A fitness center is interested in the average amount of time a client exercises in the center each week. Define the following in
terms of the study. Give examples where appropriate. (Multiple choice) Population :
(A) The population is all of the clients of the fitness center.
(B) The population is the total amount of time a client exercises in one week.
(C) The population is all of the clients that use the fitness center for a given week.
(D)) The population is all of the clients sampled by the fitness center.
Step-by-step explanation: As they are interested in the amount of time a client exercises in a week, the population would be all the clients that use the fitness center for a given week.
Clients that do not go on this week are not part of the population. The amount of time is what they want to know, so it cannot be the population.
Number of times she climbed 5-mile mountain trail = x Number of times she climbed 10-mile trail = y total distance of the 5-mile mountain trail will be = 5*x =5x total distance of the 10-mile mountain trail will be = 10*y = 10y equation that can be used to find the number of times she hiked each trail is therefore 5x + 10y = 90
