Answer:

<em>There were 204 ladies and 136 gentlemen in the conference</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set the variables:

L = number of ladies in the conference

G = number of gentlemen in the conference

We know 340 people participated in the conference, thus:

L + G = 340         [1]

We are also given the ratio of ladies and gentleman as 3:2, thus:

L/G = 3/2

Cross-multiplying:

2L = 3G        [2]

From [1]:

L = 340 - G

Substituting in [2]:

2(340 - G) = 3G

Operating:

680 - 2G = 3G

5G = 680

G = 680/5 = 136

G = 136

L = 340 - 136 = 204

L = 204

There were 204 ladies and 136 gentlemen in the conference

nordsb [41]
The volume of the display is 900 cubic inches.  

The formula for the volume of a prism is L x W x H. 

In the small shape, we have:  5 x 5 x 12 = 300
In the large shape, we have:  5 x 5 x 24 = 600

Add them together and we have 900 cubic inches.

Suppose you were exploring the hypothesis that there is a relationship between parents’ and children’s party identification. Wou
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

No

It could be purely due to chance.

Step-by-step explanation:

A population is defined as the whole group which has the same characteristics. For example a population of the college belongs to the same college . But a sample may be an element of a population.

So it is not necessary for a population to have the same characteristics as the sample.

But it is essential for the sample to have at least one same characteristics as the population.

So we would not be correct in inferring that such a relationship also exists in the population.

It is a hypothesis which can be true or false due to certain conditions or limitations as the case maybe.

For example in a population of smokers some may be in the habit of taking cocaine. But a sample of cocaine users does not mean the whole population uses it.

It could be purely due to chance if we find out that there is a relationship between parents’ and children’s party identification in the population.
