<u>Answer</u>
y = (1/2)x - 1
<u>Explanation</u>
The first step is to get the gradient of the line.
The two points in the line are; (2,0) and (-2, -2).
Gradient = (-2 - 0)/(-2, - 2)
= -2/-4
= 1/2
To get the function we use one of the point (2,0) and a general point (x,y).
1/2 = (y - 0)/(x - 2)
1/2 = y/(x - 2)
(x - 2) = 2y
2y = x - 2
y = (1/2)x - 1
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: altitude of the plane in feet
y: final temperature
The equation modeling the problem for this case is given by:
Thus, evaluating the function for x = 11,000 ft. Height we have:
Answer:
the temperature at an altitude of 11,000 ft is 47.6 F
A landlord wants to know the average income of his tenants. He selects three of his eight apartment complexes and collects income information from several randomly chosen tenants within the selected complexes.
A health agency needs to assess the performance of hospitals in a region but does not have the resources to evaluate each hospital. To reduce costs, the agency selects 5 of the 23 hospitals in the region and samples data related to performance from randomly chosen days and times.
Answer: Options D and E.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Cluster sampling is a sampling plan used when mutually homogeneous yet internally heterogeneous groupings are evident in a statistical population. It is often used in marketing research. In this sampling plan, the total population is divided into these groups and a simple random sample of the groups is selected.
Stratified sampling is a probability sampling technique wherein the researcher divides the entire population into different subgroups or strata, then selects the final subjects proportionally from the different strata.
