The sample % of these two populations would be 100/size (of student body at each school) x 100 so this would compare the two student bodies preferences for the particular type of candy bar. However, the actual % of the whole student body at each school would be a factor also. If the high school only had 200 students then this would be 50% representative but if the middle school had say 500 students this would only be 20% representative so this would have to be taken into account too. It might be more representative to have the same % of the student bodies respectively for the sample.
A = bh
b = 16
h = 3
A = 16*3
A = 48 square centimenters
Answer:
the third side is 40 m long
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of the triangle is the sum of its three sides, and they give you what that value in meters is (120 m)
Your are given the length of two of them: 30 m and 50 m, and need to find the third one (let's call it "x" for this unknown side)
Now set the following equation:
Perimeter = side 1 + side 2 + side 3 --> replace these with the info you know
120 m = 30 m + 50 m + x --> add 30 m and 50 m obtaining 80 m
120 m = 80 m + x --> now solve for x (isolate the x on one side) by subtracting 80 m from both sides
120 m - 80 m = x --> perform the subtraction 120 m - 80 m = 40 m
40 m = x
Which tells us that the third unknown side has a length of 40 m
Teresa counted 2 leaves on May 1st and 9 leaves on September 1st.
The difference in the number of leaves is:
9 - 2 = 7
Hence, the number of leaves has increased by 7 units.
