Ann [662]

Answer:

1. Parameter because the value is a numerical measurement describing a characteristic of a population

Step-by-step explanation:

A parameter is a fixed measure which <u>describes the whole population</u> while a statistic is a <u>characteristic of a sample</u> (which is a portion of the target population).

In a study of all 1963 employees at a college, it is found that "40%" own a computer.

The study involved the entire population of employees in the college, therefore the result describes the computer owning <u>characteristics of the whole population under study</u>. It is therefore a parameter.

A rectangular piece of metal is 15 in longer than it is wide. Squares with sides 3 in long are cut from the four corners and the
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The original dimensions of the piece of metal are

Length: 36 inches

Width: 21 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the original length pf the piece of metal

y ----> the original width pf the piece of metal

we know that

x=y+15 ----> equation A

The volume of the box is equal to

V=LWH

we have

V=1,350\ in^3

L=(x-3-3)=(x-6)\ in\\W=(y-3-3)=(y-6)\ in

H=3\ in

substitute in the formula of volume

1,350=(x-6)(y-6)(3) ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

1,350=(y+15-6)(y-6)(3)

solve for y

450=(y+9)(y-6)

y^2-6y+9y-54=450\\y^2+3y-504=0

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

using a graphing tool

The solution is y=21

Find the value of x

x=21+15=36

therefore

The original dimensions of the piece of metal are

Length: 36 inches

Width: 21 inches
