Washington High wants to estimate the number of seniors who plan to go to a 4-year college. Answer the following. (a) Which of the following surveys probably would best represent the entire population of seniors? 50 student council members are randomly selected; 44 plan to go to a 4-year college. 50 seniors are randomly selected; 32 plan to go to a 4-year college. 50 honor roll students are randomly selected from the senior class; 40 plan to go to a 4-year college. (b) There are 950 seniors at Washington High. Using your answer from part (a), estimate the number of seniors who plan to go to a 4-year college. seniors

a. -0.3 > -0.33

step-by-step explanation:

i found the life tables for the year 2012. 

life table of males at age 30. probability of dying between ages x and x+1

total population:  

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001030

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001061

males:  

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001420

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001448

white population

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001005

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001037

white males

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001372

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001399

non hispanic white population

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001083

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001116

non hispanic white males

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001477

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001503

jacob, non hispanic white male. 30 years old.

probability that jacob lives to be 30 years old. 

since the given probabilities are probabilities of dying, i think we simply subtract it from 1 to get the probability of living. we will use the probability of non hispanic white male.

                                          probability of living to be 30 y.o.

29 - 30 : 1 - 0.001477 = 0.998523

30 - 31 : 1 - 0.001503 = 0.998497

127

whether it's diameter, or radius, i believe if i remember correctly from school, every amount has to always add up to 180. so if you take 53, and starting adding, long story short, taking 127 and adding it to 53, gives you 180.

b. f(x) = –√x + 3this is the correct answer
