Answer: Sample is biased

Step-by-step explanation:

In her experiment, Gloria assumes that the reading habits of the students in her school district are exactly the same to that of students in all state schools. This assumption is unlikely to be true and, therefore, this statistic is misleading because the sample used is biased.

From her data, all Gloria can do is report the percentage of students that read more than one book per month in her school district

Rugs sell for 8$ per square foot. Beth bought a 9-foot-long rectangular rug for $432. How wide was the rug?
lawyer [7]
If you know the rugs sell for 8$ per square foot and the total spend was $432. You divide 432 by 8 to find the total number of square foot of the rug. Which is 54. To find total square foot you find the area. So the area of a rectangle is L*W. So 54 = 9*width. So just divide 54 by 9 and you get the width of the rug. The width is 6 foot. Now you check. A nine by 6 rugs square foot is 54. and then times by 8 and you get 432 total. So you know the rug is 6 foot wide. :)
