(a) 1

Explanation:

The mode of the data set is the number that occurs most frequently in the set. To easily find the mode. put the numbers in order from least to greatest and count how many times each number occurs. The number that occurs the most is the mode.

If 5 different numbers are there in a data set then, the mode would be 1 as a number is present minimum one number of times.

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Methods of obtaining a sample of 600 employees from the 4,700 workforce:

Part A: The type of sampling method proposed by the CEO is Convenience Sampling.

Part B: When there are equal number of participants in both campuses, stratification by campus would give a more precise approximation of the proportion of employees who are satisfied with the cleanliness of the breakrooms than stratification by gender. Another method to ensure that stratification by campus gives a more precise approximation of the proportion of employees who are satisfied with the cleanliness of the breakrooms than stratification by gender is to ensure that the sample is proportional to the proportion of each campus to the whole population or workforce.

Step-by-step explanation:

A Convenience Sampling technique is a non-probability (non-random) sampling method and the participants are selected based on availability (early attendees). The early attendees might be different from the late attendees in characteristics such as age, sex, etc. Therefore, sampling biases are present. All non-probability sampling methods are prone to volunteer bias.

Stratified sampling is more accurate and representative of the population. It reduces sampling bias. The difficulty arises in choosing the characteristic to stratify by.

What is the multiplicative inverse of 5 in z11, z12, and z13? you can do a trial-and-error search using a calculator or a pc?

grin007 [14]

A multiplicative inverse of an integer a is an integer x such that the product ax is congruent to 1 with respect to the modulus m.

1. $Z_{11}=\{\overline{0},\overline{1},\overline{2},\overline{3},\overline{4},\overline{5},\overline{6},\overline{7},\overline{8},\overline{9},\overline{10}\}.$

Check:

$5\cdot 0=\overline{0};$
$5\cdot 1=\overline{5};$
$5\cdot 2=\overline{10};$
$5\cdot 3=15=\overline{4};$
$5\cdot 4=20=\overline{9};$
$5\cdot 5=25=\overline{3};$
$5\cdot 6=30=\overline{8};$
$5\cdot 7=35=\overline{2};$
$5\cdot 8=40=\overline{7};$
$5\cdot 9=45=\overline{1};$
$5\cdot 10=50=\overline{6}.$

The multiplicative inverse of 5 in $Z_{11}$ is 9.

2. $Z_{12}=\{\overline{0},\overline{1},\overline{2},\overline{3},\overline{4},\overline{5},\overline{6},\overline{7},\overline{8},\overline{9},\overline{10},\overline{11}\}.$

Check:

$5\cdot 0=\overline{0};$
$5\cdot 1=\overline{5};$
$5\cdot 2=\overline{10};$
$5\cdot 3=15=\overline{3};$
$5\cdot 4=20=\overline{8};$
$5\cdot 5=25=\overline{1};$
$5\cdot 6=30=\overline{6};$
$5\cdot 7=35=\overline{11};$
$5\cdot 8=40=\overline{4};$
$5\cdot 9=45=\overline{9};$
$5\cdot 10=50=\overline{2};$
$5\cdot 11=55=\overline{7}.$

The multiplicative inverse of 5 in $Z_{12}$ is 5.

3. $Z_{13}=\{\overline{0},\overline{1},\overline{2},\overline{3},\overline{4},\overline{5},\overline{6},\overline{7},\overline{8},\overline{9},\overline{10},\overline{11},\overline{12}\}.$
