There are a total of 297 students in the 7th grade. Rough estimates would say that about half of that number are boys and half are girls. Asking only 50 random girls would be biased because not only would it not be all of the girls (the number of girls would be around 148 or 149) but it would also be ignoring the roughly 148 to 149 boys there are on estimate. The sample would be biased because it would be ignoring the opinions of more than half the seventh grade.

56
Step-by-step explanation:
56
Answer:
The temp is increasing
Step-by-step explanation:
I just did it
We need to do a system of equations here.
x + y = 275 (if you travel <em>x</em> km by bike and <em>y </em>km by bus, then you travel 275 km as given in the problem)
y = x + 55 (the problem stated that they were bussed (y) the amount they biked plus 55 more km (x + 55))
The second equation is already solved for y. So, we can plug it in to the first equation.
x + (x + 55) = 275
2x + 55 = 275 [combine x terms]
2x = 220 [subtract 55 from both sides]
x = 110 [divide by 2 to isolate x and solve for it]
Now we know that x is 110, the distance they traveled by bike.
And that's what we needed to answer the problem!
Answer:
2.5 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the answer because you will need to add both of their times together then divide it by 2. You divide it by two because there are 2 people.
