Answer:
a) The population is 40,858 students and the sample is 100.
b) No
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The population would be the 40,858 members of the student body. Since we are only applying the questionnaire to 100 students, the sample would be 100.
b) 29% of the students answered "zero" to the question on how many days in the past week they consumed at least one alcoholic drink. This means that 29 out of 100 students gave this answer. However, this doesn't mean that 29% of the entire population of UW would give this response. Why is that? Because our sample is very small so it might not be representative of the whole population. Equally, the results from such a sample cannot be exactly the same results we would get from an entire population.
Answer:
Joseph caught 7 tadpoles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of tadpoles caught by Joseph be x
The number of tadpoles Wendy caught will be ;
9(x + 3)
After Joseph was upset, he released half of Wendy’s tadpole and then six times as many as Joseph caught swam away leaving Wendy with only three tadpoles left;
Hence, mathematically;
9(x + 3)/2 - 6x = 3
Multiply through be 2
9(x + 3) - 12x = 6
9x + 27 -12x = 6
9x -12x = 6-27
3x = 21
x = 21/3
x = 7
in this problem what you are really looking for is which of these sets is a pathagorean triple. That means it will solve the pathagorean theorem. (a sqaured + b squared = c squared) c is always going to be the largest number or the hypotenuse. if you plug all the number sets into the theorem, only one works and that is 7, 24, 25 which is your answer.

Answer:
Option A.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the figure attached,
Given : ΔABC ~ ΔDEC
By the property of similarity,
"Corresponding sides of the similar triangles are proportional"
Since, 
6x = 42(32 - x)
6x = 1344 - 42x
6x + 42x = 1344
48x = 1344
x = 
x = 28 units
Therefore, Option (A). x = 28 units will be the answer.
