Suppose a telephone poll is conducted by contacting U.S. citizens via landlines about their view of gay marriage. Suppose over 50% of those called do not support gay marriage. Does that mean that you can say over 50% of all people in the U.S. do not support gay marriage? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The only people who were contacted were those with a landline, which is not the entire U.S. Because of the cell phone, there are many in the U.S. who do not own a landline, so this does not represent the entire U.S. population.

Answer 2
If over 50% said they do not support gay marriages then yes you can say that because it is factually correct. If the facts were less than 50% you could NOT say that because it is not factually correct. If EXACTLY 50% said they do not support then you would say neither more or less than 50% because it would not be factually correct.

Answer: -20

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up an equations with the conditions we are given. Let's use x for the missing number.

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

2x-8=3x+12

-20=x

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

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

sum is addition

difference is subtraction

2 is multiply by2

solve 2(x-4) =3(x+4) distribute on both sides

2x - 8 = 3x + 12 add 8 on both sides

2x = 3x + 20 subtract 3x on both sides

-x = 20 multiply by -1

x = -20

Answer:

See the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse (diagonal, longest side) of the triangle.

We can see that the legs are labeled 15 (blue) and 8 (red). Substitute that into the equation.

(8)^2 + (15) ^2 = c^2

From there, we can simplify and solve for c.

64 + 225 = c^2. Add.

289 = c^2. Take the square root.

c = 17.

I hope this helps!

Answer: 17

Pro tip: 3/4/5, 5/12/13 and 8/15/17 are the first three Pythagorean Triples on the list and teachers like to use them for problems.  The multiples also come up, like 6/8/10.  Learn these and save yourself some calculation down the road.

Let's do it like they want

a² + b² = c²

8² + 15² = c²

64 + 225  = c²

289 = c²

√289 = √c²

17 = c

Answers

Answer:

384 3/4

341 1/4

box A

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the box is given by the formula:

Volume = length * width * height

The volume of the box A is:

Volume_A = 9.5 * 3 * 13.5 = 384.75 cm3 = 384 3/4 cm3

The volume of the box B is:

Volume_B = 10 * 3.25 * 10.5 = 341.25 cm3 = 341 1/4 cm3

The volume of the box A is greater than the volume of the box B, so Megan should use the box A

1. Focus is at (0,7) and the Directrix is y = 1.
a) Sketch the parabola.
b) What are the coordinates of the vertex?

Answers

Answer:

a) see the attached file

b) Coordinates of vertex = (0, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Focus of parabola is [tex](0,7)[/tex] and the directrix is [tex]y=1[/tex]

To sketch: the parabola

To find: coordinates of the vertex

Solution:

As the focus lies on the y-axis and y-coordinate of the focus is positive,

equation of parabola is [tex](x-h)^2=4p(y-k)[/tex]

Here, [tex](h,k)[/tex] denotes the vertex of parabola, focus is [tex](h,k+p)[/tex] and the directrix is [tex]y=k-p[/tex]

According to question,

[tex](h,k+p)=(0,7)[/tex]

[tex]k-p=1[/tex]

So, [tex]h=0[/tex]

[tex]k+p=7\,,\,k-p=1[/tex]

On adding these equations,

[tex]k+p+k-p=7+1\\2k=8\\k=4[/tex]

Put [tex]k=4[/tex] in [tex]k+p=7[/tex]

[tex]4+p=7\\p=7-4\\p=3[/tex]

So, equation of parabola is [tex](x-0)^2=4(3)(y-4)\Rightarrow x^2=12(y-4)[/tex]

For part a), see the attached file.

b)

Coordinates of vertex = [tex](h,k)=(0,4)[/tex]

________km

Answers

Answer:

[tex]9*10^{12}km[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]9,460,730,472,580.8 km[/tex]

First, we can work out 5% of our number, by multiplying it by 0.05

[tex]9,460,730,472,580.8 * 0.05 = 473,036,523,629[/tex]

Now, if we add and subtract our 5% calculated from our original number, we can work out the minimum and maximum value that our final answer can be in the range of.

[tex]9,460,730,472,580.8 + 473,036,523,629 = 9.933767*10^{12}\\9,460,730,472,580.8 - 473,036,523,629 =8.98769395*10^{12}[/tex]

We can see that [tex]9*10^{12}[/tex] is in the range of valid answers, as:

[tex]8.9*10^{12} \leq 9*10^{12} \leq 9.9 * 10^{12}[/tex]

So, our final answer is:

What is inequalities?

In mathematics, inequalities specify the connection between two non-equal numbers. Equal does not imply inequality. Typically, we use the "not equal symbol ()" to indicate that two values aren't equal. But several inequalities are utilised to compare the numbers, whether they're less than or higher than.

The different inequality representations, properties, and methods for resolving linear inequalities throughout one variable or two variables will all be covered in this article along with examples. The inequality given is y> fx+5, if we plot the graph of the two inequalities, the graph of the inequalities will never meet at any point.

Therefore, the inequalities have no solution since their graph does not intersect or overlap.
