A study shows that, over the course of a lifetime, the average salary of college graduates is greater than the average salary of

people with only a high school diploma. The results were published claiming that graduating from college ensures you will make more money over the course of your lifetime. What is the problem with reporting results this way?

Answer: The word "ensures" implies that it is certain.

In the case of the study, they simply found that the average salary is greater for college graduates. This doesn't mean that in every case the college graduate makes more money.

The problem is the word "ensures". Our study doesn't show certainty only a general pattern.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a study shows that, over the course of a lifetime, the average salary of college graduates is greater than the average salary of people with only a high school diploma.

The results were published claiming that graduating from college ensures you will make more money over the course of your lifetime.

Only means should not be compared. variances of each sample should be ascertained and test for comparison of two means to be done to conclude that one mean is greater than the other.

Hence here problem is correlation and causality.

illey wants to solve the following equations using the method of elimination: y = x – 2 y = 4x – 8 What number should y = x – 2
lbvjy [14]

The second equation has 4x in it t. So to eliminate X, you need to multiply y = x-2 by -4, so the x would become -4x.

Alright, second try. 15 Points to whoever can solve with a half-decent explanation.

Answer:

29 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Heron's formula; A = \sqrt{S(S-a)(S-b)(S-c)}

S = 1/2 the perimeter of the given triangle

a, b, c = the measurements of the three given sides

The first step to solving this question is first finding the perimeter.

P = 65m + 74m + 67m

P = 206m

Now that we have our perimeter, we must divide P by 2 to get S.

S = 206/2

S = 103

Now we plug our numbers into Heron's formula.

A = \sqrt{S(S-a)(S-b)(S-c)}

A = \sqrt{103(103-65)(103-67)(103-74)}

A = \sqrt{103(38)(36)(29)}

A = \sqrt{103(39672)}

A = \sqrt{4086216}

Find the square root of this number.

A ≈ 2021.43909134... m²

If a can of paint covers 70 square meters, then you will need to figure out how many cans you need. This can be done by dividing the overall area of the triangle by the area that a single can of paint can cover.

\frac{2021.43909134...}{70} = 28.8777013049...

We know we can't buy 28.87... of a can (people simply do not sell parts of cans or half-full containers... unless its a bag of lays chips and their 80% air nonsense...) so we must round up to the nearest whole number.

28.87... = 29

Thus we finally have our answer: 29 cans of paint!
