To get a close estimate, we can round 49 up to 50 and 311 down to 300, obtaining an estimate of 50/300 = 1/6, or 0.1666... as a repeating decimal. That decimal approximation is a little less than one hundredth away from the actual decimal approximation of ≈ 0.1576

Answer:
36 feet squared
Step-by-step explanation:
Finding the perimeter of an object is adding all of the sides together. If the width of the rug is 6 feet then we know that there are two sides that length. Add those together.
6 feet + 6 feet = 12 feet
You would subtract the number you get from the perimeter.
24 feet - 12 feet = 12 feet
And then divide the number by the number of sides left, 2, to get each of their lengths.
12 feet / 2 feet = 6 feet
To find the area of a rectangle you multiply length times width, which in this case both are 6 feets.
6 feet x 6 feet = 36 feet squared
Answer:
In this case, the 30% represents the proportion of the sample. It is a statistic that can be used to estimate a parameter of the population.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, the 30% represents the proportion of this specific sample (survey taken by the magazine).
It is a statistic that can be used to estimate a parameter of the population. In this case, it may be used to estimate the true proportion of "people in New York who believe that the Yankees will miss the playoffs this year".
If a new sample is taken, a new statistic will be calculated that may or may not be equal to 30%.
