Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

To estimate population proportion from a sample, we must ensure that the sample data is random. Though a simple random sample of college students from a particular college was used as the sample data. However, selection of the college should have been randomized as well, a stratified random sample would have been a better sampling method whereby certain colleges are selected based on region or other criteria and then a random sample of it's statistics students selected. The sample proportion Obtian from a sample of this nature will be more representative of the population proportion of all college statistic student.

AYUDAAA porfavorrrr primera urna 6 bolas verdes y 3 rojas segunda urna 3 verdes, 3 blancas y 3 rojas tercera urna 6 verdes, 1 bl
marin [14]

We have the following information:

first urn: 6 green balls and 3 red ones

total: 6 + 3 = 9

second urn: 3 green, 3 white and 3 red

total: 3 + 3 + 3 = 9

third urn: 6 green, 1 white and 2 red

total: 6 + 1 + 2 = 9

a) A green ball is more likely to be obtained, since there are more green balls than red balls, which makes the probability higher.

b) probability of drawing a green, red and white ball.

first urn:

green = 6/9 = 66.66%

red = 3/9 = 33.33%

white = 0/9 = 0%

second urn:

green = 3/9 = 33.33%

red = 3/9 = 33.33%

white = 3/9 = 33.33%

third urn:

green = 6/9 = 66.66%

red = 2/9 = 22.22%

white = 1/9 = 11.11%

c) it would be chosen where the probability of drawing green would be the highest, which means that it would be possible both in the first and in the third ballot box, the probability is equal 66.66%

d) without a green ball, the third ballot box would look like this:

5 green balls, 2 red balls and 1 white ball, with a total of 8.

The probability of drawing would be:

green = 5/8 = 62.5%

red = 2/8 = 25%

white = 1/8 = 12.5%

lyudmila [28]

It lies between 5 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Two consecutive numbers are numbers that come after each other:

x , x + 1 are consecutive numbers.

3 \sqrt{3} = 3√3 = 5.19615242271

Therefore, from the above calculation, we can see that square root of 3 is a number that is between consecutive numbers 5 and 6

2. What is the effective annual rate of an investment that pays 6% for 5 years, compounded semiannually?
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

effective annual rate is 6.16 %

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

rate = 6 % = 0.06

time 5 year = 10 semi annually

to find out

effective annual rate

solution

we know formula for annual effective rate of interest is

rate of  interest = (1+ r/n)^{n} -1

put here all value

rate of interest = (1+ 0.06/10)^{10} -1

rate of  interest = (1+ 0.06/10)^{10} -1

rate of interest = 0.061646

so effective annual rate is 6.16 %
