Well, if you want to get p by itself, you will have to multiply both sides by 5/2. 2/5 times 5/2 gives you 1p, or just p.
I think it's need to be a graph right?
To find the mean, add up at the numbers and divide by the number of numbers in the set (6)
9 + 4 + 7 + 3 + 10 + 9 =
9 + 11 + 12 + 10
20 + 22
42
42 / 6 = 7
the mean is 7.
Answer: Around 96 people would prefer creamy peanut butter.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the survey was found that 4 out of 5 preferred creamy over chunky peanut butter.
Then the relative frequency is:
4/5 = 0.8 prefer creamy peanut butter.
And we can assume that:
1/5 = 0.2 prefer chunky peanut butter.
We also could multiply these numbers by 100% to obtain the percentage forms:
0.8*100% = 80%
0.2*100% = 20%
Now, if there are 120 people in the grocery store, we can expect that the 80% will prefer creamy peanut butter.
Then we can expect that the number of people that prefers creamy peanut butter is:
N = (80%/100%)*120 = 0.8*120 = 96
Around 96 people would prefer creamy peanut butter.
