A certain organization wants to know the opinion of the adult residents, 18 years of age or older, of Johnson City about banning

smoking in all public restaurants. Specifically, they want to know what proportion of those adults are in favor of banning smoking in all public restaurants. They organize a survey and select a simple random sample of 200 adult residents and ask them "Do you think that smoking should be banned from all public restaurants?" In the sample, 140 people answered "yes." What is the population of interest in this case?

Answer:

The population of interest is adults, 18 years old of older, who reside in Johnson city.

This population consists in the entirety of the people who fulfill those characteristcs. For example, if 1 million people 18 years of age or older reside in Johnson city, then the population of interest is 1 million people.

The 200 hundred people surveyed is a sample. Statistically, many things about a population can be inferred from a sample thanks to the central limit theorem, which states that if a population has a normal distribution (most populations do), then, its characteristics can be approximately described through sampling a small but representative subset of that population.

Deer consume 10,000 kg of grass per month, and their secondary production is 2,000 kg per month. if their assimilation efficienc
iris [78.8K]
Assimilation efficiency quantifies the ratio between the organism's used energy for growth and production of new cells and tissues, and others. 

We let x be the amount of substance assimilated. 

                          AE = x / 10,000

From the given, AE is equal to 0.5. Substituting,

                          0.5 = x/10,000
                              x = 5,000

Production efficiency on the other hand is the ratio of the amount of substance used for production compared to the assimilation. Mathematically,
 
                                       PE = 2,000 / x = 2,000/5,000

                                             PE = 0.4

This is equivalent to a percentage of 40%.

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

The company's loss on the contract is $750.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Future Contract of 15,000 pounds frozen concentrate:

March 2018 orange juice futures price = 120 cents per pounds

December 2016, the futures price = 140 cents

December 2017, the futures price = 110 cents

February 2018, the futures price = 125 cents

Loss on futures contract = (125 - 120) * 15,000 = $750

b) This futures contract for frozen concentrate is a contract between two parties where both parties agree to sell and buy 15,000 pounds of frozen concentrate at a predetermined price of 120 cents per pound in March 2018, although the contract was entered into in September 2016.
