Answer:
x = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming all angle measures are in degrees, the sum of them is 180:
(3x +16) +(4x -15) +(2x +8) = 180
9x +9 = 180 . . . . collect terms
x + 1 = 20 . . . . . . divide by 9
x = 19 . . . . . . . . . .subtract 1
The value of x is 19.
<span>x – 12 ≥ 18
Let's break down the sentence and create an inequality from it. We'll use X to represent the number.
"Twelve fewer than a number is at least 18."
The "Twelve fewer than a number" indicates subtraction, so let's do that.
X - 12
"is at least 18." would be a greater than or equal relationship. So we have
X - 12 ≥ 18
And we're done. The desired equation is:
x – 12 ≥ 18</span>

Answer:
B) A random sample may represent the population <em>is your best answer.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that the answer choice says "may", which means that it doesn't <em>always</em> represent the population. Random samples means that they ask random people, and do not have a certain rule that they have to follow (such as recipients can only be a certain race, age, etc.) and that they can ask anybody they meet. This can give not only a higher chance of a general population's opinion, but also makes sure that there is not a high chance of obtaining misleading information.
For example, a random survey would not take place at a rally, in which most of the people would believe the same thing, and would answer fairly the same for the survey. Instead, a random survey may be taken at a busy intersection during the time when most people are out. You must note that though it has the best chance of getting a <em>more accurate</em> representation, it still isn't the most accurate. For the best accuracy, <em>everyone would have to answer the survey in which the survey question would affect</em>.
