Answer: the answer is A
Step-by-step explanation: because the original question does not state that the swimmer “randomly selected” the members. It only says the swimmer “selects” 10 members. Therefore, it is A (The sample is not random)

Answers:
- C) x = plus/minus 11
- B) No real solutions
- C) Two solutions
- A) One solution
- The value <u> 18 </u> goes in the first blank. The value <u> 17 </u> goes in the second blank.
========================================================
Explanations:
- Note how (11)^2 = (11)*(11) = 121 and also (-11)^2 = (-11)*(-11) = 121. The two negatives multiply to a positive. So that's why the solution is x = plus/minus 11. The plus minus breaks down into the two equations x = 11 or x = -11.
- There are no real solutions here because the left hand side can never be negative, no matter what real number you pick for x. As mentioned in problem 1, squaring -11 leads to a positive number 121. The same idea applies here as well.
- The two solutions are x = 0 and x = -2. We set each factor equal to zero through the zero product property. Then we solve each equation for x. The x+2 = 0 leads to x = -2.
- We use the zero product property here as well. We have a repeated factor, so we're only solving one equation and that is x-3 = 0 which leads to x = 3. The only root is x = 3.
- Apply the FOIL rule on (x+1)(x+17) to end up with x^2+17x+1x+17 which simplifies fully to x^2+18x+17. The middle x coefficient is 18, while the constant term is 17.
Answer:19.3
Step-by-step explanation:
96+28=124
6x+8=124
124-8=116
6x=116
116/6
x=19.3
Answer:
A = 14.2/1.1 hours
B = 5.091 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Formulate 2 simultaneous equations
5.7A + 6.8B = 111.40..........(1)
A +B =18...............................(2)
Multiply each item in (2) by 5.7 to get
5.7A + 5.7B = 97.2............(3)
subtract (1) - (3) on each side
5.7A -5.7A + 6.8B - 5.7B = 111.40 -97.2
1.1B = 14.2
B = 14.2 /1.1
to get A use equation (2)
A = 18 - B
A = 18 - 14.2/1.1 = 5.091
