Answer:
(B) A selected group of participants that is representative of a larger population
Step-by-step explanation:
A sample statistic is a piece of information that you get from a fraction of the population. This information is representative of a larger population.
For example, someone wants to conduct a survey about the most popular NFL team in Syracuse, NY, if it is the Buffalo Bills or the New York Giants. This person is not going to ask each person for whom they cheer. They are going to collect data from a fraction of the population and this data will be expanded to include the entire population.
So, the correct answer is:
(B) A selected group of participants that is representative of a larger population
I got D.
There's a few ways to solve it; I prefer using tables, but there are functions on a TI-84 that'll do it for you too. The logic here is, you have a standard normal distribution which means right away, the mean is 0 and the standard deviation is 1. This means you can use a Z table that helps you calculate the area beneath a normal curve for a range of values. Here, your two Z scores are -1.21 and .84. You might notice that this table doesn't account for negative values, but the cool thing about a normal distribution is that we can assume symmetry, so you can just look for 1.21 and call it good. The actual calculation here is:
1 - Z-score of 1.21 - Z-score .84 ... use the table or calculator
1 - .1131 - .2005 = .6864
Because this table calculates areas to the RIGHT of the mean, you have to play around with it a little to get the bit in the middle that your graph asks for. You subtract from 1 to make sure you're getting the area in the middle and not the area of the tails in this problem.
Answer:
38.47 m2
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = 3.5 x 3.5 x 3.14
Area = 12.25 x 3.14
Area = 38.465 --> 38.47m2
Hope that helps!
