Answer: Choice D</h3>
To calculate a point estimate, we need to know the sample size.
===========================================================
Explanation:
Let's go through the answer choices.
- A) False. A sample statistic could equal to the population parameter. It won't always happen, but it might happen sometimes (in rare cases).
- B) False. Point estimates are only defined for populations. They estimate a population parameter. For example, the sample mean xbar is a point estimate of the population mean (mu).
- C) False. In practice, we will hardly know anything about the population. This includes the population size. The goal of statistics is to measure population parameters by using sample statistics as estimation methods.
- D) True. We can easily calculate the sample size because it is relatively much smaller compared to the population. Plus, when selecting the sample, the sample size is often pre-determined to some set number. The sample size will help us determine things like the sample mean and the sample proportion.
First problem: I believe YW: 34
ZX: 17
VX: 34. I have a pic attached but it probably doesn’t make much sense :)
The perimeter is 114 square feet. To solve this, first you divide 680 by 17, which equals 40. So the length is 40. The formula for perimeter is 2L+2W. This means you take the length and multiply it by 2, and do the same for the width, then add them together. So the equation would be:
2(40)+2(17)=Perimeter
80+34=Perimeter
The final answer is 114 square feet.
Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sam is incorrect because if you look at the original problem, you'll see that he has missed the negative sign!
90 / 9 does equal 10, but 90 / -9 equals -10.
The only way to get a positive answer is if both the divisor and dividend are positive or if they are both negative.
Thus, the correct answer should be -10.
