Answer:
No, a convenience sample was taken.Therefore, the sample may not be representative of all college students in terms of number of hours studied per week.
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the important conditions required in other to estimate the mean of the population from the confidence interval. Requires that the data must be a random Sample. This is to ensure that sample values are not biased and as such are representative of the larger group of data.
However, in the scenario described above, the sample chose. Are friend's of the student, this makes the data lack randomness as those who aren't friends to the student do not stand a chance of being selected. The sampling procedure employed is called convenience sampling.

if we were to solve both equations for "y", we'd get

notice, the 1st equation is really the 2nd in disguise, since both lines are just pancaked on top of each other, every point in the lines is a solution or an intersection, and since both go to infinity, well, there you have it.
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>Square root of y^2 = y
so
</span><span>Square root of y^2 times y^2 = y * y^2 = y^3
answer
y^3</span>
