Answer:

25.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the stopwatch records times to the nearest thousandth of a second, it means that the time recorded will be given at 3 decimal places.

To get the time in the nearest tenth of a second, we would first convert to the nearest hundredth of a second, at this, the reading  of  25.453 seconds will be

=  25.45 seconds

Since the number at the hundredth position is 5 (or more), we would add 1 to the number at the tenth position to round it to the nearest tenth. Hence the reading to the nearest tenth

= 25.5 seconds

Answer:

Sinθ = 24/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Sinθ = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Solve for the opposite side using the Pythagorean Theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2\\7^2+b^2=25^2\\49+b^2=625\\b^2=576\\b=24

Therefore, Sinθ = 24/25.

Does this sample have a bias
raketka [301]

Answer:

Yes, the sample has a bias

Step-by-step explanation:

Bias is the term used in statistics to describe a systematic distortion in the samples obtained for the parameter being estimated. It is evident by obtaining values higher or lower than that of the average population for the parameter being measured. As such the data is a misrepresentation of the population and cannot be trusted to give a good indices of things.

This sample has a bias because the concerned citizen opted to use a <em>convenience sampling</em> instead of using <em>random sampling</em>. In <em>random sampling</em>, every individual has an equal chance of being chosen which is unlike the <em>convenience sampling</em> when only a specific group of individuals can be chosen. In this case, the bias was introduced when the citizen went to stand outside the courthouse with his petition, the citizen should have taken samples across diverse geographical locations and professional institutions. The implication of this sampling is that a significant percentage of the population has been sidelined (considering they would not be in or around the courthouse) from the sampling and the sampling has been restricted to only those who have business around the courthouse. The result is that whatever samples he/she obtains will not be an accurate representation of the parameter being measure from the population.

<u>As such, the sampling technique is biased </u>

Help asap!!<br> a. SG<br> b. HS <br> c. GT<br> d. FT
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer: choice c. GT

===================================

Explanation:

A median is a segment that runs from a vertex point to the midpoint of the opposite side. Segment GT starts at the vertex G and goes to the midpoint T. We know that T is a midpoint since FT and TH are both 3 units long

since FT = TH, we know that FT is half as long as FH; or put another way, FH is twice as long as FT.

---------

Extra info

* Segment HS is an angle bisector: it cuts angle GHF in half.

* If you have two median lines, then you can find the centroid of the triangle.
