Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Convenience sampling is a kind of non-probability-sampling (i.e. all items doesn’t have an equivalent chance of being selected), which doesn’t comprises of random collection of items. Convenience sampling is where we take in items which are easy to reach.  This sort of sampling technique results in a biased sample.

Systematic sampling is a kind of probability sampling method in which individuals from a larger population are nominated according to a random initial point and a static, periodic interval. If the individual <em>k</em> is selected as the first sample then the sample space consists of every <em>k</em>th individual.

In this case the first sample is an example of convenience sample and the second is a systematic sample.

PLEASE HELP!! Compare &amp; Contrast how Completing the Square is used to Convert a quadratic function to vertex form with how i
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a general quadratic formula given as ax²bx+c = 0

To generate the general formula to solve the quadratic equation, we can use the completing the square method as shown;

Step 1:

Bringing c to the other side

ax²+bx = -c

Dividing through by coefficient of x² which is 'a' will give:

x²+(b/a)x = -c/a

- Completing the square at the left hand side of the equation by adding the square of half the coefficient x i.e (b/2a)² and adding it to both sides of the equation we have:

x²+(b/a)x+(b/2a)² = -c/a+(b/2a)²

(x+b/2a)² = -c/a+(b/2a)²

(x+b/2a)² = -c/a + b²/4a²

- Taking the square root of both sides

√(x+b/2a)² = ±√-c/a + b²/√4a²

x+b/2a = ±√(-4ac+b²)/√4a²

x+b/2a =±√b²-4ac/2a

- Taking b/2a to the other side

x = -b/2a±√√b²-4ac/2a

Taking the LCM:

x = {-b±√b²-4ac}/2a

This gives the vertex form with how it is used to Solve a quadratic equation.

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

D 16 cupcakes and 40 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

I wrote an equation to solve for this

2.5x + x = 56

x represents cupcakes

3.5x = 56

x = 16

16 represents cupcakes.

16*2.5 = 40 (cookies)

Triangle ABC has the following characteristics. Angle A is right angle. AB=8. AC= 15. Find BC
Novay_Z [31]
Answer is c
use pythagorean
a^2 + b^2 = c^2

8^2+15^2= c^2
289=c^2

sqrt both sides

c=17

BC=17
