Not defective : 25 - 3 = 22
probability of not defective : 22/25

22/25 × 100% = 88%

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A. distribute the X to the X in the parenthesis and you get 2x. Then distribute the X to the -7 in the parenthesis and you get -7x. Combine like terms so that would be 2x-7x and you get -5x.

C. distribute the 6x to the X in the parenthesis and you get 7x. Then distribute the 6x to the 2 in parenthesis and you get 8x. Combine like terms so that would be 7x+8x and you get 15x.

E. Not sure on this one, sorry.

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theory baby! Okay so the Pythagorean theory is a² + b² = c² so lets draw a triangle and label our sides. So we know 8² + 15² = c² so I'm going to find the square root of all of our numbers. We get 64 + 225 = c² so then add 64 + 225 = 289 then I take the square root of 289 which equals 17 . This answer also makes sense because out hypotenuse should always be bigger then the legs.

I'm pretty sure thats right, Hope this helps.

A public opinion poll in Ohio wants to determine whether registered voters in the state approve of a measure to ban smoking in a

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

This is an example of "a stratified sample".

<u>Answer:</u> Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

A group-based sampling process that can be divided into subpopulations. For statistical studies, testing of each subpopulation separately may be useful if subpopulations within a total population differ, thus understood as "Stratified sampling".

One might, for instance, divide a adults sample into subgroups in terms of age, like 18 to 29, 30 to 39, 40 to 49, 50–59 etc with decided age difference as needed. A stratified sample may be more accurate than an easy sample of the similar size by random. As it offers more accuracy, a stratified sample sometimes involves a smaller sample, saving money.

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (-1,-7) and (-9,-2)?

nalin [4]

Answer: m = -5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation for slope is rise over run, also known as:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

From the points (x, y), we can get all the variables we need.

(-1, -7) gives us x1 = -1 and y1 = -7

(-9, -2) gives us x2 = -9 and y2 = -2

If we plug all the values in, we get:

m = (-2 - (-7))/(-9 - (-1))

m = (-2 + 7)/(-9 + 1) the negatives cancel

m = (5)/(-8)

m = -5/8

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Regression Line is given by,

y = 22.909 + 0.209 x

The course grade of a student in the course who spent an average of 103 minutes in the course each week is: 22.909 + 0.209 × 103 = 44.436

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of Regression equation is of the form of:

y = a + bx

where, a is intercept and b is slope

The formula for a and b is given by,

$a=\frac{\sum Y \sum X^2-\sum X \sum XY}{n\sum X^2-(\sum X)^2}\\ and, b = \frac{n\sum XY -\sum X \sum Y}{n\sum X^2-(\sum X)^2}$

Here, ∑X = 1149.8, ∑Y = 377.2, ∑XY = 93115.95, ∑X² = 320246.72

Thus, a = 22.909

and b = 0.209

Thus, Regression Line is given by,

y = 22.909 + 0.209 x

Thus, The course grade of a student in the course who spent an average of 103 minutes in the course each week is: 22.909 + 0.209 × 103 = 44.436

Now plotting these line:
