The standard shower head, if used for 8 minutes a day, will use up 56 gallons by the end of the day.  The energy saving one will only use up 24 gallons by the end of the day if it is used for eight minutes.  Take 24 and subtract it from 56.  The difference of 24 and 56 is 32 (56-24=32).  So the answer is C, 32 gallons.

Its C. Because he uses 56 gallons with the normal shower head but only uses 24 with the saving one. 56-24+32

A pack of 6 batteries of the same type costs £2.79. By caculating the price, per battery, determine if this is better value. You
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

£0.465. It is a better value.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a pack of 6 batteries costs £2.79, price of a battery can be calculated as shown;

6batteries = £2.79

1 battery = x

x = cost of a battery

6x = £2.79

x = £2.79/6

x = £0.465

Price per battery will be £0.465. This price is a better value since the price is lesser than the cost of the 6batteries (£2.79) in a pack.

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

C. Different sample proportions would result each time, but for either sample size, they would be centered (have their mean) at the true population proportion.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

A political polling agency wants to take a random sample of registered voters and ask whether or not they will vote for a certain candidate.

A random sample is usually an outcome of any experiment that cannot be predicted before the result.

SO;

One plan is to select 400 voters, another plan is to select 1,600 voters

If the study were conducted repeatedly (selecting different samples of people each time);

Different sample proportions would result each time, but for either sample size, they would be centered (have their mean) at the true population proportion.  This is because a sample proportion deals with random experiments that cannot be predicted in advance and they  are  quite known to be centered about the population proportion.
