Answer:

Counselor's estimate isn't correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students in university = 30,600

2% break 3 of the languages

Therefore, 2/100 × 30600 = 612 students break 3 of the languages in the University according to the counselor.

In a random sample of 240 students, 20 break 3 of the languages.

% = 20/240 × 100 = 8.33%

SinceTotal number of students = 30,600

Therefore, 30,600/240 = 127.5

Which means 127.5 × 20 = 2550.

Which means 2550 students break 3 of the languages as against the 612 students stated by the counselor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Claim:

it takes n - 1 number of breaks to break the bar into n separate squares for all integers n.

Basic case -> n = 1

The bar is already completely broken into pieces.

Case -> n ≥ 2

Assuming that assertion is true for all rectangular bars with fewer than n squares. Break the bar into two pieces of size k and n - k where 1 ≤ k < n

The bar  with k squares requires k − 1 breaks and the bar with n − k squares

requires n − k − 1 breaks.

So the original bar requires  1 + (k−1) + (n−k−1) breaks.

simplifying yields,

1 + k − 1 + n − k − 1

1 - 1 + n - 1

n - 1

Therefore, we proved as we claimed that it takes n - 1 breaks to break the bar into n separate squares.
