Parents of children with developmental disorders can apply for federal funding, to help pay for psychosocial rehabilitation. A sociologist working for the annual Current Population Survey wants to know the percentage of applicants for this funding who are in poverty. She needs a sample of applicants from across the U. S., so she groups all of the applications by state and randomly selects applicants from each state. . Identify the population of interest to the sociologist. a. Applicants for the federal funding who were in poverty
b. Applicants for the federal funding
c. Applicants who received the federal funding
d. Applicants whose applications were examined

b. Applicants for the federal funding

Step-by-step explanation:

Sampling

This is a common statistics practice, when we want to study something from a population, we find a sample of this population.

For example:

I want to estimate the proportion of New York state residents who are Buffalo Bills fans. So i ask, lets say, 1000 randomly selected New York state residents wheter they are Buffalo Bills fans, and expand this to the entire population of New York State residents, which is the population of interest.

In this question:

She takes a sample of applicants for the federal funding from the US, which means that the population of interest is all applicants for the federal funding in the US. The correct answer is given by option b.

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3
