In a poll of Mr. Briggs’s math class, 67% of the students say that math is their favorite academic subject. The editor of the school paper is in the class, and he wants to write an article for the paper saying that math is the most popular subject at the school. Explain why this is not a valid conclusion and suggest a way to gather better data to determine what subject is most popular.

Answers

Answer 1

This is not a valid conclusion because the data was not randomly collected from various classes in the school but from a particular class.

Collection of data for a research work

The collection of data for a research work should be done in such a way as to include a good number of the test subjects.

The sampling methods that can be used to gather better data include the following:

Random sampling,

Cluster sampling, and

Systematic sampling methods.

These methods will ensure that a good number of the test subjects are included in the research work in order to form a valid conclusion.

Answer:

m∠ACE = 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure Interpretation:

m∠CBA + m∠CDE = 180

m∠BCA = (180-m∠CBA)/2

m∠DCE = (180-m∠CDE)/2

=======================

Then

m∠BCA + m∠DCE = (180-m∠CBA)/2 + (180-m∠CDE)/2

                                = [360-(m∠CBA+m∠CDE)]/2

                                = [360 - 180]/2

                                = 90

finally,

m∠ACE= 180 - (m∠BCA + m∠DCE)

             = 180 - 90

             = 90

What is limit of startfraction x squared x minus 12 over x squared minus 3 x endfraction as x approaches 3? 0 startfraction 7 over 3 endfraction 4 dne

Answers

The limit of the expression [tex]f(x) = \frac{x^2 - 12}{x^2 - 3}[/tex]a s x approaches 3 is -1/2

How to determine the limit?

The expression is given as:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{x^2 - 12}{x^2 - 3}[/tex]

As the variable x approaches 3, the limit is represented as:

[tex]\lim_{x \to 3} f(x)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\lim_{x \to 3} = \frac{3^2 - 12}{3^2 - 3}[/tex]

Evaluate the exponents

[tex]\lim_{x \to 3} = \frac{-3}{6}[/tex]

Evaluate the quotient

[tex]\lim_{x \to 3} = -\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Hence, the limit of the expression as x approaches 3 is -1/2

The Ratio of boys to girls at Verrado Middle School is 4 to 5. If there are 300 boys at VMS, how many more girls are
there than boys?
(Someone pls help :>)

Answers

Answer:

75 more girls.

Explanation:-

Given:- Ratio of girls to boys = 5:3

And, the number of boys= 300

Let boys be 4x and girls be 5x

So, 4x = 300 (Given)

x = 300/4 = 75

Thus number of girls:- 5x = 5×75= 375 girls

now you take the 375 girls minus the 300 boys.

375-300 = 75 Girls more

What is the ratio of the area of sector abc to the area of sector dbe?

Answers

The ratio of the area of sector abc to the area of sector dbe is 4:3

Area of a sector

The formula for calculating the area of a sector is expressed as:

A = r²Ф

where:

r is the radiusФ is the subtended angle

For the sector ABC

A1 = (2r)²β
A1 = 4r²β

For the sector DBE
A2 = (r)²3β
A2 = 3r²β

Take the ratios

Ratio= A1/A2
Ratio = 4r²β/3r²β
Ratio = 4/3

Hence the ratio of the area of sector abc to the area of sector dbe is 4:3

Formula for surface area of a cylinder is 2πrh + 2r²π

2πrh: this is the formula to find the area of the cylinder itself (circumference of the base times the height of the cylinder)

2r²π: this is the formula to find the area of the 2 circles at the end of the cylinder (area of a circle times 2)

We can substitute h with 7 and r with 3 to solve:
