Answer:
The targeted population is USA residents who died of heart disease.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to this case, "the death rates due to heart disease among the smokers and nonsmokers are compared to see if smoking causes heart disease." This implies that the study targets those USA residents who died of heart disease to find out if the cause of death can be traced to heart disease caused by smoking or not. The main concentration for the study defines the targeted population. It is this group of residents who died of heart disease that is the population of interest. This means that the targeted population is a certain group of the population that share similar characteristics, especially death resulting from heart disease caused by smoking.
Answer:
(9, 6)
Step-by-step explanation:
the given points are
(3, 2)
(6, 4)
so, can you see, how the sequence continues ?
I see immediately that for every 3 additional units of x we add 2 units of y.
so, yes, the next point in the sequence is
(6 + 3, 4 + 2) = (9, 6).
so, this point (or ordered pair) follows the same ratio or proportional relationship between x and y as the points already in the graph.
in other words, they are on the same line following the same slope ("y coordinate change / x coordinate change" when going from one point on the line to another).
Answer:
x= 16
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you want to distribute each side! (you're gonna wanna learn this because you will be having to do it for the next 3 years no joke it sucks)
7(x+2) can be distributed as 7x+14 after multiplying 7 times x and 7 times 2, and 6(x+5) can be distributed as 6x+30.
Now, you have to get the x on one side to solve for x (so like x=__).
To do this, look at the equation as of now. 7x+14=6x+30.
We can minus 14 and bring that to the right, and minus 6x and bring that to the left to separate the x's and the regular numbers.
Now we have 16=x (or x=16).
Answer:
5in by 5in by 5in
Step-by-step explanation:
We are not told wat to find but we can as well find the dimension of the prism that will minimize its surface area.
Given
Volume = 125in³
Formula
V = w²h ..... 1
S = 2w²+4wh ..... 2
w is the side length of the square base
h is the height of the prism
125 = w²h
h = 125/w² ..... 3
Substitute eqn 3 into 2 as shown
S = 2w²+4wh
S = 2w²+4w(125/w²)
S = 2w²+500/w
To minimize the surface area, dS/dw = 0
dS/dw =4w-500/w²
0= 4w-500/w²
Multiply through by w²
0 = 4w³-500
-4w³ = -500
w³ = 500/4
w³ =125
w = cuberoot(125)
w = 5in
Get the height
125 =w²h
125 = 25h
h = 125/25
h = 5in
Hence the dimension of the prism is 5in by 5in by 5in
