Answer:

(a)High school students in the United States.

(b)100 Students

(c)Statistic

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)Since the researcher is interested in the texting habits of high school students in the United States, the population for this study consists of all high school students in the United States.

(b)It is most often improbable to carry out research on an entire population of study. A <u>sample is taken to represent the population</u> and the results obtained from the sample are assumed to hold for the entire population.

In the given study, the researcher selects a group of 100 students to represent the High School students in the United States. This is the sample for the study.

(c)The researcher calculated the average number of text messages that each individual sends each day from the sample of 100 Students. This is an example of a Statistic. A statistic is a numerical data obtained from a sample.

Note: If the data were obtained from the entire population, it would be a <u>parameter.</u>

You read online that the probability of being dealt four‑of‑a‑kind in a five‑card poker hand is 1 / 4165. Explain carefully what
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

There is about 4,164/4,165 chances of not getting getting a four of a kind. So, it is extremely unlikely or even borderline impossible in that situation to get a four of a kind.

<u>But in the long run, it can be increased only if you keep drawing.  So, the awnser would have to be. D  </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

A. It does mean that if you are dealt 4165 five‑card poker hands, one will be four‑of‑a‑kind.

B.  It does not mean that all will be four‑of‑a‑kind. The probability is actually saying that only on the 4165 the poker hand will you get a four‑of‑a‑kind, not just on any of the 4165 poker hands.

C. The probability is actually saying that in the long run, with a large number of five‑card poker hands, the fraction in which you will be dealt a four‑of‑a‑kind is 1 / 4165.

D. The chance you will be dealt four‑of‑a‑kind is 1 / 4165 only on the first hand. This chance will then increase with each new hand you are dealt until you eventually win

A car travelled 100 km with half the distance at 40 km/h and the other half at 80 km/h. Find the average speed of the car for th
Nana76 [90]
We must look at this question in steps
The first half of the journey is travelled at 40 km/h
Half of 100km is 50 km
Using the formula
Distance = Speed x Time
Speed = Distance / Time
Time = Distance / Speed
We can work out the time:

50km / 40km/h = 1.25 hours

Next we look at the second half of the journey
50km at 80km/h
50km / 80km/h = 0.625 hours

Add together both times to work out how long the entire journey took
1.25 + 0.625 = 1.875 hours

Using the Speed formula from before
Speed = 100km / 1.875 =
53 1/3 km/h or 53.3 recurring km/h
