Systematic random samples are often used to choose a sample of apartments in a large building or dwelling units in a block at the last stage of a multistage sample. An example will illustrate the idea of a systematic sample. Suppose that we must choose 5 addresses out of 125. Because 125/5=25, we can think of the list as five lists of 25 addresses. Choose 1 of the first 25 at random, using software or Table B. The sample contains this address and the addresses 25, 50, 75, and 100 places down the list from it. If 13 is chosen, for example, then the systematic random sample consists of the addresses numbered 13, 38, 63, 88, and 113. (a) A study of dating among college students wanted a sample of 200 of the 8000 single male students on campus. The sample consisted of every 40th name from a list of the 8000 students. Explain why the survey chooses every 40th name.
(b) Use software or Table B at line 112 to choose the starting point for this systematic sample.

i used to know but i learned it a long time ago sorry

step-by-step explanation:

geometric series converge the common ratio r has magnitude less than one.

which is equivalent to

for the example we need

|2-x| < 1

-1 < 2-x   and 2-x < 1

x < 3 and x > 1

we can write that

answer: 1 < x < 3

1a. common ratio r=250/25=10 > 1     diverges

1b.   r=50/100=1/2 converges

when these converge they converge to

where a is the first term.

answer: 200

1c. r=-1   so it's not the case that |r| < 1.     diverges

2a. x is the common ratio so we converge when |x|< 1

2b.   r=-10x / -2 = 5x.

we converge when

|5x| < 1

|x| < 1/5

2c.   r=3-2x

-1 < 3-2x and 3-2x < 1

-4 < -2x and 2 < 2x

x < 2 and 1 < x

1 < x < 2

2d. [/tex] r=-48x^3/12 = 4x^3[/tex]

|4x^3| < 1

|x^3| < \frac 1 4

|x| < 4^{-1/3}

pakistan's principal natural resources are arable land and water. about 25% of pakistan's agriculture accounts for about 21% [1] of gdp and employs about 43% of the labour force. in pakistan, the most agricultural province is punjab where wheat and cotton are the most grown.

answer: the answer is one

step-by-step explanation:

pemdas, in this situation there is no parenthesis or exponents so you go to multiplication, 1x1=1, then division 1/1= 1 then addition 1+1=2 then subtraction 2-1=1
