Which of the following is the most appropriate method for creating such an estimate? A two-sample z-interval for a population proportion A one-sample interval for a sample proportion A one-sample 2-interval for a population proportion A two-sample z interval for a difference between sample proportions A two sample 2-interval for a difference between population proportions

a) The sampling method used is non-probability sampling.

b) The sample is going to be representative.

What is sampling?

Sampling is a technique for choosing certain individuals or a small portion of the population in order to draw conclusions about the population as a whole and estimate its characteristics. Researchers frequently utilise various sampling techniques in market research so they do not have to study the full community in order to gather useful information.

In non-probability sampling, participants are chosen at random by the researcher. This type of sampling is not a set or predetermined selection procedure. This makes it challenging for every component of the population to have an equal chance of being included in a sample.

The sampling method used in non-probability sampling as the people selected are selected on a convenience basis.

A representative sample is a subset of a population that seeks to accurately reflect the characteristics of the larger group.

Since, the students are chosen randomly but from the same room of the same school they might represent the characteristics of all other students.

Therefore, the sample is representative.

Comparing column a with column b we get that column b is greater than column a. Hence, option B is the correct answer to this question.

Column a: We can find the surface area of a cone by using the formula -

Surface area = π * r * (r + l)

where r is the radius of the base and l is the slant height of the cone.

Substituting r = 3 cm and l = 8 cm, we get,  

Surface area = π * 3 * (3 + 8) = π * 3 * 11 = 33π

Hence, Surface area = 33π  [tex]cm^2[/tex]

Column b: We can find the surface area of a cone by using the formula -

Surface area = π * r * (r + l)

where r is the radius of the base and l is the slant height of the cone.

Substituting r = 4 cm and l = 6 cm, we get,

Surface area = π * 4 * (4 + 6) = π * 4 * 10 = 40π

Hence, Surface area = 40π  [tex]cm^2[/tex]

Comparing we get that,

The surface area of the cone with a base radius of 3 cm and slant height of 8 cm < the surface area of the cone with a base radius of 4 cm and a slant height of 6 cm.

Hence, column a < column b.

where:

b₁ = Slope coefficient is shown in the regression table.

t₁-α/2, n-2 = The t critical value for confidence level 1-α with n-2 degrees of freedom where n is the total number of observations in our dataset.

se(b1) = The standard error of b₁ shown in the regression table.

Given that all conditions for inference are met, we can use the output of the linear regression analysis to find the values of b1 and se(b1) and then use a t-distribution table to find the t critical value for a 95% confidence level with 20 degrees of freedom (22-2).

The given options do not provide the values of b1 and se(b1), so we cannot calculate the confidence interval using them.

Answer: To determine which expression is equivalent to 3√/8x²y³ z^4, we need to simplify the given expression and compare it with the options.

First, we can simplify the cube root:

3√/8x²y³ z^4 = (3/8)x^(2/3)y^(1/3)z^(4/3)

Now, we can compare this expression with the options:

A. 2x^(3/2)YZ^(3/4) is not equivalent to the simplified expression because the exponent of x is different (3/2 vs 2/3)

B. 2x^(2/3)YZ^(3/4) is equivalent to the simplified expression. The exponents of x, y and z are the same and the coefficient is also the same

C. 2z/x is not equivalent to the simplified expression because it has different variables and exponents

D. 2x/z is not equivalent to the simplified expression because it has different variables and exponents

Therefore, the expression that is equivalent to 3√/8x²y³ z^4 is B. 2x^(2/3)YZ^(3/4)

Note that the vertical rise of the included plane is 519.35 ft. This is arrived at by the use of the knowledge of Trigonometric Identities.

Trigonometric Identities are equalities that utilize trigonometry functions and hold true for all variables in the equation. There are several trigonometric identities relating the side length and angle of a triangle.

Because the slope's length is 896.54 feet and its inclination is 35.4 degrees, let h be the vertical rise of the incline. Based on trigonometric identities,

Sin 35.4 = h/896.54

h = 896.54 (Sin35.4)

Answer: The equations that represent circles that have a diameter of 12 units and a center that lies on the y-axis are:

(x – 6)² + y² = 36

x2 + (y + 6)² = 36

Because a diameter is the distance between two points on a circle that is farthest from each other, the radius of the process must be half of the diameter. So the radius of the ring is 6 units.

The center of the circle must be on the y-axis, it means that the x coordinate of the center is 0, so the equation of the circle will be (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r² where h = 0, k = center on the y-axis, and r = 6.

The first equation, x2 + (y – 3)2 = 36, doesn't represent a circle with a center on the y-axis, because the center of the circle is represented by (0, 3) which is not on the y-axis.

The second equation x2 + (y – 5)2 = 6 doesn't represent a circle with a diameter of 12 units, because the value of the equation is 6 which is not equal to the square of the radius.

The third equation, (x – 4)² + y² = 36, doesn't represent a circle with a center on the y-axis, because the center of the circle is represented by (4, 0) which is not on the y-axis.

The forth equation, (x + 6)² + y² = 144, doesn't represent a circle with a diameter of 12 units, because the value of the equation is 144 which is not equal to the square of the radius.

The fifth equation, x2 + (y + 8)² = 36, doesn't represent a circle with a diameter of 12 units, because the value of the equation is 36 which is not equal to the square of the radius.

Correct option is C, The height of triangular prism is not 6 units, it is 15 units.

A triangle base, a translated copy, and three faces that join the appropriate sides make up a triangular prism, a three-sided prism. There are no rectangular sides in an oblique right triangle; it is only a right triangle. A right triangle is a uniform triangular prism, which has square sides and equilateral bases.

In essence, it is a polyhedron with three parallel sides, three surface normals in the same plane, and three surface normals (which is not necessarily parallel to the base planes). These three faces make it a parallelogram. Every cross-section that follows the base faces yields the same triangle.

For the given triangular prism,

The perimeter of base = Side + Side + Side = 13+11+8 = 32 units
