A city council has requested a household survey be conducted in a suburban area of their city. The area is broken into many dist

inct and unique neighborhoods, some including large homes, some with only apartments, and others a diverse mixture of housing structures. Identify the sampling methods described below, and comment on whether or not you think they would be effective in this setting.
(a) Randomly sample 50 households from the city.
(b) Divide the city into neighborhoods, and sample 20 households from each neighborhood.
(c) Divide the city into neighborhoods, randomly sample 10 neighborhoods, and sample all house-holds from those neighborhoods.
(d) Divide the city into neighborhoods, randomly sample 10 neighborhoods, and then randomly sample 20 households from those neighborhoods.
(e) Sample the 200 households closest to the city council oces.

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the most effective sample to this setting would be to

Divide the city into neighborhoods. Randomly sample 10 neighborhoods. And then randomly sample 20 households from those neighborhoods.

The city is first divided into the various distinct and unique neighbourhoods, then randomly sample 10 neighborhood such that this sample is a representation of the many distinct and unique neighborhoods, which include some with large homes, some with only apartments, and others a diverse mixture of housing structures.

Then from each neighborhood, take a random sample of 20 households.

This way, your sample are a representation of the population.

The random variable X is exponentially distributed, where X represents the waiting time to see a shooting star during a meteor s
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The parameters of the exponential distribution is 0.0133.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution is a continuous probability distribution.

The density function of exponential distribution is,  

f _{X}(x)=\theta \cdot e^{-\theta\cdot x},\ x\geq 0

Here the parameter θ is the reciprocal of the mean of the random variable <em>X</em>.

The random variable <em>X</em> has an average value of 75 seconds.

Compute the parameters of the exponential distribution as follows:

\theta=\frac{1}{\mu}\\\\

  =\frac{1}{75}\\\\=0.013333333333\\\\\approx 0.0133

Thus, the parameters of the exponential distribution is 0.0133.

Rate at which risk of down syndrome is changing is approximated by function r(x) = 0.004641x2 − 0.3012x + 4.9 (20 ≤ x ≤ 45) wher
romanna [79]
The rate of change of the risk of down syndrome (in percentage of births per year) is
r(x) = 0.004641x² - 0.3012x + 4.9,   20≤ x ≤ 45
where
x = maternal age at delivery.

The function giving risk as a percentage of births when maternal age is x is the integral of r(x). That is,
f(x) = 0.001547x³ - 0.1506x² +4.9x + c

When x = 30, f = 0.14%. Therefore
0.001547(30³) - 0.1506(30²) + 4.9(30) + c = 0.14 
41.769 - 135.54 + 147 + c = 0.14
c = -53.089

Answer:
f(x) = 0.001547x³ - 0.1506x² + 4.9x - 53.089,   20 ≤ x ≤ 45

The function is graphed as shown below.

Ethan bought 4 packages of pencils. After he gave 8 pencils to his friends, he had 40 pencils
LiRa [457]

He had 40 pencils left after he gave away 8, so originally he had 40 + 8 pencils, which is 48.

Now, he bought 4 packages, which had a total of 48 pencils, so divide 48 by 4, which is 12. He had 12 pencils in each package.

To determine the solution arithmetically, first add 8 to 40, then divide 48 by 4.

To determine the solution algebraically, set up and solve the equation 40 = 4x - 8.

Each package contained 12 pencils.

Hope this helps
