This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the complete question:
Kareem wants to find the number of hours the average sixth-grader at his school practices an instrument each week. Which is the best way Kareem can get a representative sample?
A. He can randomly survey 50 boys in the school.
B. He can survey 30 students in the school band.
C. He can randomly survey 50 6th graders in the school.
D. He can survey 20 friends from his neighborhood.
The correct answer is C. He can randomly survey 50 6th graders in the school.
Explanation:
A representative sample is a portion of a population that shows the characteristics of all the population. In this context, for a sample to be representative it needs to include only individuals of the population that is studied. Also, ideally, individuals should be selected randomly as this guarantees the sample is not influenced by the researcher. According to this, option C is the best as this is the only one that focuses on the target population (6th graders) and the sample is random, which contributes to the sample being objective and representing the behavior of 6th-graders.
Answer:
7/12 in exact form
Step-by-step explanation:
I think you just multiply the numerator by the resipical of the denominator.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
THe slope of a straight line is given by the formula:
Where
m is the slope
x_1 and y_1 are the first coordinate pair points [(2,3)]
x_2 and y_2 are the second coordinate pair point [(8,6)]
So, we know that:
x_1 = 2
x_2 = 8
y_1 = 3
y_2 = 6
Now we substitute and find the value of slope to be:
(x-2) + (x-1) + x + (x+1) + (x-2) + (x+3) = 447
6x + 3 = 447
6x = 447 - 3
6x = 444
x = 444/6
x = 74
