You want to estimate the number of students in your middle school school who buy school lunch. Which sample is unbiased?
Nezavi [6.7K]
A biased example: Asking students who are in line to buy lunch 

An unbiased example: Asking students who are leaving/going to lunch(<em>NOT buying </em><em>lunch</em><em />).

But in this case, the answer choices can be... confusing.
Don't panic! You're given numbers and, of course, your use of logic.

Answer choice A: 100 students grades 6-8
Answer choice B: 20-30 students any <em>one</em> grade<em></em><em>
</em>Answer choice C: 5 students
<em></em>Answer choice D: 50 students grade 8

An unbiased example would be to choose students from <em>any grade.</em> So we can eliminate choices B and D.

Now, the question wants to <em>estimate how many people at your middle school buy lunch.</em> This includes the whole entire school, and if you are going to be asking people, you aren't just going to assume that if 5 people out of 5 people you asked bought lunch, the whole school buys lunch.

So, to eliminate all bias and/or error by prediction, answer choice A, the most number of students, is your answer.

c = unknown

a = 4c

120 = 2a + 2c

120 = 2(4c) + 2c

120 = 8c + 2c

120 = 10c

120/10 = 10c/10

c = 12

Translate the following verbal statement into an algebraic expression. Use x for your variable.
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

<u>x²/11 + 8</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We can decipher this algebraic expression going step by step.

1) "Eight more", meaning +8 (we can add this on later).

2) The "quotient of a number (x) squared and eleven", a quotient by definition means the answer to a quantity divided by another. The quantity in this case being x² divided by 11 (so, x²/11).

3) We can combine both of these, getting x²/11 + 8.

Your expression is x²/11 + 8.

- Similarly, you could reposition this equation like 8 + x²/11 (due to the communicative property of addition). Both answers would be acceptable.
