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:
It is linear since it is a straight line.
Answer:
I believe it is associative property of addition or commutative
Step-by-step explanation:
The expressions for the payment made to Mary are,
(Monday) 90 = 15m + b
(Tuesday) 62 = 8m + b
where m and b are the fee per student and the base fee, respectively. Solving for m and b, the values are 4 and 30.
The equation that represents Mary's earning is
y = 4x + 30
For 20 students,
y = 4(20) + 30 = 110
For Lisa's earnings,
y = 8x + 15
Substituting 20,
y =8(20) + 15 = 175
Thus, Lisa would earn more than Mary by $65.
