Kendra reads in Modern Dog Magazine that the average age of dogs currently alive is 4.8 years. To determine if this finding applies to the customers in her pet store, Kendra surveys every fifth customer in her store who owns a dog and asks the age of their dog. She collects data for seven weeks and obtains the following averages.
Week Average Age (in years)
1 3.7
2 3.8
3 4.2
4 4.1
5 3.9
6 3.9
7 4.0
Select the statement that is true about Kendra's sample.
a) Kendra's samples are both accurate and precise.
b) Kendra's samples are precise but not accurate.
c) Kendra's samples are neither accurate nor precise.
d) Kendra's samples are accurate but not precise.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The true statement about Kendra's sample is:

b) Kendra's samples are precise but not accurate.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Average age of dogs currently alive = 4.8 years

Average ages of dogs in Kendra's sample

Week   Average Age (in years)

1                    3.7

2                   3.8

3                   4.2

4                   4.1

5                  3.9

6                  3.9

7                  4.0

Total         27.6

Mean = 3.9 (27.6/7)

b) Accuracy refers to how close Kendra's sample mean age of dogs is to the average age value as stated in the Modern Dog Magazine.  While the Magazine stated an average age of 4.8 years, Kendra's sample produced a mean of 3.9 years.  On the other hand, precision refers to how close Kendra's sample measurements are to each other.  With a mean of 3.9 years, the sample measurements are very close to each other.  Therefore, we can conclude that "Kendra's samples are precise but not accurate."

Answer 2

Answer:

Kendra's samples are precise but not accurate.

Step-by-step explanation:

To be accurate and precise they should be around 4.8 for all the measures. We can see that they are all relatively close to one another (between 3.7 and 4.2), so they are precise. However, they are all are smaller than 4.8, so they are not accurate.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  Part A: 2 ft²

  Part B: draw a diagonal (AC, for example); 1 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

The area of a parallelogram is given by the formula ...

  A = bh

where 'b' is the length of the base, and 'h' is the perpendicular distance between the bases.

Using the numbers shown on the diagram, the area is ...

  A = (3 ft)(2/3 ft) = 3·2/3 ft²

  A = 2 ft² . . . . . area of the parallelogram

__

Part B:

Typically, a polygon is partitioned into triangles by drawing diagonals from one of the vertices. It does not matter which one. (In a quadrilateral, only one diagonal can be drawn from any given vertex.) Here, the "base" of each triangle is the same as the base of the parallelogram: 3 feet. The "height" of each triangle is the same as the height of the parallelogram: 2/3 ft.

The area of a triangle is given by the formula ...

  A = 1/2bh

  A = 1/2(3 ft)(2/3 ft) = (1/2)(3)(2/3) ft²

  A = 1 ft² . . . . . . . . area of each triangle

_____

Additional comment

It should be no surprise that the area of each of the two congruent triangles is 1/2 the area of the parallelogram.

We're given the one-sided limit,

Evaluating the limand directly at x = 1 gives the indeterminate from

In the accompanying diagram of circle O, chords AB and CD intersect at E. If AE = 3, EB = 4, CE = x, and ED = x + 1, find. CE.

Answers

Answer:

CE = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

AE = 3

EB = 4

CE = x

ED = x + 1

Required:

CE

Solution:

First we need to determine the value of x by generating am equation as follows:

CE × ED = AE × EB (Interacting Chords Theorem)

Substitute

x × (x + 1) = 3 × 4

x² + x = 12

Subtract 12 from each side

x² + x - 12 = 12 - 12

x² + x - 12 = 0

Factorize to find the value of x

x² + 4x - 3x - 12 = 0

x(x + 4) -3(x + 4) = 0

(x - 3)(x + 4) = 0

x - 3 = 0

x = 3

Or

x + 4 = 0

x = -4

Let's use the positive value of x

CE = x = 3

We can apply trigonometry on triangle BCD to obtain the length of CD

Sin θ = opposite / hypotenus

a rectangular room is 15ft long, 14ft wide and 8.0ft high. what is the length of the longest diagonal from one corner to another of the room​

Answers

Answer:

20.51ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Length= 15ft

Width= 14ft

Height= 8ft

Because we want to find the diagonal, let us use the Length and the width

We can get the diagonal by applying the Pythagoras theorem

z^2= x^2+y^2

z^2= 15^2+ 14^2

z^2= 225+ 196

z^2= 421

square both sides

z= √421

z=20.51 ft

Hence the diagonal is 20.51ft
