A professor is interested in the average length of books in her library. She has divided her books into a few different categori

es: 235 books on mathematics, 290 books on sports, and 166 books on interior design. Rather than examining all the books, she plans to use a stratified sample of 50 books. How many of the sports books should she choose?

Answer:

<h2>21 books approximately.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we need to find the proportion of the sample. To do that, we sum all the books and then divide by the sample we need, which is 50

\frac{50}{235+290+166} =\frac{50}{691}, because we need 50 books among 691 total.

Now, with this ratio, which is the same for all sample we would make here, we find the stratified sample of books, specifically, for sports books which are 290.

s=290 \times \frac{50}{691}\\ s \approx 21

Thefore, she should take 21 sports books.

Remember that stratified sampling refers to a type of sampling method where the population is divided into separate groups, which in this case represented the type of books. Then, we use a "probability" sample, or a proportion of the sample to apply it.

The measures of two supplementary angles are (3x + 9)° and (2x + 2)°. What is the measure of the smaller angle? A. 16.6° B. 69.6
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles sum to 180°, hence

3x + 9 + 2x + 2 = 180, that is

5x + 11 = 180 ( subtract 11 from both sides )

5x = 169 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 33.8

Hence the smaller angle has a measure of

2x + 2 = (2 × 33.8) + 2 = 67.6 + 2 = 69.6° → B

If line uw bisects angle tuv,, m angle tue = (13x-5) and angle wuv = (7x+31) find the value of x
scZoUnD [109]

The value of x will be 6

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

According to the below diagram, UW is the angle bisector of ∠TUV

<u>That means,</u>  \angle TUW = \angle WUV

Given that,  \angle TUW = 13x-5 and \angle WUV= 7x+31

So, the equation will be......

13x-5=7x+31\\ \\ 13x-7x=31+5\\ \\ 6x=36\\ \\ x=\frac{36}{6}=6

So, the value of x will be 6.

Greeley [361]

Between the 4 and the 7 is it a multiplication or an X?

If the multiplication sign, this is the solution

- 3x + 6v + 7 \times 14 \\  =    6v  - 3x + 98

Match each graph with the correct slope of the line. drag and drop the answer
OLEGan [10]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Slope of the first graph:

Using two points on the line, (0, 1) and (3, 2),

slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{2 - 1}{3 - 0} = \frac{1}{3}

Slope = ⅓

✔️Slope of the second graph:

Using two points on the line, (0, 0) and (1, 1),

slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{1 - 0}{1 - 0} = \frac{1}{1} = 1

Slope = 1

✔️Slope of the third graph:

Using two points on the line, (0, 1) and (2, 2),

slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{2 - 1}{2 - 0} = \frac{1}{2}

Slope = ½
