Answer:

all her patients patients with no cavities

patients younger than 18

every patient with braces

Step-by-step explanation:

when a sample is selected in a manner that some elements, in this case patients, of population have higher or lower probability of sampling then that sample is biased.

From given case, all the following are biased samples

all her patients patients with no cavities

patients younger than 18

every patient with braces

because they are non-random sample of a population in which all other elements were not equally likely to be chosen!

Graph y ≥ -x^2 - 1. Click on the graph until the correct graph appears.
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y\geq -x^{2}-1

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area above the solid line of the equation of the  parabola y= -x^{2}-1

The vertex of the parabola is the point (0,-1)

The parabola open downward (vertex is a maximum)

Unit Cost
Cost ÷ Weight         $0.35 per oz                         $0.30 per oz
1 lb = 16 oz               16 oz                                      16 oz
Cost per pound       
Unit Cost * 16oz     $5.60 per lb                          $4.80 per lb

The blueberries in the farmer's market costs less than the blueberries from the grocery store. 

One pound of blueberries from the farmer's market is cheaper by $0.80 than the blueberries from the grocery store. ($5.60 - $4.80 = $0.80)

A mirror is made of two congruent parallelograms as shown in the diagram. The parallelograms have a combined area of 9 1/3 squar
Vika [28.1K]
Given:
2 parallelograms with an area of 9 1/3 yd²
height of each parallelogram is 1 1/3 yd

Area of parallelogram = base * height

We need to divide the combined area into two to get each parallelogram's base.

9 1/3 = ((9*3)+1)/3 = 28/3

28/3 ÷ 2 = 28/3 * 1/2 = 28/6 yd² or 4 4/6 yd² ⇒ 4 2/3 yd²

Area of each parallelogram is 4 2/3 yd²

4 2/3 yd² = base * 1 1/3 yd

14/3 yd² ÷ 4/3 yd = base

14/3 yd² x 3/4 yd = base
14*3 / 3*4 = base
42 / 12 = base
3 6/12 yd = base
or 3 1/2 yd = base

a) the base of each parallelogram is 3 1/2 yards
b) we can assume that the two parallelograms form a rectangle.
area of a rectangle is length times width.

length is 3 1/2 yds * 2 = 7 yds
width is 3 1/2 yds

Area of rectangle = 7 yds * 3 1/2 yds
Area = 7 yd * 7/2 yd
Area = 7*7 / 2 yd²
Area = 49 / 2 yd²
Area = 24 1/2 yd²

A website randomly selects among 10 products to discount each day. The color printer of interest to you is discounted today. Det
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

a) P = 0.039

b) The expected number of days is 10 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The most appropiate distribution to use in this case is the geometric distribution, in order to calculate the probability of a success after k failure trials.

The probability of success, as each of the 10 products are assumed to have fair probabilities, is:

p=1/10=0.1

Then, the probability that our product is not selected any given day is:

q=1-p=1-0.1=0.9

a) The probability that exactly this product is selected exactly 10 days from now is the probability that is not selected (probbility q) for the next 9 days and selected (probability p) at the 10th day:

P=q^9p^1=0.9^9\cdot0.1=0.3874\cdot0.1=0.039

b) The expected number of days is calculated as:

E(X)=\dfrac{1}{p}=\dfrac{1}{0.1}=10
