The coach of a college basketball team records the resting pulse rates of the team's players. A confidence interval for the mean

resting pulse rate of all collegians based on these data is of little use because __________.
A) the sample size is small, so the margin of error will be large.
B) the members of the basketball team can't be considered a random sample from the entire collegiate population.
C) many of the students on the team may refuse to respond.
D) the coach has sampled the entire population so there is no need for inference.

Answer:

B) the members of the basketball team can't be considered a random sample from the entire collegiate population.

Step-by-step explanation:

The coach is trying to estimate a parameter of a population (the mean resting pulse rates of alla collegians) from a sample statistic (the mean resting pulse of the basketball team's players).

The confidence interval for the parameter is of little use as the sample of team players is not representative of the population of collegians. The sample can not be considered random. Then, the estimation of the parameter will be biased.

You need to write an essay that has at least 500 words you have written 285 words so far right and solve an inequality that Reec
andrezito [222]

Answer:

The minimum number of words left to write is 215

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

w -----> the number of words left to write

we know that

The number of words left to write plus the words written so far must be greater than or equal to 500 words

Remember that the word "at least" means "greater than or equal to"

so

w+285\geq 500                

Solve for w                        

Subtract 285 both sides        

w\geq 500-285\\w\geq 215

The minimum number of words left to write is 215

Alla [95]
As long as your indexes are the same (which they are; they are all square roots) and you radicands are the same (which they are; they are all 11), then you can add or subtract.  The rules for adding and subtracting radicals are more picky than multiplying or dividing.  Just like adding fractions or combining like terms.  Since all the square roots are the same we only have to worry about the numbers outside.  In fact, it may help to factor out the sqrt 11: (5-12-2) \sqrt{11}.  The numbers subtract to give you -9.  Therefore, the simplification is -9 \sqrt{11}

Choose Yes or No to tell if the digit in the ones place is 1/10 the value of the digit in the tens place.
Radda [10]

Answer:

  • 4099 yes
  • 4110 no
  • 5909 no
  • 5011 yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The digits will be related by a factor of 10 if they are the same digit. 4099 and 5011 have the same digit in the tens and ones places. 4110 and 5909 do not.

Line JM intersects line GK at point N. Which statements are true about the figure? Check all that apply.
ki77a [65]
See attached image

First, we must know this: Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is equal to 90°, while supplementary angles are two angles whose sum is equal to 180°. That been said, the only statement which is true is the second statement, <span>MNL is complementary to KNL

Reasons why others are False
</span>GNJ is supplementary to JNK, not complementary
MNG is supplementary to GNJ, not complementary
LNJ (not KNJ) <span>is supplementary to MNL
</span>GNM is equal to JNK, not supplementary
