A study in El Paso, Texas, looked at seat belt use by drivers. Drivers were observed at randomly chosen convenience stores. Afte
r they left their cars, they were invited to answer questions that included questions about seat belt use. In all, 75% said they always used seat belts, yet only 61.5% were wearing seat belts when they pulled into the store parking lots. Explain the reason for the bias observed in responses to the survey. Do you expect bias in the same direction in most surveys about seat belt use?
The answers will always be bias. This is due to the fact that for someone to say no, would be self incrimination. Though there will be exceptions for those who do not care, or who are just honest, the 25%.
The decimal 0.25 represents the fraction 25/100. Decimal fractions always have a denominator based on a power of 10. We know that 5/10 is equivalent to 1/2 since 1/2 times 5/5 is 5/10. Therefore, the decimal 0.5 is equivalent to 1/2 or 2/4, etc.
The two coordinates' x variables are the same, while the y variables change. This means that it is reflected over the x axis. Reflecting over the y axis would cause a change in the x variable, as it would have to move sideways, so this can't be the case since the x variable stays as 4 even after the reflection.
