Suppose that you are interested in studying how successful public defenders representing defendants who are accused of having committed a particular crime in the state of North Carolina are. You wish to understand what percent of defendants accused of this crime are represented by a public defender. You observe that the sampling design used by your colleagues to select defendants is to randomly select 56 of the home phone numbers listed by defendants. This is a problem because naturally some portion of these defendants are currently jailed and will not be able to answer the phone if they are selected for the sample. Although there could be multiple problems with this sampling design, the described flaw most clearly indicates that there will be:

there are no short passages to look at

step-by-step explanation:

if you want to solve percent error follow these steps.

1. subtract the accepted value from the experimental value.

2. take the absolute value of step 1.

3. divide that answer by the accepted value.

4. multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

if you want to solve percent of change just do this.

1. work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

2. divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. if your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease.

x = 2

step-by-step explanation:

if sr parallel to ba then the sides bc and ac are in proportion, that is

= ← substitute values

= ( cross- multiply )

27x = 6(4x + 1)

27x = 24x + 6 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

3x = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 2
