The correct answer is C. Sample survey
Explanation:
A sample survey is a study method that involves selecting a portion of a population and asking questions to these individuals to know their opinions or insights about a particular situation. Additionally, the answers provided by the selected individuals are used to make conclusions about all the population. This method is the one used in the situation described because the store manager selects only some customers to know about the sales they prefer and would likely use this information to know the preferences of all the customers.
Answer:
X= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Katie is 6 years old and Thomas is 3 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that we should let K and T be the current ages of two siblings, Katie and Thomas.
If Katie is currently twice the age of Thomas then,
K = 2T
and in 6 years, Katie will be 4 times Thomas's current age then
K + 6 = 4T
Solving both equations simultaneously by substituting the value of K given in the first equation into the second
2T + 6 = 4T
Collect like terms
6 = 4T - 2T
6 = 2T
Divide both sides by 2
T = 3
Recall that K = 2T
K = 2 * 3
= 6
Hence Katie is 6 years old while Thomas is 3 years old
