Answer:

Correct options are A,B,D:

The sample needs to be random, but we don't know if it is.

The actual count of community residents who received the concert brochure by mail is too small.

n(1 minus p‐hat) is not greater than 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Concert marketing: The college’s performing arts center wanted to investigate why ticket sales for the upcoming season significantly decreased from last year’s sales. The marketing staff collected data from a survey of community residents. Out of the 110 people surveyed, only 7 received the concert brochure in the mail.

A pole that is 2.5 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.47 m long. At the same time, a nearby tower casts a shadow that is 36.25 m lo

Roman55 [17]

The tower is 61.65 meters tall.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given that, a pole that is 2.5 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.47 m long.

At the same time, a nearby tower casts a shadow that is 36.25 m long.

We have to find height of the tower.

Now, we know that,

$2.5 \mathrm{m} \text { tall } \rightarrow 1.47 \text { long shadow }$

Then, (let it be) n meter tall $\rightarrow$ 36.25 long shadow

So, by cross multiplication method,

$\Rightarrow \frac{2.5}{1.47}=\frac{n}{36.25}$

This can be written as,

$\Rightarrow 36.25 \times 2.5=1.47 \times n \rightarrow 1.47 n=90.625 \rightarrow n=61.649 \rightarrow n=61.65 \text{ m}$

Cross multiplications steps: (To find Single Variable)

Multiply the numerator of the left-hand fraction by the denominator of the right-hand fraction.
Multiply the numerator of the right-hand fraction by the denominator of the left-hand fraction.
Set the two products equal to each other.
Solve for the variable.

Rewrite the expression $6j^2 - 4j 12$ in the form $c(j p)^2 q$, where $c$, $p$, and $q$ are constants. What is $\frac{q}{p}$

solniwko [45]

$Rewrite the expression 6j^2 - 4j + 12$ in the form $c(j + p)^2 + q$, where $c$, $p$, and $q$ are constants. What is $\frac{q}{p}$$

The ratio of $\frac{q}{p}$ = - 34

How to solve such questions?

Such Questions can be easily solved just by some Algebraic manipulations and simplifications. We just try to make our expression in the form which question asks us. This is the best method to solve such questions as it will definitely lead us to correct answers. One such method is completing the square method.

Completing the square is a method that is used for converting a quadratic expression of the form $ax^{2} + bx + c$ to the vertex form

$a(x - h)^{2} + k$ . The most common application of completing the square is in solving a quadratic equation. This can be done by rearranging the expression obtained after completing the square: $a(x + m)^{2} + n$ , such that the left side is a perfect square trinomial
