Imagine that you are planning to estimate the price of the average book at your college bookstore. The bookstore carries 13,000

titles, but you plan to sample only 200 books. You will select a sample of 200 books, record the price of each book, and use the average of the 200 books to estimate the average price of the 13,000 books in the bookstore. Questions: What is the sample in this study, and what is the population

Answer: "13,000 books" represents the population.

"200" books represents the sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A population is the term that denotes a whole large possible group of individuals, objects, events or measurements.
  • A subset of population is known as ample.
  • When population is too large to the researcher  , then it uses sample to represent the entire population.

Here,  "13,000 books" represents the population.

"200" books represents the sample which is a subset of 13,000 books.

The diameter of a circular tablecloth is 72 inches. Find the area and circumference. Use 3.14 as an approximation for pi.
nalin [4]

Answer:

Part 1) The area is A=4,069.44\ in^{2}

Part 2) The circumference is C=226.08\ in

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area

we know that

The area of a circle (circular tablecloth) is equal to

A=\pi r^{2}

we have

r=72/2=36\ in ------> the radius is half the diameter

\pi =3.14

substitute

A=(3.14)(36)^{2}

A=4,069.44\ in^{2}

step 2

Find the circumference

we know that

The circumference of a circle (circular tablecloth) is equal to

C=\pi D

we have

D=72\ in

\pi =3.14

substitute

C=(3.14)(72)

C=226.08\ in

A lamp post with a height of 12 ft casts a shadow of 6 ft. A fire hydrant near it casts a shadow that is 1.5 ft long. How tall i
alex41 [277]

Answer:

3ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Height of lamp, h=12ft

Height of shadow, l=6ft

Height of shadow of hydrant, l'=1.5ft

Let height of hydrant=h'

We have to find the height of fire hydrant.

All right triangles are similar

When two triangles are similar then, the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal.

Using the property

\frac{h}{h'}=\frac{l}{l'}

\frac{12}{h'}=\frac{6}{1.5}

h'=\frac{12\times 1.5}{6}

h'=3ft

Hence, the height of fire hydrant=3 ft

Of his 94 compact discs, Raul plans to donate 17 to the thrift store. To the nearest tenth of a percent, what percent is this?
Masteriza [31]
For this case we can solve the problem by means of the following rule of three:
 94 --------> 100%
 17 --------> x
 Clearing x we have:
 x = (17/94) * (100)
 x = 18,08510638%
 To the nearest tenth of a percent:
 x = 18.1%
 Answer:
 
This is 18.1% of his compact discs.

Somebody please assist me in answering this math question.
Sphinxa [80]
Firstly look at the options carefully and we will get to know that two answer options are incorrect because 2 of them are representing AT MOST SIGN which we don't need. So in that way Options B and D are eliminated.

So Now we are left with 2 options A and C. Lets figure it out.
We know that Carlos has 5 complete set with 4 individual figures and josh has 3 complete sets with 14 individual figures.
So lets write in the numerical language:-
let us assume that complete sets are X.
ATQ,
5x + 4 ≥ 3x + 14
subtracting 3x from both sides.
5x -3x + 4 ≥ 14
2x + 4 ≥ 14
subtracting 4 from both sides
2x ≥ 14 - 4
2x ≥ 10
dividing both sides by 2
x ≥ 5 Answer
So correct answer option is C

Industrial chemicals are stored in 55-gallon drums. The radius of the drum is 12 inches, and the height is 32 inches. what is th
Drupady [299]

Answer:

The surface area of the drum is 3317.5218 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Drum's have a cylindrical form, therefore in order to calculate its surface area we need to apply the correct formula, as shown below:

area = 2*\pi*r^2 + 2*\pi*r*h

Where the first term of the sum is the area of the lid and bottom of the drum and the second term is the area of the walls of the drum, r is the radius and h is the height. Applying the data from the problem, we have:

area = 2*\pi*12^2 +2*\pi*12*32\\\\area = 3317.5218 \text{ square inches}

The surface area of the drum is 3317.5218 square inches.
