Which of the following is NOT a measure ofâ center? Choose the correct answer below.

irina [24]

Answer:

Option B) census

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the measure of center.

The measure of center is also known as the measure of central tendency.

The measure of central tendency for a data is given by

Mean
Median
Mode

It help us to identify the central position of data in different ways.

Thus, out of the given option census is not a measure of center.

Option B) census

Polly buys 14 cupcakes for a party. The bakery puts them into boxes that hold 4 cupcakes each.

Temka [501]

Answer:

Part a) The number of boxes needed will be 4

part b) The fraction of the box that is empty is $\frac{1}{2}$

Part c) Are needed 2 cupcakes to fill the last box

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) How many boxes will be needed for Polly to bring all the cupcakes to the party?

To find out the number of boxes needed, divide the total number of cupcakes by 4 (maximum number of cupcakes that fit in each box).

so

$\frac{14}{4}=3.5\ box$

Round up

The number of boxes needed will be 4

Part b) If the bakery completely fills as many boxes as possible, what fraction of the last box is empty?

we know that

The maximum number of cupcakes per box is 4

The first three boxes have 4 cupcakes

The last box has

$14-3(4)=2\ cupcakes$

The fraction of the box that is empty is equal to the number of cupcakes missing to fill the box divided by the cupcake capacity of the box

$\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$

Part c) How many more cupcakes are needed to fill this box

Subtract the number of cupcakes in the box from the cupcake capacity of the box

The last box has 2 cupcakes

The cupcake capacity of the box is 4

so

$4-2=2\ cupcakes$

therefore

Are needed 2 cupcakes to fill the last box

A simple random sample of n measurements from a population is a subset of the population selected in a manner such that which of

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

a) sample of size n from the population has an equal chance of being selected.

b) Every member of the population has an equal chance of being included in the sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple random sampling:

It is a type of probabilistic sampling.
It is an unbiased representation of population.
The probability of selection is equal for every observation.
A sample is taken in such a way that each member has an equal probability of being selected.
A simple random sample is a subset of a statistical population in which each member of the subset has an equal probability of being chosen.
Thus,the correct interpretation is given by,

a) sample of size n from the population has an equal chance of being selected.

b) Every member of the population has an equal chance of being included in the sample.

c) The simplest method of selection is used to create a representative sample.

The statement is false.

There is no pattern or technique used for selection. The selection is purely random.

d) Each subset of the population has an equal chance of being included in the sample.

The statement is false.

Each object of the population has an equal chance of being included in the sample. and not each subset.

e) Every sample of size n from the population has a proportionally weighted chance of being selected.

The given statement is false.
