A psychology student wishes to investigate differences in political opinions between business majors and political science major

s at her college. She randomly selects 100 students from the 260 business majors and 100 students from the 180 political science majors. Does this sampling method result in a random sample? Why or why not?
No, because each individual student does not have an equal chance of being selected. Yes, because each individual student has an equal chance of being selected. No, because each group of 200 students in the sample does not have the same chance of being selected. Yes, because each group of 200 students in the sample has the same chance of being selected.

<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

<em>Hence, the correct answer is:</em>

<em>Yes, because each individual student has an equal chance of being selected.</em>

<h3><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h3>

A simple random sample is a subset of a statistical population in which each member of the subset has an equal probability of being chosen. A simple random sample is meant to be an unbiased representation of a group.

In the following question we have two subset one of political science majors and the other of business majors and each of the subset the probability of choosing 100 members have equal chance of being selected.

Hence, the correct answer is:

Yes, because each individual student has an equal chance of being selected.

The distribution of annual profit at a chain of stores was approximately normal with mean \mu = \$66{,}000μ=$66,000mu, equals, d
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The closest to the maximum profit is  x = \$ 83682

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  mean is  \mu  =  \$66,000

   The standard deviation is  \sigma  = \$ 21000

   The percentage of profit is  20%

Generally the closest to the maximum annual profit at a store where the executives conducted an audit is mathematically evaluated  as follows

     P(X >  x ) =  0.20

=>  P(X >  x ) = P(\frac{X -x}{\sigma }  >  \frac{x -66000}{21000} ) =  0.20

From the z-table  the z-score for  0.20  is  

    z-score =  0.842

So

     \frac{x -66000}{21000}  = 0.842

=>   x = \$ 83682

STALIN [3.7K]
If a pack of paper costs 3.75 including tax, and there is a $20 budget, then the equation to find out the answer would be 3.75p is greater or equal to $20. So the answer would be B. 3.75 would be multiplied by the tax and then applied up to $20.

Solve the radical equation. square root 6n-11= n – 3 Which solution is extraneous? A.)2
Anvisha [2.4K]
ANSWER


D) 10

EXPLANATION

We want to solve the radical equation,

\sqrt{6n - 11}  = n - 3

Square both sides,



6n - 11 = (n - 3) ^{2}

Expand brackets on right hand side,

6n - 11 =  {n}^{2}  - 6n + 9

Rewrite in general quadratic equation form,

{n}^{2}  - 12n  + 20 = 0

Factor to obtain,

(n - 2)(n - 10) = 0

Apply the zero product principle to get,

n = 2 \: or \: n = 10


We put n=2 into the equation to get,

\sqrt{6(2) - 11}  = 2 - 3


1 =  - 1


This statement is false, hence 2 is an extraneous solution


We put n=10, to get

\sqrt{6(10) - 11}  = 10 - 3


\sqrt{49}  = 7


7 = 7


This is true, hence the only solution is
n = 10
