The best estimate of the population means is always the sample mean. We have the sample values, using them we can find the sample mean.
The sum of the sampled rates = 248
Sample Size = 10
Mean value of the sample = Sum of Sample Rate/Sample Size
So,
Mean of the sample = 248/10 = 24.8
Therefore, we can say that the best estimate for the population mean is 24.8
        
                    
             
        
        
            
            
                Given A = {a, e, i, o, u} and B = {a, l, g, e, b, r}, find A ∪ B.

Ahh..this is sets topics - A U B = all the elements found in A and B. But do note, do not repeat the elements if it is the same. And if the question were to ask : n(AUB) = total number of elements found in A and B.
        
                    
             
        
        
        
C(a,b), because the x-coordinate( first coordinate) is a (seeing as it is situated directly above point B, which also has an x-coordinate of a) and the y-coordinate ( second coordinate) is b (seeing as it is situated on the same horizontal level as point D, which also has a y-coordinate of b)
the length of AC can be calculated with the theorem of Pythagoras:
length AB = a - 0 = a
length BC = b - 0 = b
seeing as the length of AC is the longest, it can be calculated by the following formula: 
It is called "Pythagoras' Theorem" and can be written in one short equation:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (^ means to the power of by the way)
in this case, A and B are lengths AB and BC, so lenght AC can be calculated as the following:
a^2 + b^2 = (length AC)^2
length AC = √(a^2 + b^2)
Extra information: Seeing as the shape of the drawn lines is a rectangle, lines AC and BD have to be the same length, so BD is also √(a^2 + b^2). But that is also stated in the assignment!
        
                    
             
        
        
        
The slope of first line is m 1= ( 1 - 0 ) / ( - 2 - ( - 6 ) );
m = 1 / 4 ;
Because the second line is perpendicular to the first line, m2 * m1 = - 1 ;
m2 * ( 1 / 4 ) = -1;
 m2 = - 4 ;
The equation of the second line is : y - 3 = ( - 4 )( x - 2 );
y - 3 = -4x + 8 ;
y = -4x + 11.
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
using Pythagoras rule, 16^2 -7^2 =a^2
so 256-49 = 297.
