Answer:

6.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

please find attached the question

the length of the apothem can be determined using Pythagoras theorem

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a = length

b = base = 9.4/2 = 4.7cm

c = hypotenuse = 8cm

a² + 4.7² = 8²

a² + 22.09 = 64

a² = 41.91

find the square root

a = 6.5 cm

the tenth is the first number after the decimal place. To convert to the nearest tenth, look at the number after the tenth (the hundredth). If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the tenth figure. If this is not the case, add zero

Suppose a researcher is testing a new vaccine on mice to see how well it prevents the flu virus. The lab has 1000 mice available

AfilCa [17]

Solution :

Sampling may be defined as the technique of selecting the individual members or the subset of the population to make a statistical inferences and estimates the characteristics of the entire population.

There are several sampling methods. This includes : Systematic sampling, clustered sampling, stratified sampling, quota sampling, judgement sampling, random sampling, convenience sampling and many more.

In the context, the sampling methods for each of the descriptions are :

a). The researcher use computer program to randomly choose a sample of 30 mice of the 1000 mice for using her study

--- Simple Random

b). The researcher chose the 1st 30 mice as she can reach the door to the mouse room

--- Convenience sampling

c). The mice those whose are kept in the cages on 10 various shelves in mouse room. The researcher or the experimenter chose the three mice from each shelve.

---- Stratified sampling

d). Each of the cage have 5 mice and the researcher randomly chooses 6 cages for her study

----- Cluster sampling

e). The researcher generates the list of the identification numbers which has been sorted from the smallest to the largest. The researcher randomly picks 1 mouse form the list and selects every 4 mouse until the researcher has 30 mice.

---- Systematic sampling

A. x-int:-0.5,y-int:1 B. x-int:0.5,y-int:1 C. x-int:-0.5,y-int:-1 D. x-int:1,y-int:0.5

hodyreva [135]

The correct answer is: [D]: " x-int : 1 , y-int: 0.5 " .

The "x-intercept" refers to the point(s) at which the the graph of a function (which is a "line", in this case) cross(es) the "y-axis".

In other words, what is (are) the point(s) of the graph at which "x = 0" ?

By examining the graph, we see that when " x = 0" ; y is equal to: "1" .

So; the "x-intercept" is at point: "(0, 1)" ; or, we can simply say that the
"x-intercept" is: "1" .
