Answer:

A. The larger the sample size the better.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean \mu = p and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

In this question:

We have to look at the standard error, which is:

s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

This means that an increase in the sample size reduces the standard error, and thus, the larger the sample size the better, and the correct answer is given by option a.

Y = - x + 4 y = 2x - 8​
natulia [17]

Answer:

{y,x} = {0,4}

Step-by-step explanation:

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  y  

 

 [2]    y = 2x - 8

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [1]

  [1]    (2x-8) + x = 4

  [1]    3x = 12

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x  

  [1]    3x = 12  

  [1]    x = 4  

// By now we know this much :

   y = 2x-8

   x = 4

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y  

   y = 2(4)-8 = 0

It’ll be -5x - 24

you multiply the 5 by 4 and it’ll be 24, and put the x with the 5 and that’ll be your answer :)
