A company surveyed all of the employees in their Columbus, Ohio office,
one of their six national offices. Based on the survey they determined that
72% of all employees were satisfied with their job. Which of the following
explains why this is NOT a random sample?
A. They only surveyed people who had been at their job for five years or
more.
B. They did not survey employees in other offices around the country.
C. The survey was conducted electronically.
D. The survey had a time limit.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. They did not survey employees in other offices around the country

Step-by-step explanation:

1. A random sample is when you randomly choose options from the whole list. In this case, they make it clear that there are other offices. They didn't give a chance to the rest of the offices to take a survey.

2. Surveying "all" the employees is not what a random sample is. A random sample is supposed to help make it more distributed among the people you survey. Making all of them take it in a cluster is not random.

3. The other choices don't make sense because they don't mention anything about them: nothing about the employees working 5 years, nothing about it being conducted electronically, and nothing about a time limit.

Answers

given:

radius= 10 inches

3 revolutions in 2 seconds.

to find:

the linear velocity.

solution:

[tex]2\pi \: r = 2 \times \pi \times 10[/tex]

[tex] = 62.85inches[/tex]

[tex](3 \times 62.85)[/tex]

[tex] = 188.57[/tex]

[tex] = 94.28[/tex]

hence, the linear velocity of the object is 94.28 in/s.


The height of a triangle is 2 yards greater than the base. The area of the triangle is 60 square yards.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

h=b+2(assume h is hieght and b is base)

b*(b+2)=60

bb+2b=60

b=-1+√61

h=1+√61

Answer:

base=10

height=12

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of triangle formula is given by: A = (1/2)*b*h

where b: base of the triangle

           h: height of the triangle

Given that: h=b+2

                  A= 60 square yards

Solution:

60= (1/2)*b*(b+2)

[tex]\frac{b(b+2)}{2}[/tex] = 60

b²+2b=120

b²+2b-120=0

We got the quadratic equation: b²+2b-120=0

solve it to find b:  

Let x: coefficient of b² (x=1)

Let y: coefficient of b  (y=2)

Let z: constant (z= -120)

discriminant= y² - 4xz = 4 - 4(1)(-120) = 484

discriminant>0 so the equation has two roots:

b1= (-y-redical discriminant)/2x = (-2-redical(484))/2 = -12

b2= (-y+redical discriminant)/2x = (-2+redical(484))/2 = 10

b1= -12 is rejected because the base can't be negative

So b2=base=10

Now that we found the base, substitute to get the height:

h= b+2 = 10+2 =12

So height=12

               

If an object is thrown upward from a 100-foot-high platform with an initial velocity of 64 feet
per second, then its height in feet is given by h(t) = -16t2 + 64t + 100 where t is time in
seconds. What is the maximum height reached by the object?

Answers

Answer:

164 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The TIME of maximum height   (this is a dome shaped parabola)

        will be given by t = -b/2a = - 64 / (2)(-16) = 2 sec

Putting in t = 2   into the equation will give the max height

-16 (2^2) + 64(2) + 100 = max = 164 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Both 17 and 18 are similar. You split that it into pieces.

Area of Rectangle/Square: Area = Length * Width

Area of a Triangle: Area = 1/2 * Base * Height.

17.

Area Rectangle:

Area = Length * Width

Area = 10 ft * 6 ft = 60 ft^2

Area Triangle:

Area = 1/2 * Base * Height

Area = 1/2 * 10 ft * 13 ft = 65 ft^2

Total Area = 60 ft^2 + 65 ft^2 = 125 ft^2

18.

Area Rectangle:

Area = Length * Width

Area = 2.7 in * 2 in = 5.4 in^2

Area Triangle:

Area = 1/2 * Base * Height

Area = 1/2 * 2 in * 4.4 ft = 4.4 ft^2

Total Area = 5.4 ft^2 + 4.4 ft^2 = 9.4 ft^2

Answers

Answer:

117/108

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the area of the shaded parts. Since the shaded squares and triangles are the same size, then all shaded squares have sides 3 in. by 3 in. because the shaded square in the middle has sides 3 in. by 3 in.

We can also see that the shaded triangles have legs 6 in. and 6 in. because one of the shaded triangles in the figure are labeled 6 in by 6 in.

Now we can find the area of the shaded square and triangle (area of a square is side^2 while the area of a triangle is base*height/2).

Shaded Square Area: 3^2 = 9 in^2

Shaded Triangle Area: 6*6/2 = 18 in^2

There are 5 shaded squares and 4 shaded triangles, so we can determine the shaded area now:

Shaded Area: 9*5 + 18*4 = 45 + 72 = 117 in^2

Now we need to find the area of the white rectangles and the area of the white triangles. We can see that the sides of the white rectangles are 6 in. and 3 in. We can also see that the sides of the white triangles are 3 in and 3 in.

