Answer:

Number of trout caught by Bill = 16 trout

Number of trout caught by Steve = 30 trout

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of trout caught = 46

Number of trout caught by Steve = Number of trout caught by Bill + 14

Find:

Number of trout caught by Steve

Number of trout caught by Bill

Computation:

Assume;

Number of trout caught by Bill = a

Number of trout caught by Steve = a + 14

So,

Number of trout caught by Steve + Number of trout caught by Bill = Total number of trout caught

a + a + 14 = 46

2a = 46 - 14

2a = 32

a = 16

Number of trout caught by Bill = 16 trout

Number of trout caught by Steve = a + 14

Number of trout caught by Steve = 16 + 14

Number of trout caught by Steve = 30 trout

Arturiano [62]

Incomplete Question:

The content of the pie chart is as follows:

<em>Hamsters  = 9% ; Snakes  = 10% ; Cats  = 23% </em>

<em> Birds  = 21% ;  Dogs  = 26% ;  Fish  = 11%</em>

<em></em>

Answer:

The number of citizens who chose cat or fish is 47,600

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of citizens = 140,000

Required

Determine the number of those that chose fish or cats

First, we need to calculate the percentage of those whose pets are either cats or fish

Percentage = Cat + Fish

Substitute 23% for cat and 11% for fish

Percentage = 23\% + 11\%

Percentage = 34\%

Next, is to multiply the calculated percentage by the number of citizens

Cat\ or\ Fish = Percentage * Number\ of\ Citizens

Cat\ or\ Fish = 34\% * 140000

Cat\ or\ fish = 47600

<em>Hence, the number of citizens who chose cat or fish is 47,600</em>

inysia [295]

Using concepts of <u>sample and population</u>, it is found that the sample variance is representative of 362 and 5530 customers ages, option D.

------------------------

In sampling, the <u>information is taken from a sample</u>, and is used to <u>estimate it for the whole population</u>.

  • In this problem, we have a sample of 362 and a population of 5530 customers.
  • The sample variance s^2 is calculated from the sample, and used as an estimate for the population variance. Thus, it can be said that it represents both 362 and 5530 customers, and the correct option is D.
