Answer:
x=-1/39
Step-by-step explanation:
A voter receives a call in which the caller claims to be conducting a national opinion research poll. The voter is asked if his or her opinion about a congressional candidate would change if he or she knew that the candidate once had a car crash while driving under the influence of alcohol. Identify and explain at least one source of bias in the study described. Then suggest how the bias might have been avoided?
a. The data do not seem to support the claims being made by the study. The researcher should consult an expert to make sure that he or she is correctly interpreting the data.
b. The study does not appear to have a well-defined goal. The researcher should determine his or her goal and precisely define the variables of interest.
c. Since the sample is self-selected, there is a definite participation bias in this study. The researcher should randomly select the subjects of the study.
d. The wording of the question is biased to strengthen opposition against a particular candidate. The question wording should be changed to be more neutral.
Answer:
The correct answer is D. The wording of the question is biased to strengthen opposition against a particular candidate. The question wording should be changed to be more neutral.
Step-by-step explanation:
The phrasing and setup of the poll will produce responses that are biased against the candidate. The setup of the poll should be changed to avoid influencing the opinions of the respondents.
The student council is hosting a drawing to raise money for scholarships. They are selling tickets for $9 each and will sell 500 tickets. There is one $2,000 grand prize, four $400 second prizes, and sixteen $10 third prizes. You just bought a ticket. Find the expected value for your profit. Round to the nearest cent.
Answer:
expected profit = $-1.48
Step-by-step explanation:
The required expected value can be solved below.
The total number of ticket they will sell = 500 tickets.
So,
expected profit = expected return - expected cost
1 grand price of 2000 = 1/500 × 2000 = 4
4 second price of $400 = 4/500 × 400 = 3.2
16 third price of $10 = 16/500 × 10 = 0.32
expected return = 4 + 3.2 + 0.32 = $7.52
expected cost = $9
expected profit = expected return - expected cost
expected profit = 7.52 - 9
expected profit = $-1.48

Answer:
A =12.56 m^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the area of a circle with radius 4
A = pi r^2
A = 3.14 * 4^2
A =50.24
Since this is 1/4 of the circle, multiply by 1/4
A = 1/4 * 50.24
A =12.56 m^2
Answer:
12.56
Step-by-step explanation:
the formula for the area of a circle is the following:
[tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex]
so divide that formula by 4 to get a quarter and plug in the radius for r.
[tex](\pi )(4^2)/4= 12.56[/tex]
Simplify the expression. Write the answer using scientific notation. (7 × 105)2 a. 4.9 × 1010 b. 4.9 × 1011 c. 4.9 × 109 d. 49 × 1010
Answer:
b. 4.9 × 1011
Step-by-step explanation:
Using scientific notation is similar to expressing in standard form. Given that (7 × 105)2
We open the parenthesis. This may first be expressed as
7² × 10⁽⁵⁾²
Then expand,
= 49 × 10¹⁰
To put in scientific notation, 49 = 4.9 × 10
Hence the expression becomes
= 4.9 × 10 × 10¹⁰
Using the laws of indices
= 4.9 × 10¹¹ in scientific notation

A prism is filled with 3 layers of cubes. Each layer has 25 cubes. The volume of each cube is 1 cubic inch. What is the volume of the prism?
Answer:
The volume of the prism is 75 cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the prism is the amount of space contained on the interior of the prism.
Now we have that this entire space is filled with cubes of defined volumes. Therefore, to get the volume of the prism, we can simply get the total volume occupied by all the cubes. This should give us our answer.
From the information we are given, we know that the there are 3 layers of cubes each containing 25 cubes.
This gives the total number of cubes to be 3 X 25 = 75 cubes in total
We also know that the volume of 1 cube is 1 cubic inch.
Hence the volume of 75 cubes will be 75 X 1 cubic inch = 75 cubic inches.
A soccer field is a rectangle 90 meters wide and 120 meters long. The coach asks players to run from one corner to the other corner diagonally across. What is this distance?
Answer:
150
Step-by-step explanation:
If you draw a diagram, this will be a rectangle and the line across cuts it into a right triangle, with a base of 120 and a height of 90. The need to know the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle, so we can use the pythagorean theorem.

