We are interested in knowing more about the number of hours students study for ST 311 each week. We know that there are 800 students enrolled in the course, with 35 students per section. We also know that ST 311 students study 10 hours a week on average, and that the standard deviation is 2 hours. We randomly sample 40 students taking the course, and record the average number of hours that they study per week. What is the sample size? A. 35 B. 40 C. 100 D. 800

B. 40

Step-by-step explanation:

What do you understand by sample size; a sample size is a little portion of a large number we which to investigate. Imagine we wanted to know the electricity consumption of people in a town of 200million people sometimes we could do that be investigating that of 50million especially when you know the conditions would be no different from others. In this sense the sample size is 50 million because that's the one we are investigating.

Similarly our concern of interest for investigation is 40, so that's the sample size.

the image of (6, 9) under a dilation is (4, 6). the scale factor is

(x3 + 6x2 + 2x - 6) • (x - 1)

step-by-step explanation:

polynomial long division :

3.2     polynomial long division

dividing :   x4+5x3-4x2-8x+6

                              ("dividend")

by         :     x-1     ("divisor")

dividend     x4   +   5x3   -   4x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * x3     x4   -   x3            

remainder         6x3   -   4x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * 6x2         6x3   -   6x2        

remainder             2x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * 2x1             2x2   -   2x    

remainder               -   6x   +   6

- divisor   * -6x0               -   6x   +   6

remainder                     0

quotient :   x3+6x2+2x-6   remainder:   0
