Answer: D: A random sample of 1000 people from each of the 50 states

Step-by-step explanation:

So to get the best results we want to eliminate as many sources of bias that we can so lets go through the answers

A: A: A random sample of 1000 people from 10 local clothing stores. This is bias because if we choose from people shopping at a store they might like to shop more than usual

B: A random sample of 1000 people from his city. This can't possibly represent all the people in the U.S. because the sample is only from his city so we can't choose this answer

C: A random sample of people from his state. Again this doesn't represent the U.S. and also we don't have a number for the sample size

D. D: A random sample of 1000 people from each of the 50 states. This answer is good because we have a sample size, its random, and it represents the 50 states

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

.Lower quartile = 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearranging the data from lowest to highest.

2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 , 10, 15

First finding the median to make it easier to find the lower quartile.

median : 6 and 7 but right now they're irrelevant so we don't honestly need to work that out.

The lower quartile would be 3 and 4

3+4= 7 divide by 2 = 3.5 is your lower quartile

1. What does it mean that Nikoleta is in the 10th percentile for length and weight? Is that a desirable statistic if she was in
VladimirAG [237]

Explanation:

1. It means that Nikoleta is longer and heavier than 10% of children her age.

2. We generally expect that a change from being in the 50th percentile to the 10th percentile signifies a condition that is interfering with normal growth. That is not usually considered desirable.

You know that a rope is no more than 150 feet long. You need to cut the rope into 3 pieces.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

80 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>hey there,</em>

<em />

< We know that the rope is 3 pieces long. To make this into an equation, let's just write x + y + z = 150.

Assuming "y" is our second piece, we can tell y = 2x, because it is two times the size of the first piece, which is "x". We also know "z" (our third piece): z = 30.

We can try inputting all the things we know now. x + (2x) + 30 = 150. From here, we can find that x = 40. Since y is our second piece, y = 2x, so 2 x (40) = 80. The second piece would be 80 feet long. >
