Complete Question:

Determine whether the given value is a statistic or a parameter. A sample of 818 adults showed that 39% voted in the past election. Choose the correct answer below.

A. The value is a parameter because it is a numerical measurement describing some characteristic of a parameter sample.

B. The value is a statistic because it is a numerical measurement describing some characteristic of a statistic population.

C. The value is a statistic because it is a numerical measurement describing some characteristic of a statistic sample.

D. The value is a parameter because it is a numerical measurement describing some characteristic of a parameter population.

C. The value is a statistic because it is a numerical measurement describing some characteristic of a statistic sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a sample of 818 adults showed that 39% voted in the past election. Therefore, the value is a statistic because it is a numerical measurement describing some characteristic of a statistic sample.

In Statistics, a sample can be defined as a set of data (individuals, observations or objects) collected from a larger statistical population using specific procedures. Therefore, a sample is a subset or part of population.

The difference between a statistic and a parameter is that; statistic is a numerical measurement describing some characteristic of a statistic sample while parameter is a numerical measurement describing some characteristic of a population.

In this scenario, a sample of 818 adults from the total population showed that 39% voted in the past election. The data collected represents a sample and as such, it is a statistic value.

Answer from: Quest

step-by-step explanation:

draw the shape and you will see that f and k are actually at adjacent vertices (points of the hexagon that are neighboring). so find the distance between (1,2) and (4,2). that is easy since (1,2) and (4,2) is just a vertical distance to count, which is 3. it is a regular polygon which means all sides are congruent. you have 6 sides (hexa) so multiply 6 by 3 to receive 18.

Answer from: Quest

the system of inequity is

$y\leq -x+4$

$3y> x$

step-by-step explanation:

from the given graph it is noticed that we have two related lines. one is solid and another is dashed.

if a line passing through two points, then the equation of line is

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)$

the solid line passing through the points (0,4) and (4,0).

$y-4=\frac{0-4}{4-0}(x-0)$

$y=-x+4$

the related equation of solid line is $y=-x+4$ .

similarly, find the related equation of dashed line. the dashed liune passing through the points (0,0) and (3,1).

$y-0=\frac{0-1}{3-0}(x-0)$

$3y=x$

the related equation of dashed line is $3y=x$

from the given graph it is noticed that the point (0,1) lies on the shaded region, therefore the point (0,1) must be satisfied by the related equations.

check the related equations by the point (0,1).

$1=-0+4$

$1=4$

this statement is true if the sign of inequality is < instead of equality. since it is an solid line therefore the sign of inequality will be $\leq$ . the required inequality is
