Answer:
y = -3/4x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -3/4x + b
1 = (-3/4) × -4 + b
1 = 3 + b
-2 = b
b = -2
y = -3/4x -2
Option 1:
<span>Measuring the heights of every fiftieth person on the school roster to determine the average heights of the boys in the school
</span>
Comment: this might not be a good idea for fairness as we only wish to determine average height of the boys. Taking a group of 50 people randomly, might not give us the same number of boys every time.
Option 2:
<span>Calling every third person on the soccer team’s roster to determine how many of the team members have completed their fundraising assignment
Comment: The context doesn't seem to need a sampling. The number of players in a soccer team is considerably small. We can find exact data by asking in person.
Option 3:
</span><span>
Observing every person walking down Main Street at 5 p.m. one evening to determine the percentage of people who wear glasses
</span>
Comment: To get a more accurate result and fairer sampling, the period of observing could have been longer, for example, observing for 12 hours on that day, or an alternative is to observe at 5 pm for 7 days in a row. It could happen that no one walking down the Main street precisely at 5 pm wears glasses, or it could happen the other way around.
Option 4:
<span>Sending a confidential e-mail survey to every one-hundredth parent in the school district to determine the overall satisfaction of the residents of the town taking a poll in the lunch room (where all students currently have to eat lunch) to determine the number of students who want to be able to leave campus during lunch.
Comment: This sampling does fairly represent the population, although it might be an idea to scale down the sample population, i.e. every fiftieth parent.
Answer: Option 4</span>
The motorist can travel 25.92 miles on one gallon of gas
Half the numbers on the die are even so you have a 1/2 probability of getting an even number. There is also. 1/2 probability of getting heads on a coin flip.
To find the probability of both happening, multiply the probability of each together:
1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4
The probability of getting an even number and heads is 1/4
