The best data collection method for the cars  is Experiment as one needs to study the cars that pass the red lights

For one of the three studies, a census is possible in the first one because the study population is the Georgia which is very large.

For the two studies the one that a census is not needed is GMC students and cars at red light because the population is not too big.

Based on the study I will use 500 people, 200 students, or 300 cars and the  sampling technique would be Systematic sampling, Simple random sampling and Judgmental/purposive sampling.

A  Simple random sampling is known to be the easiest method of selecting a sample as every member is known to have an equal chance of being selected in the sample.

Answer:

D, x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]x\left(2+5\right)=63[/tex]

=> divide both side by 7

[tex]\frac{x\left(2+5\right)}{7}=\frac{63}{7}[/tex]

x=9

Answer:

D) 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

⇒ 18 + 45 = x (2 + 5)

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

Simplify both sides :

⇒ 18 + 45 = x (2 + 5)

⇒ 63 = 7x

⇒ 7x = 63

Answer:

(x - 3) is a factor of P(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

if (x - 3) is a factor of P(x) then P(3) = 0

P(3) = 2(3)³ + 5(3)² - 28(3) - 15

      = 2(27) + 5(9) - 84 - 15

      = 54 + 45 - 99

      = 99 - 99

      = 0

since P(3) = 0 then (x - 3) is a factor of P(x)

Answer:  [tex]y^9[/tex]

This is the same as saying y^9

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

Explanation:

When we apply the square root to the expression [tex]a^{2b}[/tex], we end up with [tex]a^b[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{a^{2b}} = a^b[/tex]

The exponent 2b divides in half to get b

Based on that rule, we can then say:

[tex]\sqrt{y^{18}} = y^{18/2} = y^9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

a = hours at job A

b = hours at job B

a + b = 24

a = 24 - b

5.8a + 7.4b = 158.4

note we can use the a = 24 - b identity in the second equation :

5.8×(24 - b) + 7.4b = 158.4

139.2 - 5.8b + 7.4b = 158.4

1.6b = 19.2

b = 12 hours

a = 24 - b = 24 - 12 = 12 hours

she worked 12 hours on job A and 12 hours on job B.

2x - 3y = 7 can be rewritten as y = 2/3x - 7/3, therefore, the equation that is a linear equation is: C. 2x - 3y = 7.

A linear equation is expressed in the slope-intercept form as y = mx + b.

2x - 3y = 7, rewritten in slope-intercept form would be:

-3y = -2x + 7

y = -2x/-3 + 7/-3

y = 2/3x - 7/3

m = 2/3 and b = -7/3

Answer:

z = 86 °

and, x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a straight line is a 180 degree-angle. So, we know that

94 + z must equal 180, because they are the only two angles that make up the straight line.

from this information, (that 94 + z = 180) we can easily find z.

(this is typically an intuitive method of subtracting 94 from 180)

94   +   z   =   180

-94                  -94

z = 86 °

-- we know that the relation between z and (10x + 74) must also be equal to 180, as they make up a straight line

if z = 86, then we can know that (10x + 74) must be equal to

(10x + 74) + 86 =    180

                - 86        -86

(10x + 74) = 94

10x + 74 = 94

      - 74   - 74

  10 x     =    20

÷ 10            ÷ 10

     x    =   2

so, z = 86 °

and, x = 2

Answer:

(-21, 54.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there!

We have two methods to solve this problem.

We will limit ourself to Substitution method.

3x – 2y = -4.................... 1.

4x + 2y = 25................... 2.

First lets manipulate eq.2 in terms of y.

4x + 2y = 25

2y = 25 - 4x

y = 25/2 - 2x .............. eq.3

Substitute eq.3 into eq.1

3x – 2(25/2 -2x) = -4

Solve for x.

Opening the brackets

3x - 25 - 4x = -4

-x = 21

x = -21

Substitute x into equation 3

y = 25/2 - 2x

=> y = 25/2 - 2(-21)

= 54.5

In terms of x and y; (x,y)

= (-21, 54.5)

Complete Question:

A rectangular prism has a length of 7 m, a height of 5 m, and a volume of 140 m³. What is the width? A prism has a length of 7 meters, width of w, and height of 5 meters.

Which steps are correct? Check all that apply.

a) Substitute the known values into the formula: 140 = 7(w)(5).

b) Substitute the known values into the formula: 7 = 140(w)(5).

c) Substitute the known values into the formula: 5 = 7(w)(140).

d) Solve for the unknown: w = 4 m.

e) Solve for the unknown: w = 7 m.

f) Solve for the unknown: w = 2 m.

Answer:

a) Substitute the known values into the formula: 140 = 7(w)(5).

d) Solve for the unknown: w = 4 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps that are correct are Options a) and d). This is because:

Step 1

The volume of a rectangular prism is calculated as:

Volume of a rectangular prism = Length (l) × Width(w) × Height(h)

The unit of the volume or a rectangular prism is in cubic metres (m³)

In the question, we are asked to find the unknown value which is the width and we were given the following known values:

Length = 7 m,

Height = 5 m

Volume = 140 m³

Step 2

Solve for the unknown value( Width)

Volume of a rectangular prism = Length (L) × Width(W) × Height(H)

140m³ = 7m × Width(m) × 5m

140m³ = 35m² × Width(m)

Width(w) = 140m³ ÷ 35m²

Width(w) = 4m

Hence, the unknown Width(w) = 4m

From the above explanation we can see that the correct steps is Option a) and Option d)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of rectangular prism= Length x width x height

V=L x W x H

140=7 x W x 5

140= 35 x w

W= 140/35

W= 4

b + c = 92

Adding the two together

2b = 150

b = 75
