Answer:

A parameter is a numerical measurement describing data from a population. A statistic is a numerical measurement describing data from a sample

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics we have to deal with populations and samples to carry out our studies. A population is a large group under consideration and the elements or members of the population have some common features or attributes. For example, all the school going kids in a certain town will be considered a population. Sample on the other hand is a subset(a part) of the population. For example, all school going kids in the town aged 5-6 years will be considered a sample.

The term Parameter and Statistic are very similar as they represent some numeric description. Parameter represents the data of the entire population, while statistic represents that data of a sample. An easy way to remember this is to match the initials i.e. Parameter for Population and Statistic for Sample.

Considering this, we can say the correct answer is:

A parameter is a numerical measurement describing data from a population. A statistic is a numerical measurement describing data from a sample

Trapezoid QRST has two right angles. A 5-in.altitude can be drawn dividing QRDT into a rectangle and an isosceles right triangle
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The area of the trapezoid is 57.5 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The trapezoid QRST can be divided into a rectangle QRDT and an isosceles right triangle RSD

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

The area of rectangle is given by the formula

A=((QR)(RD)

we have

RD=5\ in ----> altitude

QR=9\ in

substitute

A=((9)(5)=45\ in^2

step 2

Find the area of the isosceles right triangle

The area of triangle is given by the formula

A=\frac{1}{2}(RD)(DS)

we have

RD=DS=5\ in ---> because is an isosceles triangle

substitute

A=\frac{1}{2}(5)(5)=12.5\ in^2

step 3

Adds the areas

A=45+12.5=57.5\ in^2

Adam spent $3.42 on orange juice. It costs .12 per ounce. How many did Adam buy?
SIZIF [17.4K]
Hi, 


 I would say that the answer is 28, but it still doesn't add up because when you multiply 12 by 28 you get $3.36 which isn't enough to meet his total, so I tried multiplying 12 by 29 and I got $3.48, which is six cents over his total. So I'm sorry if it is wrong I tried to help to my best ability.

I hope it helps, have a great day/night!!!

In this composite function, (f◦g)(x) where f(x)=(X-3) and g(x)=X^2 what is (f◦g)(x) when x=1?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

When x = 1, (f◦g)(x) is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Composite function:

The composite function of f and g is given by:

(f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x))

In this question:

f(x) = x - 3, g(x) = x^2

Composite function:

The composite function is:

f(g(x)) = f(x^2) = x^2 - 3

At x = 1

(f \circ g)(1) = 1^2 - 3 = 1 - 3 = -2

So

When x = 1, (f◦g)(x) is -2.

Klio2033 [76]

He paid 80 at the start, so his starting must have been 80

Step-by-step explanation:

80+40=120...
