Answer:

3d + 4p = $37.25

5d + 2p = $38.75

Actual Answer:

Bag of popcorn is $5

A drink is $5.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let drinks = d

Let popcorn = p

Noah: 3d + 4p = $37.25

Other: 5d + 2p = $38.75

Choose a variable to eliminate (We'll choose p)

3d + 4p = $37.25

(5d + 2p = $38.75) -2

Distribute

-10d - 4p = -77.5

The -4p cancels out the 4p, then we combine

-7d = -40.25

Divide both sides by -7

-7d/-7 = -40.25/-7

d = 5.75

Back to 3d + 4p = $37.25

Substitute d with 5.75

3(5.75) + 4p = $37.25

17.25 + 4p = 37.25

Move the constant to the other side

17.25 + 4p = 37.25

-17.25           -17.25

4p = 20

Divide both sides by 4

4p/4 = 20/4

p = 5

To determine how a city’s residents feel about building a new youth center, a group considers surveying 50 random children at a
Lemur [1.5K]
This would result in a biased sample because:

- the survey is surveying elementary kids about a new youth center

most of those kids are more likely than not to want a youth center, so most of them will naturally agree without a doubt for the need of a youth center

- Even the adults at the elementary school are more likely than not to agree with a new youth center because they are teachers and can even benefit from working at the youth center

- in final words the reason why this survey will be biased is because there is no variety in the participants being tested. It is basically just asking teachers she students their preference, excluding the rest of an entire community
