1/ 816  

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Assumptions made

Number of students in the school = 18

Number selected randomly = 3

Step 2 :

Calculating number of ways to choose 3 students from a group of 18:

C(18,3)  = 18! /(3!(18-3)!) =  18*17*16/3*2*1 = 816

Ways to choose the youngest 3 students = 1

Hence, the probability of picking the 3 youngest students from this group is  1/ C(18,3) = 1/ 816

What is the product of 2x2 – 3xy + y2 and 2x – 4y?
AnnZ [3900]

Answer:

C. 4x^3 - 14x^2y + 14xy^2 - 4y^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Multiplication of 2x^2 – 3xy + y^2 and 2x – 4y

Multiplication refers to the product

(2x^2 – 3xy + y^2) (2x – 4y)

Expand the brackets

= 4x^3 - 8x^2y - 6x^2y + 12xy^2 + 2xy^2 - 4y^3

Combine like terms

= 4x^3 - 14x^2y + 14xy^2 - 4y^3

The result is

C. 4x^3 - 14x^2y + 14xy^2 - 4y^3

How much profit was generated by the sales of gold label and black label combined?
lawyer [4039]
The profit produced by combining sales of gold label and black label equals the total of their individual profits. From the table \begin{array}{ccc}&\text{Number of bottles sold}&\text{Average profit (per bottle)}\\\text{Gold label}&1,000&\$2.75\end{array} you find the gold label's profit 1,000\cdot \$2.75=\$2,750. and similarly from another table \begin{array}{ccc}&\text{Number of bottles sold}&\text{Average profit (per bottle)}\\\text{Black label}&2,000&\$1.50\end{array} find the black label's profit 2,000\cdot \$1.50=\$3,000.. Adding these yields \$2,750+\$3,000=\$5,750.. Thus, option 5 is the correct choice.

PIT_PIT [3949]

Detailed explanation:

Hello!

Stratified sampling involves the categorization of the population into subgroups based on pre-established criteria for the study. These subgroups consist of homogeneous units concerning the relevant characteristics. In this instance, individuals in the groups will represent only one of the two potential opinions (support or not support) and not both.

The researcher determines the sample size desired, considering several factors such as finances, material availability, and accessibility to experimental subjects (for instance, if they are endangered species, larger sample sizes may not be feasible).

One might conduct proportionate stratified sampling by selecting a proportion of respondents who answered "yes" along with those who answered "no."

In this sampling method, taking a specific proportion from each subgroup allows for a more straightforward extrapolation of results to the overall populations. For example, if you needed a sample size of n = 20, each stratum would ideally contain half, meaning 10 from the “yes” group and 10 from the “no” group.

I hope this is helpful!

Chiang is filling a 50ft container with water at a rate of 0.5 ft/ min. interpret the key features for this situation
Leona [4187]

Answer:

The main aspects are

50ft³ = volume

0.5ft³/min = filling rate

Time= 100 minutes

Step-by-step breakdown:

Chiang is in the process of filling a 50ft container with water at a speed of 0.5 ft/min.

50ft³ = volume

0.5ft³/min = flow rate

It’s important to note that we still need to determine how long it will take to fill the 50 ft³ container.

Time = volume / rate

Time = 50 ft³ / 0.5 ft³/min

Time = 50 / 0.5 min

Time = 100 min

The main aspects are

50ft³ = volume

0.5ft³/min = filling rate

Time= 100 minutes
