well, in the election, the losing candidate received 10200 votes, and we know that's 30% of the whole votes cast, le's say the whole amount is "x" or namely 100%.

B)

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 10200&30\\ x&100 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{10200}{x}=\cfrac{30}{100}\implies \cfrac{10200}{x}=\cfrac{3}{10} \\\\\\ 102000=3x\implies \cfrac{102000}{3}=x\implies 34000=x

A)

Dorian's 3060 is really 30% of 10200, however, the losing candidate received 30% of the total votes cast, and that is 10200, so Dorian mistakenly is using 30% of the 30% received by the losing candidate as point of reference for her total.

What is the mean median and mode of 99, 69, 96, 69, 78. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary
KiRa [710]
A median is the middle number of a data set.
To find it put the numbers in order.
78, 69, 69, 96, 99
Then find the middle number
78, 69, *69,* 96, 99

The median is 69

A mode is the number that appears the most in a set of numbers.
78, *69, 69,* 96, 99

The mode is 69

To find the mean or average of a set of numbers, add all the numbers together then divide by the number of numbers there are.
99+69+96+69+78 = 411
411/5 = 82.2

The mean is 82.2

Answer this ASAP I really need it
Ede4ka [16]
Given the expression
-2 + 6.45z - 6 + (-3.25z)

First, classify like terms, constant with constant, coefficient-variable with coefficient-variable
-2 + 6.45z - 6 + (-3.25z)
= 6.45z + (-3.25z) - 2 - 6

Second, combining like terms
= 6.45z + (-3.25z) - 2 - 6
= 6.45z - 3.25z - 8
= 3.20z - 8

The simplest form is 3.20 - 8

A researcher asks random samples of residents of two separate counties as to whether they had purchased organically grown food i
Leni [432]

Answer:

2 proportions z test

The two populations are named as residents from the first county and residents from the second county.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is testing hypothesis about the difference between two proportions.

When the proportions are tested if they are the test statistic

z= ( p^1-p^2)- (p1-p2) / √p₁q₁/n₁ + p₂q₂/ n₂

where p^1 is the proportion of success in the first sample and   p^2 of size n₁   is the proportion of success in the second sample of size n₂ with unknown proportions of successes p1 and p2 respectively.

When the sample sizes are sufficiently large

z= ( p^1-p^2)- (p1-p2) / √p₁q₁/n₁ + p₂q₂/ n₂ is approximately standard normal.

The two populations are named as residents from the first county and residents from the second county.
