1) A. Biased because the population could be uneven. Too many of one ethnicity, too many of one gender, etc. 

2) I believe this one is C. because there are not enough people. You need to survey the majority of parents instead of a selected few. 

3) There are 80 green marbles per 500, therefore calculate the percentage. \frac{80}{500}=0.16 or 16 percent. Multiply 16 percent or 0.16 times 25. It gives you 4.

4) This one is a probability thing too. For every 500 batteries, there are 3 that are defective, therefore, \frac{3}{500}= 0.006. 

0.006*12000 = 72

5) Yet another one. Add up all the nuts and you get 48. The chance of getting a cashew from these 48 is: \frac{9}{48}=0.1875. 

Therefore: 0.1875*32=6

Answer:

One pair of socks is $370.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sean bought <em>three pairs</em> of the same socks and a shoe polish for $1450. If the

polish cost $340, how much is the cost of <em>one pair</em> of socks.

6x - 340 = 1450

6x = 1450 -340

6x = 1110

2x = 1110 / 3

2x = 370
