Step-by-step explanation:

Pam and Erin want the gardens to be proportional.

<em>proprtional</em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>equal</em><em> </em>

Pams garden has a length of 16 and width of 12. To find the area of Pam's garden multiply the length by the width.

<em>16</em><em>×</em><em>12</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>192</em><em> </em>

Now that we know the area of Pam's garden, we can set up and equation for Erin's garden. Since they have to be equal we know that Erin's garden should equal 192. Thus we solve for the length by dividing the width from the total.

<em>192</em><em>÷</em><em>21</em><em>=</em><em>9.14</em>

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

For this case the population represent all the professional athletes in the researcher city and we can assume that the sample size for tis population is N =982 and represent all the individuals of interest for the study and the parameter of interest is the proportion of athletes who believe that the enforcement of safety measures needs to be completely overhauled p.

In order to estimate te parameters of the population the researcher select a sample of 400 professional athletes and just 86 of them returns the questionnaire sent. So then the real sample is the n =86 people who return the info, because the other people are part of the non response rate, and from this sample she found that the proportion of athletes who believe that the enforcement of safety measures needs to be completely overhauled is \hat p=0.76.

What is the value of z in the equation 2(4z − 9 − 7) = 166 − 46?
kumpel [21]
Hi there!

2(4z - 9 - 7) = 166 - 46
let's make this a little more simpler...

2(4z - 16) = 120

use distributive property.
multiply 2 and 4z , 2 and -16.
8z - 32 = 120

add 32 on both sides to isolate the variable

8z = 152

divide both sides by 8...

z = 19

So your answer is A. 19

Hope this helped!! :)
