Answer:

x = 38

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one number = x

Let the second number = y

x - y = 20

x must be the larger of the two numbers

x = 2y + 2                               Put this equation into the equation above

2y + 2 - y = 20                       Combine

y + 2 = 20                              Subtract 2 from both sides

y = 20 - 2

y = 18

x - 18 = 20                            Add 18 to both sides

x = 38

Select the correct answer.
aleksley [76]

Answer:

$24,890.46, $25,109.59

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

n = 48, the sample size

m = $25,000, th sample mean

σ = $3000, the maximum variance

The standard deviation is

s = √σ = √(3000) = 54.772

As a rule of thumb, the range is 4 times the standard deviation. Therefore the range is

R = 4*54.772 = 219.09

Half the range is

R/2 = 219.09/2 = 109.45

The required  range is

(25000-109.45, 25000+109.45) = (24890.46, 25109.54)

Answer: $24,890.46, $25,109.54

Professor Mallory determines the distribution of students on five variables in her target population. She then uses nonprobabili
rodikova [14]

The sampling strategy she use was a quota.

Quotas are meant to establish boundaries on the number of specific goods that are allowed to be lawfully imported into the country throughout a distinct period of time. In that, quotas are similar embargoes, except quotas don´t have explicit political purposes as embargoes do.

A Fixed quota would be a maximum amount not to be surpassed, while a tariff rate surcharge allows it, but with a higher duty.
