Remember that the difference between census and a sample survey is that in a census you take all the people of population in consideration in the study, and in the sample survey you take a part of that population in consideration to survey.
SO here if you check the problem it says that "in a recent poll, Pew reserchers found that 47% OF AMERICAN ADULT RESPONDENTS"
that is the population of the study that you want to focus, but there are a billion of american adult in US right? so its impossible that this company Pow Research made a census if you consider that a billion of people in US is almost infinite number for a company with a finite number of employees.
Also remember that a company has a budget to consider every month or every year, so to make a census or a sample survey it takes time and money, just to survey 10 people in a streeth of US cost money so if you want to reduce cost you might need to do a sample survey instead of a census.
Answer:
The GCF is going to be 20
Step-by-step explanation:
This Is how I find the GCF of 2 numbers. I find the prime factorization first, then I find the common factors and multiply them. Here
The prime factorization of 20, 2 × 2 × 5= 20
The prime factorization of 80, 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 5 = 80
The common factors are 2, 2, and 5. We multiply those to get the GCF.
2 × 2 × 5 = 20
There's two ways to do this.
The first way:
Work out the amount of sugar needed to make one cake, and then multiply that by 7.
30 grams ÷ 4 cakes = 7.5 grams for 1 cake.
7.5 grams × 7 cakes = 52.5 grams for 7 cakes.
The second way:
Work out the ratio of sugar:cake by doing 7 ÷ 4, and then multiplying that value by 30.
7 cakes ÷ 4 cakes = 1.75
1.75 × 30 grams = 52.5 grams for 7 cakes.
Either way, the answer is 52.5 grams.
Answer: Angle x equals 19 degrees
Step-by-step explanation: We have two polygons, one with five sides and the other with eight sides. The question states that the pentagon has exactly one line of symmetry which means the line that runs down from point D to line AB divides the shape into exactly two equal sides. Hence angle A measures the same size as angle B (in the pentagon).
First step is to calculate the angles in the pentagon. The sum of angles in a polygon is given as
(n - 2) x 180 {where n is the number of sides}
= 3 x 180
= 540
This means the total angles in the pentagon can be expressed as
A + B + 84 + 112 + 112 = 540
A + B + 308 = 540
Subtract 308 from both sides of the equation
A + B = 232
Since we have earlier determined that angle A measures the same size as angle B, we simply divide 232 into two equal sides, so 232/2 = 116
Having determined angle A as 116 degrees, we can now compute the value of angle A in the octagon ABFGHIJK. Since the figure is a regular octagon, that means all the angles are of equal measurement. So, the sum of interior angles is given as
(n - 2) x 180 {where n is the number of sides}
= 6 x 180
= 1080
If the total sum of the interior angles equals 1080, then each angle becomes
1080/8
= 135 degrees.
That means angle A in the octagon measures 135, while in the pentagon it measures 116. The size of angle x is simply the difference between both values which is
x = 135 - 116
x = 19 degrees
The answer is y=(1/20)x^2
