The error is the way she wrote 3%

3% = 0.03

The correct equation should be y = 78,000(0.03)^x

You can rewrite that as:

a^2-4ab+6ab-24b^2  then factor 1st and 2nd pair of terms.

a(a-4b)+6b(a-4b) so you have

(a+6b)(a-4b)

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The correct option is F.

Step-by-step explanation:

A parameter is a single numerical value describing a certain characteristic of the entire population. It is computed using the population values. For example, population mean, population variance, etc.

A statistic is also a numerical value that defines certain characteristic of a sample. It is computed using the sample values. For example, sample mean, sample variance, etc.

Here the mean score for all the 50 students in the midterm Math exam is computed as 88.

This mean value is a parameter because it is computed using the entire population of 50 students in the math class,i.e. all the population values were included in the calculation of mean 88.

Thus, the correct option is F.
