Answer:
1) Is more representative
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem with his selection is that maybe there are few students participating in certain sport and those students maybe do quite more excercise than the rest (or quite less). This will modify the results because the sample he selected is biased. This problem wont be solved by method 3 or 4, because he is still selecting students that may modify heavily the results with a high probability
This problem will also appear if he choose a sample by class. Maybe, in a class there are quite few students, and selecting from class will make those students appear quite more often than, lets say, a 7th grade student selected at random, therefore the selection is biased in this case as well.
If he has a list with all seventh grade students, each student is equallly likely to be selected and as a consequence, the the results wont be biased. Approach 1 is the best one.
Answer:
He can give 4 friends pieces of a candy bar.
Step-by-step explanation:
Each person has to have exactly 3/4 a candy bar.
If you divide all 3 1/2 candy bars into fourths, you will have 14 pieces.
So then, take out portions of 3 at a time, so take out 3 of these pieces, you have one friend. Take out another 3 pieces you now took 6 out and gave to 2 friends. Take another three and you've taken out 9 pieces for 3 friends. Take one more set of 3 pieces you now have taken out 12 pieces for 4 friends. There are only 2 more pieces left which is not enough for another friend so you have 4 friends that got some chocolate.
Hope this helps!! :)
Ok so he had to pay (i'll say 17 because it's easier to type but understand it's 16.99) 17 dollars up front, and he paid 0.88x, x being miles driven. This means for how many miles he's driven, the equation would look like 17 + 0.88x. Set this equal to 203.55 to find out how many miles he drove. Solving this you get 212 miles.
Answer:
x = 9.1
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 16^2 = 18.4^2
x^2 + 256 = 338.56
x^2 = 82.56
x = 9.1
