Answer:
With the given margin of error its is possible that candidate A wins and candidate B loses, and it is also possible that candidate B wins and candidate A loses. Therefore, the poll cannot predict the winner and this is why race was too close to call a winner.
Step-by-step explanation:
A group conducted a poll of 2083 likely voters.
The results of poll indicate candidate A would receive 47% of the popular vote and and candidate B would receive 44% of the popular vote.
The margin of error was reported to be 3%
So we are given two proportions;
A = 47%
B = 44%
Margin of Error = 3%
The margin of error shows by how many percentage points the results can deviate from the real proportion.
Case I:
A = 47% + 3% = 50%
B = 44% - 3% = 41%
Candidate A wins
Case II:
A = 47% - 3% = 44%
B = 44% + 3% = 47%
Candidate B wins
As you can see, with the given margin of error its is possible that candidate A wins and candidate B loses, and it is also possible that candidate B wins and candidate A loses. Therefore, the poll cannot predict the winner and this is why race was too close to call a winner.
7a + 6c + 9a - 15c
-- Look for all the 'a's 7a, 9a
-- Addum up 16a
-- Look for all the 'c's 6c, -15c
-- Addum up -9c
-- Write the results 16a - 9c
Answers:
What is the ratio? 120:2
What is the unit rate? 60:1
What is the rate? 60 jumping jacks per minute
===================================================
Further Explanation:
To find the ratio of jumping jacks to minutes, you just write the two values 120 and 2 separated by a colon. That's how we get 120:2 as our first answer.
--------
Once we have 120:2, we divide both parts by 2 to get 60:1
120/2 = 60
2/2 = 1
The reason why we do this is so that the "2 minutes" turns into "1 minute". A unit ratio has the time value in unit increments so we can see how many jumping jacks Samuel can do. Writing "60:1" means "60 jumping jacks in 1 minute"
-------
Saying "60 jumping jacks in 1 minute" is the same as saying "60 jumping jacks per minute", which is similar to a car's speed of something like 60 miles per hour. The unit "X per Y" is the template for speed, where X is the number of items you get done and Y is the unit of time. In this case, X = 60 jumping jacks and Y = 1 minute.
Answer: r = -5/18
Step-by-step explanation: You solve -3(1+6r)+12=14
-3-18r+12=14 (When distributed)
-18r+9=14
-18r=5
r=-5/18
