week. Fourteen people ans
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The questions are

  1. What does the frequency column in the attached table sum to?
  2. What does the relative frequency column in attached table  sum to?
  3. What is the difference between relative frequency and frequency for each data value  in the attached table?
  4. What is the difference between cumulative relative frequency and relative frequency  for each data value in attached table?

The correct answers are

  1. 65
  2. 1
  3. The relative frequency gives the relative proportion of each frequency in the sample while
  4. The frequency is the observed number of count of each grouping has in a given sample size

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The frequency column in the attached column sums up to 65 because it is the total number of sales persons selected

2. The relative frequency column in the attached table sum up to 1 because it is the sum of the fractions of the individual frequencies to the total frequency

3. The difference between relative frequency and frequency for each data value is that

The relative frequency gives the relative proportion of each frequency in the sample while

4. The frequency is the observed number of count of each grouping has in a given sample size

Solve each quadratic equation by completing the square. Give exact answers--no decimals.
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

x_1 = \frac{3}{2} + \frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{47})i\\\\x_2 = \frac{3}{2} - \frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{47})i\\\\

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we have the equation of the following quadratic equation and we want to solve it using the method of square completion:

x ^ 2 -3x +14 = 0

The steps are shown below:

For any equation of the form: ax ^ 2 + bx + c = 0

1. If the coefficient a is different from 1, then take a as a common factor.

In this case a = 1.

Then we go directly to step 2

2. Take the coefficient b that accompanies the variable x. In this case the coefficient is -3. Then, divide by 2 and the result squared it.

We have:

\frac{-3}{2} = -\frac{3}{2}\\\\(-\frac{3}{2}) ^ 2 = (\frac{9}{4})

3. Add the term obtained in the previous step on both sides of equality:

x ^ 2 -3x + (\frac{9}{4}) = -14 + (\frac{9}{4})

4. Factor the resulting expression, and you will get:

(x -\frac{3}{2}) ^ 2 = -(\frac{47}{4})

Now solve the equation:

Note that the term (x -\frac{3}{2}) ^ 2 is always > 0 therefore it can not be equal to -(\frac{47}{4})

The equation has no solution in real numbers.

In the same way we can find the complex roots:

(x -\frac{3}{2}) ^ 2 = -(\frac{47}{4})\\\\x -\frac{3}{2} = \±\sqrt{-(\frac{47}{4})}\\\\x  = \frac{3}{2} \±\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{-47}\\\\x = \frac{3}{2} \±\frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{47})i\\\\x_1 = \frac{3}{2} + \frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{47})i\\\\x_2 = \frac{3}{2} - \frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{47})i\\\\
