Answer:
Option C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sampling bias is a problem during the initial data gathering step of a survey.
When the first step is wrong, then the survey cannot produce non biased results.
The problem occurs when the design of the study is wrong the data collection procedure is wrong.
So, here answer seems C, because the starting point is not selected at random in this survey.
(C) Jean wants to estimate the mean amount of money spent on clothes per week by mall shoppers. She collects data from every 10th person entering a clothing store at the mall.
Answers:
k = 13The smallest zero or root is x = -10
===============================
Work Shown:
note: you can write "x^2" to mean "x squared"
f(x) = x^2+3x-10
f(x+5) = (x+5)^2+3(x+5)-10 ... replace every x with x+5
f(x+5) = (x^2+10x+25)+3(x+5)-10
f(x+5) = x^2+10x+25+3x+15-10
f(x+5) = x^2+13x+30
Compare this with x^2+kx+30 and we see that k = 13
Factor and solve the equation below
x^2+13x+30 = 0
(x+10)(x+3) = 0
x+10 = 0 or x+3 = 0
x = -10 or x = -3
The smallest zero is x = -10 as its the left-most value on a number line.
