Answers:

  • a) Stratified random sampling, or simply stratified sampling. Each group individually is known as a stratum. The plural is strata. The key here is that each stratum is sampled, though we don't pick everyone from every stratum. We randomly select from each unit to have them represent their unit. Think of it like house of representative members that go to congress. We have members from every state, but  Be sure not to mix this up with cluster sampling. Cluster sampling is where we break the population into groups or clusters, then we randomly select a few clusters in which every individual from those clusters is part of the sample.
  • b) Simple random sampling (SRS). This is exactly what it sounds like. We're randomly generating numbers to help determine who gets selected. Think of it like a lottery. A computer is useful to make sure this process is quick, efficient and unbiased as possible. Though numbers in a box or a hat work just as well.

For each of the methods mentioned, they aren't biased since they have randomness built into their processes.

What is the equation of a line passing through the point (a, b) and having a slope of b?
andreev551 [17]
The equation of a line that passes thruogh the point (x1,y1) and has a slope of m is
y-y1=m(x-x1)

so
passing through (a,b) and having slope of b is
y-b=b(x-a)

If the same BLANK number is multiplied to each side of a true inequality, the inequality sign is reversed to make the resulting
Maurinko [17]
Answer: Negative
If the same negative number is multiplied to each side of a true inequality, then the inequality sign flips to make the new inequality true as well

Example:
Take 1 < 5 and multiply both sides by -2 and we get -2 > -10. The "less than" sign flips to "greater than" since -2 < -10 is false. The value of -10 is further to the left of -2 so -10 is smaller in value. The negative basically takes the complete opposite which is why the flip must happen.

This sign flip rule does not happen if you multiply both sides by a positive number.

Can someone please help me (Math)
Ratling [72]

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a triangle, all interior angles add up to 180 so:

57 + 73 + 3x + 17 = 180

3x + 147 = 180

3x = 180 - 147

3x = 33

x = 11
