Answer:

C. All participants in the city's recreation program

Correct, since we are interested in all the participants in the city's recreation program

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A sampling frame by definition is "a list of all the items in your population". Or a list of all the people that we want to study.

Taking in count this definition we can analyze one by one the possible options:

A. All members of the community

False we are interested just in all the participants in the city's recreation program

B. The 500 people who got the survey

False that represent the selected people but no represent the sampling frame, since we are interested in all the participants in the city's recreation program

C. All participants in the city's recreation program

Correct, since we are interested in all the participants in the city's recreation program

D. The participants that support the initiative

False we are not interested just in the participants that support the initiative, we want all the participants in the recreation program for the sampling frame

E. The 150 people that responded

False that represent the sample obtained not the sampling frame

The sanitation department calculated that last year each city resident produced approximately 1.643 × 103 pounds of garbage. The
bija089 [108]

Given that, according to sanitation departments report; the samount of garbage produced by 1 resident = 1.643 \times 10^3pound.

Given that population of the city = 2.61 \times 10^5


Now we have to find how much garbage did the city sanitation department collect last year.

To find that we just need to multiply the garbage produced by 1 resident with the population of the city.


Total garbage collected = (2.61 \times 10^5 ) * (1.643 \times 10^3 ) pounds

Total garbage collected = (2.61*1.643) \times 10^{5+3} pounds

Total garbage collected = 4.28823 \times 10^8 pounds

Hence final answer is 4.28823 \times 10^8 pounds.

Peter wants to fence the park in front of his home on three sides which measure 152m 40cm, 205m 10cm, 310m 39cm. What is the tot
Tpy6a [65]

One centimenter is 0.01 meters. So, you can write the measures as

152.40\text{m},\quad 205.10\text{m},\quad 310.39\text{m}

Once this rewriting is done, getting the total length T is quite trivial, since all measurements are in the same unit, and we can simply sum everything:

T = 152.40+205.10+310.39 = 667.89

There are seven boys and five girls in a class. The teacher randomly selects three different students to answer questions. The f
Aleks [24]

The probability of picking one girl would be \frac{5}{12}. That is because there are 5 girls out of the 12 students, and the probability of an event occuring is: \frac{\text{# of things you want}}{\text{# of things are possible}}.

Using that same logic, the next student should be easier. We reduced the student population by 1, so we have 11 possible ways it can happen now instead of 12, so that gives us:\frac{7}{11}, for the probability of picking a boy as the second pick.

And lastly, using the same logic shown above, the probability of picking a girl on the third pick would be:\frac{4}{10}.

We are not done, though. We have the separate probabilities, but now we have to multiply then together to figure out the probability of this exact event happening:

\frac{5}{12}*\frac{7}{11}*\frac{4}{10}=\frac{140}{1320}

Which when reduced is:

\frac{7}{66}

The hypotenuse of a 45°-45°-90° triangle measures 10 StartRoot 5 EndRoot in. A right triangle is shown. The hypotenuse has a len
suter [353]

Answer:

5\sqrt{10}\ units

5 StartRoot 10 EndRoot

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The legs of a 45°-45°-90° triangle are congruent

Let

x ---->  the length of one leg of the triangle

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

c^2=a^2+b^2

where

c is the hypotenuse

a and b are the legs

we have

c=10\sqrt{5}\ units

a=b=x\ units

substitute

(10\sqrt{5})^2=x^2+x^2

500=2x^2\\x^2=250\\x=\sqrt{250}\ units

Simplify

x=5\sqrt{10}\ units

Lin multiplies 7/8 times a number. The product is less than 7/8. Which could be Lin’s number?
RSB [31]

Answer:

So, the number that Lin multiplied by 7/8 MUST be less than 1. This is evident, as any positive number multiplied by a number less than 1 will decrease, doesn't matter if its a negative or positive number.
