We are given the steps that are laid to determine the value of x in the expression |2x -4| - 3 = 3. First step is to add 3 to both sides, then simplify, then determine x. The first incorrect step is step 1 since we add not subtract.
Answer:
c = 420t . . . . c is calories burned; t is hours riding at 15 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
There is not enough information given to write a function rule relating all the variables to calories burned. If we assume that calories are burned at the constant rate of 420 calories per hour, then total calories will be that rate multiplied by hours:
c = 420·t
where c is total calories burned by the 154-lb person, and t is hours riding at 15 mph.
___
In general, rates are related to quantities by ...
quantity = rate · time . . . . . where the rate is (quantity)/(time period)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed of plane is p and speed of the wind is w.
<u>Then we have:</u>
- 10*(p + w) = 1120 ⇒ p + w = 112
- 20*(p - w) = 1120 ⇒ p - w = 56
<u>Sum the two equations and solve for p:</u>
- p + w + p - w = 112 + 56
- 2p = 168
- p = 84
<u>Find w:</u>
- 84 + w = 112
- w = 112 - 84
- w = 28
Answer:
The correct option is d) convenience sample
Step-by-step explanation:
In statistics, we use different sampling techniques to gather a chunk of sample data from a very large population.
There are many sampling techniques and out of them one is convenience sampling.
Convenience Sampling:
The convenience sampling is defined as the sample data which is readily and conveniently available.
Examples:
1. Asking people questions at a place that is convenient for you.
2. Asking your friends or family members
3. A college student asking for student's opinion at the college who is surveying for his thesis.
In the given scenario, Kristen Ashford has list of 5,000 subscribers for Wind Surfing magazine. She chooses the first 100 of the 5,000 names, this is clearly a convenient sample since the sample is easily, readily and conveniently available.
If she had selected 100 names randomly then it would have been called random sampling but in this case, she simply selected the first 100 names for the sake of convenience therefore, it is a convenience sample.
