Answer:

Response bias

Step-by-step explanation:

Response bias means: anything in a survey that influences responses. In this situation the question is "Do you favor harsher penalties for individuals who sell guns illegally?" The person is asking a very specific question rather than allowing it to be broad. The scenario is that the surveyor wanted tot estimate the percentage of people who favor just stricter gun laws in general and not within the limits of illegally sold guns. If he were to ask "Do you favor stricter penalties for buying/selling guns?" then it would fit the guidelines of the initial estimate. hope this makes sense :)

I need to find the surface area for this one pls help me
Alex

Step-by-step explanation:

so, you got the volume but don't know how to find the surface area ? that is strange for me. what's the problem ?

the surface of a cube or rectangular prism consists of 6 sides that split (for a rectangular prism) into 3 pairs of equal sides :

top and bottom

left and right

front and back

all we need to do is calculate the areas of these 6 rectangles and add them up. that's it.

in our case

top and bottom : 5×4 × 2 = 20×2 = 40 in²

left and right : 4×4 × 2 = 16×2 = 32 in²

front and back : 5×4 × 2 = 40 in²

so, in total, the whole surface area of the prism is

40 + 32 + 40 = 112 in²

a computer and printer a totoal cost $1132 the cost of the computer is three times the cost of the ptinter
zavuch27 [327]
Use a system of equations

C+P=1132
3P=C

Substitute C in first equation as
3P+P=1132
Simplify
4P=1132
Solve
P=1132/4
P=283

NOW SOLVE FOR C SUBSTITUTING P VALUE IN FIRST EQUATION

C+283=1132
C=1132-283
C=849


Printer = 283$
Computer = 849$
