Answer:
The population parameter of this study is the population mean.
Step-by-step explanation:
A population parameter is a numerical measure representing a certain characteristic of the population. For example, population mean, population variance, population proportion, and so on.
The population parameter is computed using all the values of the population.
The population parameter can be estimated using the sample statistic. If the value of the population parameter is not known, then a random sample of large size, say <em>n</em> ≥ 30 can be selected from the population and the statistic value can be computed. This statistic value is considered as the point estimate of the parameter. It is also known as the unbiased estimator of the parameter.
In this case the survey involved sampling of 1500 Americans to estimate the mean dollar amount that Americans spent on health care in the past year.
The sample selected is used to compute the sample mean dollar amount that Americans spent on health care.
So, the population parameter of this study is the population mean.
Answer:
360 inch
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Converting
6inch = 6inch
5ft = 60inch
Step 2: Finding the area
Area of a rectangle = L x B
A = 6 x 60
A = 360inch
A = a^2
112 = a^2
sqrt 112 = a
sqrt 16 * sqrt 7 = a
4 sqrt 7 = a
so 4 sqrt 7 is the length of each side
Answer:
yards = feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph is a straight line passing through the origin with equation
y = mx ( m is the slope )
Calculate slope using gradient formula
m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 2) ← 2 points on the line
m = = =
the x- axis is feet and the y-axis is yards, hence
yards = feet
Answer:
a. 1 263 888
b. 130 701
c. 72 years
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The differential equation applies here.
Let the quantity increase for a certain time be given by Q(t)
Every unity of time, the quantity increases by so that after the time t, the quantity remaining will be given by:
In a similar manner, the quantity R(t) decreases at a rate given by the following expression:
and after the time , t the quantity of R remaining will be given by:
a. To find the population of humans in 1953
1993 - 1953 = 40 years = t
Q(40) = Q×
Q = 1 263 888.44
≈ 1 263 888
b. For bear population in 1993:
t = 40
R(40) =
b = 130 700. 889
≈130 701
c. time taken for black bear population number less than 100 is given by:
130 = 11000×
solving using natural logarithms gives t = 72.72666
= 72 years Ans
