"seven times a number" =7x

"difference"= -

"three times a number" = 3x  so

7x-3x

Answer:

(C)7x-3x

Step-by-step explanation:

The given algebraic expression is:

"The difference between seven times a number and three times that number"

Let the number be equal to =x, then according to the statement, we have

seven times a number=7x and three times that number=3x

The difference between seven times a number and three times that number=7x-3x

which is the required algebraic expression.

Hence, option C is correct.

A survey is being conducted to decide on how much time people spend watching sports on television. Tell whether the given sample
Naddika [18.5K]

Sampling bias occurs when some members of a population are systematically more likely to be selected in a sample than others. From this definition,

For sample 1, Every fifth person who enters Little Casesars Arena for a Red Wings game. This is not biased because no person is more likely to be selected than another

For sample 2, Every tenth name in the phone. This is also not biased

because no person is more likely to be selected than another
