Subjects in the population are sampled by a random process, using either a random number generator or a random number table, so that each person remaining in the population has the same probability of being selected for the sample.

How to Estimate a Population Total from a Simple Random Sample

1. This lesson describes how to estimate a population total, given survey data from a simple random sample. ...

2. Sample mean = x = Σx / n.

3. Population total = t = Nx.

4. where N is the number of observations in the population, and x is the sample mean.

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. ... In this case, the population is all 250 employees, and the sample is random because each employee has an equal chance of being chosen.

Random sampling is a part of the sampling technique in which each sample has an equal probability of being chosen. A sample chosen randomly is meant to be an unbiased representation of the total population.

what is the force needed to move a boy and his wheelchair with a combined mass of 30kg at 0.4 meters per square second
vichka [17]

Answer:

The force needed to move a boy and his wheelchair with a combined mass of 30kg at 0.4 meters per square second is 12 newton.

Explanation:

  • According to Newton's second law based motion "the moving object's acceleration is based upon two terms - one is the total force acting upon that object and the other one is the net mass of the object."
  • In mathematical term, F=ma. where F= force, m= mass, a= acceleration.
  • So, by performing the calculation, \bold{\mathrm{F}=30 \times 0.4 \mathrm{N}=12 \mathrm{N}}
  • 12N force will move the boy along with the wheel chair.

I believe you meant to say is this mistake called a base pair and if that is your question then no. it would be called Mutation. But you can double check that answer.
