An AP Statistics class starts a project to estimate the average number of hours a student at their high school sleeps per night. Their high school has 1200 students, and they take a sample of the first 120 students that arrive at school on a particular day. They ask each of the 120 students how many hours of sleep they got the night before and then calculate an average.

Which of the following statements is an accurate description of the elements of this survey?

(A) Population: the 120 students surveyed. Parameter of interest: the average number of hours a student at this high school sleeps per night.
(B) Sample: the 1200 students of the school. Population: all high school students in the United States. Statistic: the average number of hours a student at this high school sleeps per night
(C) Sample: the 120 students surveyed. Population: the 1200 students at the high school. Parameter of interest: the average number of hours a student at this high school sleeps per night.
(D) Sample: the 120 students surveyed. Population: the 1200 students at the high school. Statistic: The average number of hours a student at this high school sleeps per night.
(E) This is not a survey because a convenience sample was used.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To estimate the average number of hours a student their highschool sleeps per night, the students of the statistics class took as sample the first 120 students that arrived at the school on a particular day, out of the 1200 student population, and asked how many hours of sleep they got the night before.

The population of interest is the entire group of experimental units that exists in the world, in this example is the student body of the high school: 1200 students.

The sample is formed by the students that were interviewed: 120 students.

The parameter of interest is the average sleep time per night of the students in high school.

Correct answer:

(D) Sample: the 120 students surveyed. Population: the 1200 students at the high school. Statistic: The average number of hours a student at this high school sleeps per night.

B. True, but there are two other ways to find the area of a rhombus: there is the "diagonals" method and the "trigonometry" method.

C. False, the area of a rhombus is not less than the area of a parallelogram because it will depend on the diagonals.

D. False, a parallelogram is not always a rhombus because the dimensions and other attributes of a parallelogram may vary while the rhombus will remain equal for all aspects.

E. True, if you use the base times height formula but if you used any of the other formulas this would be false.

Answers

Answer:

D. 96

F. 32

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality 3x ≥ 96, means that x and 3 must be multiplied to get a product that is greater than 96.  So to figure this out, you must plug in the numbers given for x, like so:

3x ≥ 96

A. 3(31) ≥ 96

     93 ≥ 96                            This is incorrect since 93 is not greater than 96

A tip that makes this easier is that, you can see that 31 multiplied by 3 is 93, which is only a couple numbers off 96, so all numbers after 31 will result in a product greater than 96. For example:

D. 3(96) ≥ 96

    288 ≥ 96                             This inequality is correct

F. 3(32) ≥ 96

   96 ≥ 96                        

The inequality sign states that the number must be either greater or equal to 96, which it is.

The height of a triangle is 18 inches. Find the length of the base if the area of the triangle is 63 square inches

Answers

Answer:

7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is found by

A = 1/2 bh

We know the height is 18 and the area is 63

63 = 1/2 (b)(18)

63 = 9b

Divide each side by 9

63/9 = 9b/9

7 = b

The base is 7 inches

Answer:

7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = ½ base × height

63 = ½ × base × 18

63 = 9 × base

base = 7 inches

a businesswoman sells a bag for $52.32, thereby making a profit of 9% on the cost of her. calculate the selling price the businesswoman should ask in order to make 20% profit​

Answers

Answer: $57.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A businesswoman sells a bag for $52.32.

Let cuurent selling price : SP = $52.32

As they are making 9% profit now.

That means SP= Cp +0.09 CP , where Cp is the cost price of bag.

i..e [tex]52.32=Cp(1+0.09) \ \text{[Substituted value of SP in LHS and taking Cp common outside in RHS]}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow\ 52.32=Cp(1.09)\Rightarrow\ CP=\dfrac{52.32}{1.09}=48[/tex]

i..e Cost price of bag = 48

Selling price to gain 20% profit = Cp+0.20CP

= CP(1+0.20)

=48 (1.20)

= 57.6

Hence, the  selling price the businesswoman should ask in order to make 20% profit​ = $57.6

Step-by-step explanation:

There are so many points on the graph whose coordinates are impossible to estimate. Look for two "nice" points--points with integer coordinates. The line passes through (-2, 0) and (3, 4).

Slope = rise / run. It's the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change as you move from one point on the line to another.

Moving from (-2, 0) to (3, 4), the vertical change is 4 - 0 = 4.

The horizontal change is 3 - (-2) = 5.

Kate bought 30 shares of Stock XYZ at the close price of $9.67. She bought
30 more shares a year later at the price of $11.12. If her broker charges $18
for each transaction, how much money did Kate spend in total to make these
purchases?
O A. $308.10
B. $351.60
C. $659.70
O D. $623.70

Answers

the answer is $659.70

Kate spend in total to make these purchases is $659.70. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.

What is total?

A total is a whole or complete amount, and "to total" is to add numbers or to destroy something. In math, you total numbers by adding them: the result is the total.

Given that, Kate bought 30 shares of Stock XYZ at the close price of $9.67.

Amount he paid for first 30 shares

= 18 +(30×9.67)

= 18+290.1

= $308.1

Amount he paid for next 30 shares

= 18+(30×11.12)

= 18+333.6

= $351.6

Thus, the total amount paid

= 308.1+351.6

= $659.7

Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
