A town council wants to conduct a survey on town policies using a random sample of residents.
Which method would result in a random sample?

A: Ask all residents having lunch at a local restaurant.

B: Ask the first 5 residents who visit town hall after it opens.

C: Draw slips of paper with names of residents out of a large box.

D: Print survey forms on postcards and have residents mail their responses.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Draw slips of paper with names of residents out of a large box.

Step-by-step explanation:

c is the only one where the results are truly random

sorry don't really know how to explain it rather than looking at the definition

Answer 2

Draw slips of paper with names of residents out of a large box is the method would result in a random sample. Hence, option C is correct.

What is random sample?

A subset of a population is chosen at random in a basic random sampling. The possibility of selection bias is minimized in this sampling technique since every member of the population has an exact equal chance of being chosen.

A simple random sample might consist of 25 employees' names drawn at random from a pool of 250 employees. Since each employee has an equal chance of being selected, the sample in this case is random and the population in this case is all 250 employees.

Random sampling makes sure that the findings you get from your sample should be close to what you would have gotten if you measured the complete population. All of the units in the population can have information using the simplest random sampling.

Thus, option C is correct.

if agnete usually drinks three 8 oz cups (80 mg) of drip coffee every day how many grams of caffeine will she consume in a week​

Answers

Answer

80oz

Hope

it helps

Agnete consumes 1.68 grams of caffeine in a week.

What is a unit rate?

It is the quantity of an amount of something at a rate of one of another quantity.

In 2 hours, a man can walk for 6 miles

In 1 hour, a man will walk for 3 miles.

We have,

We know that Agnete drinks 3 cups of drip coffee every day, and each cup contains 8 oz of coffee, which is equivalent to 80 mg of caffeine.

To find out how many grams of caffeine Agnete consumes in a week, we can start by calculating the total amount of caffeine she consumes in a day:

Total caffeine in a day.

= 3 cups x 80 mg/cup

= 240 mg

Then, we can multiply this value by 7 to find the total amount of caffeine she consumes in a week:

Total caffeine in a week = 240 mg/day x 7 days/week = 1680 mg

To convert milligrams (mg) to grams (g), we divide by 1000:

Total caffeine in a week = 1680 mg / 1000 = 1.68 g

Therefore,

Agnete consumes 1.68 grams of caffeine in a week.

3. Nutrition labels. The nutrition label on a bag of potato chips says that a one ounce (28 gram) serving of potato chips has 130 calories and contains ten grams of fat, with three grams of saturated fat. A random sample of 35 bags yielded a sample mean of 134 calories with a standard deviation of 17 calories. a. Calculate the 95% confidence interval of for this random sample. Then interpret this interval.

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval of for this random sample is between 128.16 calories and 139.84 calories. This means that we are 95% that the mean number of calories for all bags of potato chips is in this interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 35 - 1 = 34

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 34 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.0322

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.0322\frac{17}{\sqrt{35}} = 5.84[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 134 - 5.84 = 128.16 calories

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 134 + 5.84 = 139.84 calories

The 95% confidence interval of for this random sample is between 128.16 calories and 139.84 calories. This means that we are 95% that the mean number of calories for all bags of potato chips is in this interval.

B: x = $5, y = $4
C: x = $7, y = $10
D: x = $4, y = $5

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

• 5X + 2Y = 48

• 2Y = 48 - 5X

let's use this and replace it on the second equation

• 3X + 2Y = 32

• 3X + 48 - 5X = 32

• 3X - 5X = 32 - 48

• -2X = -16

X = 8

now use the X value we found to find the Y

• 5X + 2Y = 48

• 5*8 + 2Y = 48

• 40 + 2Y = 48

• 2Y = 48-40

• Y = 8/2

Y = 4

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

17x7=119

7x8=56

15x7=105

120+119+56+105=400

The total surface area of a given prism is 400 cm².

What the surface area of a prism?

To find the surface area of any kind of prism we use the general formula. The total surface area of a prism is the sum of lateral surface area and area of two flat bases.

The total surface area of a Prism = (2 × Base Area) + (Base perimeter × Length).

Here, Base area = 1/2 ×Base×Height

= 0.5×8×15

= 60 cm²

Base perimeter = 15+8+17

= 40 cm

Now, total surface area = 2×60+(40×7)

= 120+280

= 400 cm²

Therefore, the total surface area of a given prism is 400 cm².

The surface area of the prism is 108 m².

What is Surface Area?

The area of a three dimensional object on it's outer surface is called the surface area of the object.

Given is the figure of a triangular prism.

Triangular prism consists of two triangular bases and three rectangular lateral faces.

Triangular base is right triangle.

Surface area of prism = area of bases + area of lateral faces

Area of a triangular base = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × base × height

                                          = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 4 × 3

                                          = 6 m²

Area of two triangular bases = 2 × 6 = 12 m²

Area of a rectangle = length × width

Area of rectangular faces = (8 × 5) + (8 × 4) + (8 × 3)

                                           = 40 + 32 + 24

                                           = 96 m²

Total surface area = 12 m² + 96 m² = 108 m²

Hence the total surface area of the prism is 108 m².
