A biased example: Asking students who are in line to buy lunch
An unbiased example: Asking students who are leaving/going to lunch(<em>NOT buying </em><em>lunch</em><em />).
But in this case, the answer choices can be... confusing.
Don't panic! You're given numbers and, of course, your use of logic.
Answer choice A: 100 students grades 6-8
Answer choice B: 20-30 students any <em>one</em> grade<em></em><em>
</em>Answer choice C: 5 students
<em></em>Answer choice D: 50 students grade 8
An unbiased example would be to choose students from <em>any grade.</em> So we can eliminate choices B and D.
Now, the question wants to <em>estimate how many people at your middle school buy lunch.</em> This includes the whole entire school, and if you are going to be asking people, you aren't just going to assume that if 5 people out of 5 people you asked bought lunch, the whole school buys lunch.
So, to eliminate all bias and/or error by prediction, answer choice A, the most number of students, is your answer.
Answer: 19 macaroons
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's create an equation to represent this situation. Let x represent the number of macaroons that Em made.
33=x+x+5
33=2x+5
33-5=2x+5-5
28=2x
28/2=2x/2
14=x
This means that Em made 14 macaroons.
14+5=19
Therefore, Jim baked 19 macaroons.
Answer:
um no problem with this is easy
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write
Option C: (0,125) is the y - intercept.
Explanation:
The given function is
We need to determine the y - intercept.
<u>The value of y - intercept:</u>
The y - intercept is the value of y when x = 0
The y - intercept of the function can be determined by substituting x = 0 in the function.
Hence, let us substitute x = 0 in the function , we have,
Simplifying the terms, we get;
Thus, the value of y is 125.
Hence, the y - intercept is 125.
Therefore, the coordinates of the y - intercept are (0,125)
Hence, Option C is the correct answer.
