Answer: The area of rectangle WXYZ is 18 square inches
Step-by-step explanation: Since both rectangles are similar, then lines AD and BC has a common ratio with lines WZ and XY. If line line AD is 10 inches, and line XY is 5 inches, then the ratio of similarity is given as
Ratio = 10/5
Ratio = 2/1 (or 2:1)
However rectangle ABCD has its area as 70 square inches, which means the other side is given as
Area = L x W
70 = 10 x W
70/10 = W
7 = W
Therefore the width of the other rectangle is determined as,
10/5 = 7/W
10W = 5 x 7
10W = 35
Divide both sides of the equation by 10
W = 3.5
Having calculated the width of the other rectangle as 3.5, the area is now determined as
Area = L x W
Area = 5 x 3
Area = 17.5
Rounded off to the nearest integer, the area equals 18 square inches
Answer:
The population is the set of all the elements. And the sample is a subset of the population.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population is the set of all the elements. And the sample is a subset of the population.
The sample is used to make conclusions regarding the population.
A poll is conducted from the target population to determine the general opinions of the individuals of that population.
The basic method of polling is to select a few thousand individuals from the population and ask their opinions on a certain subject.
The poll will result usually in two values, the proportion of individual in favor and the proportion of individual not in favor.
Consider the example below.
The polling done to determine the favorability of the new brand of tea. The polling was done using a few hundred members of the tea drinking community of a country. The poll resulted as follows:
In favor = 72%
Not in favor = 28%
The population is the entire tea drinking community of a country.
In this case the sample consist of few 100 people of the tea drinking community of a country.