Now we can find the area of the white rectangle and the white triangle.

White Triangle Area: 3*3/2 = 9/2 = 4.5 in^2

White Rectangle Area: 3*6 = 18 in^2

There are 4 white rectangles and 8 white triangles, so we can determine the white area now:

White Area: 4*18 + 8*4.5 = 72 + 36 = 108 in^2

The ratio of the area of the shaded pieces to the area of the white pieces is 117/108.


Which expression could be used to determine the area of the shaded figure?

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the triangle area formula: A=1/2 (base)(height)

Plug in what we know: 216=1/2(18)(h)

Solve for h: (1/2)(18)=9.

216/9=24.

So, h=24

Determine the equations of two lines that pass through the point (-1,-3) and are tangent
to the graph of y=x² +1.

Answers

Answer:

Given equation:  [tex]y=x^2+1[/tex]

Therefore, we can say that any point on the curve has the coordinates [tex](a, a^2+1)[/tex]  (where a is any constant)

To find the gradient of the tangent to the curve at any given point, differentiate the equation.

Given equation:

[tex]y=x^2+1[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{dy}{dx}=2x[/tex]

Therefore, the gradient at point [tex](a, a^2+1)[/tex] is [tex]2a[/tex]

Using the point-slope form of linear equation, we can create a general equation of the tangent at point [tex](a, a^2+1)[/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned}y-y_1 & =m(x-x_1)\\ \implies y-(a^2+1)& =2a(x-a)\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\implies y=2ax-2a^2+a^2+1[/tex]

[tex]\implies y=2ax-a^2+1[/tex]

Given that the tangents pass through point (-1, -3), input this into the general equation of the tangent:

[tex]\begin{aligned}y &=2ax-a^2+1\\ \implies -3 & =2a(-1)-a^2+1\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 0=-2a-a^2+1+3[/tex]

[tex]\implies a^2+2a-4=0[/tex]

Use the quadratic formula to solve for a:

[tex]\implies a=\dfrac{-2\pm\sqrt{2^2-4(1)(-4)}}{2(1)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies a=\dfrac{-2\pm2\sqrt{5}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\implies a=-1 \pm \sqrt{5}[/tex]

Input the found values of a into the general equation of the tangent to create the equations of the two lines:

[tex]\begin{aligned}a=-1+\sqrt{5}\implies y & =2(-1+\sqrt{5})x-(-1+\sqrt{5})^2+1\\ y & =(-2+2\sqrt{5})x-(6-2\sqrt{5})+1\\ y & =(-2+2\sqrt{5})x+2\sqrt{5}-5 \end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}a=-1-\sqrt{5}\implies y & =2(-1-\sqrt{5})x-(-1-\sqrt{5})^2+1\\ y & =(-2-2\sqrt{5})x-(6+2\sqrt{5})+1\\ y & =(-2-2\sqrt{5})x-2\sqrt{5}-5 \end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the equations of the two lines that pass through the point (-1, -3) and are tangent to the graph of [tex]y=x^2+1[/tex] are:

[tex]y=(-2+2\sqrt{5})x+2\sqrt{5}-5[/tex]

[tex]y=(-2-2\sqrt{5})x-2\sqrt{5}-5[/tex]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

8+12+4+3+14+1+9+13=64, 64/8=8

Answer:

44.6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to answer this question, we need to find the mean of this data set. When finding the mean, you use the same process you use when averaging.

So we would do: 8 + 12 + 4 + 3 + 14 + 1 + 9 + 13/8

Our new fraction turns into 64/8, which we can then divide to give us 52.625. We can round up our new number to give us 52.6

We now need to find the absolute value of the difference between each data value and mean. In simple terms, we use the answer we got from our fraction and subtract it from each number in our cluster of numbers/data set. Keep in mind when subtracting you will get some negative numbers, but in this scenario we take away any negative sings, so we don't end up with any negative numbers.

8 - 52.6 = -44.6 = 44.6

12 - 52.6 = -40.6 = 40.6

4 - 52.6 = -48.6 = 48.6

3 - 52.6 = -49.6 = 49.6

14 - 52.6 = -38.6 = 38.6

1 - 52.6 = -51.6 = 51.6

9 - 52.6 = -43.6 = 43.6

13 - 52.6 = -39.6 = 39.6

Finally, we need to to the same process we used in our first step, just use the new numbers we have instead of our old numbers.

This gives us 356.8/8, which when divided, will leave us with 44.6.

Therefore, our answer is 44.6
