Answer:
(B) A selected group of participants that is representative of a larger population
Step-by-step explanation:
A sample statistic is a piece of information that you get from a fraction of the population. This information is representative of a larger population.
For example, someone wants to conduct a survey about the most popular NFL team in Syracuse, NY, if it is the Buffalo Bills or the New York Giants. This person is not going to ask each person for whom they cheer. They are going to collect data from a fraction of the population and this data will be expanded to include the entire population.
So, the correct answer is:
(B) A selected group of participants that is representative of a larger population
Let volume of 4% solution = x and of 14% be y
them x + y = 65........(1) also using the actual weights of salt:-
0.04x + 0.14y = 65*0.06 = 3.9
multiplying the above equation by -25 we have
-x - 3.5y = -97.5 adding this to equation (1)
--2.5y = -32.5
y= 13
and x = 65 - 13 = 52
so we need 13 mls of the 14%, and 52 mls of the 4% solution.
