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

x=-28
Step-by-step explanation:
you multiply the number first
and you calculate
then you move constant to the right
you changes the sign

=(x + 4)*(x + 7)*(x - 4)
Answer:
27 miles in the morning and 85 miles in the afternoon.
Explanation:
Let m be the number of miles they rode in the morning. They rode 4 more than 3 times this many in the afternoon; this gives us the expression
3m+4
to represent the miles ridden in the afternoon.
Together they rode 112 miles; this means we add the morning miles, m, to the afternoon miles, 3m+4, and get 112:
m+3m+4 = 112
Combine like terms:
4m+4 = 112
Subtract 4 from each side:
4m+4-4= 112-4
4m = 108
Divide both sides by 4:
4m/4 = 108/4
m = 27
They rode 27 miles in the morning.
That means in the afternoon, they rode
3m+4 = 3(27)+4 = 81+4 = 85 miles.
Answer:
4:24 p.m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Figure out how often the buses leave at the same time. This is the same as the least common multiple (LCM) of how often they leave the stadium.
The LCM is found by multiplying the maximum number of each prime factor found in any of the numbers.
The prime factors of a number are found by dividing it by whole numbers until the factors are all prime. Prime numbers only have the factors 1 and itself.
6 = 2 X 3
8 = 2 X 2 X 2
The greatest times 2 repeats is three times.
The greatest times 3 repeats is one time.
2 X 2 X 2 X 3 = 24
The LCM is 24, and the buses have the same leaving times every 24 minutes.
Find 24 minutes after 4:00 p.m. Change the minutes only, which are the numbers right of the colon : .
The buses will next leave together at 4:24 p.m.