Question 14
For the following system of equations, determine how many solutions there are.
6x + y = -1 and -6x - 4y = 4
Answer:
The system of equations has a one unique solution
Step-by-step explanation:
To quickly determine the number of solutions of a linear system of equations, we need to express each of the equations in slope-intercept form, so we can compare their slopes, and decide:
1) if they intersect at a unique point (when the slopes are different) thus giving a one solution, or
2) if the slopes have the exact same value giving parallel lines (with no intersections, and the y-intercept is different so there is no solution), or
3) if there is an infinite number of solutions (both lines are exactly the same, that is same slope and same y-intercept)
So we write them in slope -intercept form:
First equation:
[tex]6x+y=-1\\y=-6x-1[/tex]
second equation:
[tex]-6x-4y=4\\-6x=4y+4\\-6x-4=4y\\y=-\frac{3}{2} x-1[/tex]
So we see that their slopes are different (for the first one slope = -6, and for the second one slope= -3/2) and then the lines must intercept in a one unique point. Therefore the system of equations has a one unique solution.

6x +7y=-46 3x-2y=32 solve this system of linear equations
Hello
We have two equations and need to find x and y
(1) 6x+7y=-46
(2) 3x-2y=32
multiply (2) by 2 it gives
(2') 6x-4y=64
(1) - (2') gives
6x+7y-6x+4y=-46-64 = -110
so 11y = -110
y = -10
replace in (2) it gives
3x+20=32
3x=12
x = 12/3 = 4
the solution is (4,-10)

Which are steps that could be used to solve 0 = 9(x2 + 6x) – 18 by completing the square? Check all that apply. 18 + 81 = 9(x2 + 6x + 9) 18 + 9 = 9(x2 + 6x + 9) 18 + 36 = 9(x2 + 6x + 36) 11 = (x + 3)2 StartRoot 342 EndRoot = (x + 6)2 StartRoot 99 EndRoot = (x + 3)2
Answer:
18 + 81 = 9(x² + 6x + 9)
11 = (x + 3)²
When we are completing the square, we are going to move the value of c across the equals. We will do that by adding, and end up with
18=9(x²+6x)
We take the value of b (the coefficient of x), divide it by 2 and square it:
(6/2)²=3²=9
This is the value that completes the square. However, since the entire square is multiplied by 9, this value must be multiplied by 9 before we can add it across the equals:
18+9(9) = 9(x²+6x+9)
18+81=9(x²+6x+9)
99=9(x²+6x+9)
Dividing both sides by 9, we have:
11=x²+6x+9
11=(x+3)²
Answer:
18 + 81 = 9(x2 + 6x + 9) and 11 = (x + 3)2

Answer: h = -(16t + 3)(t - 2)
h(0) = 6
h(1) = 19
h(2) = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor the equation by finding two numbers whose
product = a×c and sum = b, then replace the b value with those two numbers and factor the equation.
h = -16t² + 29t + 6
a=-16 b=29 c=6 a×c = -96 b = 29
32 × -3 = 96 32 + (-3) = 29
h = -16t² + 32t -3t + 6
h = -16t(t - 2) -3(t - 2)
h = (-16t - 3) (t - 2)
h = -(16t + 3)(t - 2)
h(0) = -[16(0) + 3] [0 - 2]
= -(3)(-2)
= 6
h(1) = -[16(1) + 3] [1 - 2]
= -(19)(-1)
= 19
h(2) = -[16(2) + 3] [2 - 2]
= -(35)(0)
= 0

Explanation:
Start at the point (0,0) which is the origin. Move up 2 units then to the right 3 units to arrive at the next blue point (3,2). We see that
rise = 2
run = 3
slope = rise/run = 2/3
----------
If you want to use the slope formula, then you would say
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (2 - 0)/(3 - 0)
m = 2/3
I used the two points (0,0) and (3,2). You could use any two points you like on this line.
Side note: The slope is positive because we are moving uphill as you move from left to right along this orange line.
The slope of the line p is given by 2/3.
What is Slope of a Straight line?The tangent value of the angle which the straight line makes with the positive X axis is called the slope of that particular straight line.
If s line passes through two points (a,b) and (c,d) then the slope of the line (m) is given by,
m = (d-b)/(c-a)
Here in the given figure we can see that the given line p passes through (3,2), (-3,-2) and the origin (0,0)
then taking any two points out of that three (3,2), (0,0) we get, the slope of p is given by,
m = (2-0)/(3-0) = 2/3
Hence slope of line p is given by 2/3.

Step-by-step explanation:
Supplementary angles completes each other to 180°
if the teo angles are supplementary here the the sum of 10x - 5 + 35 should be 180°
10x - 5 + 35 = 180
10x + 30 = 180
