(a) Animals by popularity; Dogs, Cats, Others, Horses.
(b) If 250 students were interviewed, 20 students have other pets.
(c) No, it was incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; We arrange the different pets in chronological order, from the highest percent to the lowest percent;
1. Dogs - 67%,
2. Cats - 20%
3. Others - 8%,
4. Horses - 1%.
None is not included in this list.
Step 2; If 250 students were interviewed, 8% of those have other pets. So we need to calculate how much 8% of 250 is.
8% of 250 = × 250 = 0.08 × 250 = 20.
So 20 students had other pets.
Step 3; 20% of the interviewed students had cats. If 75 students had cats, we need to equate 20% to the 75 and find out how many students were actually interviewed.
20% × x = 75, 0.2 × x = 75,
x = = 375.
So if 375 students were interviewed, 75 students would have cats. So the estimate of 250 students being interviewed is incorrect.
Answer is option C
Mr. Jones jogs the same route each day. The amount of time he jogs is inversely proportional to his jogging rate.
k is the constant of proportionality
We check with each option and identify which option gives us same K value
(a) 4 mph for 2.5 hours and 6 mph for 3.75 hours
so k = 10
so k = 22.5
K values are not same
(b) 3 mph for 2 hours and 4.5 mph for 3 hours
so k = 6
so k = 13.5
K values are not same
(c) 4 mph for 2.5 hours and 5 mph for 2 hours
so k = 10
so k =10
K values are same .
Answer is option C
