NOT a Representative Sample Drivers who reside in Middlefield
Population Residents of Middlefield
Representative Sample Residents randomly chosen from the
town register
Step-by-step explanation:
Population includes all the residents of Middlefield.
Representative Sample is a population subset that accurately reflects the characteristics of the population. For example, the subset of residents who are randomly chosen from the town register is an unbiased and representative sample.
NOT a Representative Sample: For example, drivers who reside in Middlefield do not represent the characteristics of the population of Middlefield.
Answer:
He'll need 288 cups to make a waffle on his 24 foot diameter circular griddle.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find out how much batter Danny needs we first need to compute the area of the first pans, since it is a circular pan their area is given by A = 2*pi*r. So we have:
Area of the first pan = 2*pi*(6/2) = 18.84 square inches
Area of the second pan = 2*pi*(24/2) = 75.36 square foots
We now need to convert these values to be in the same unit, we'll convert from square foots to square inches:
Area of the second pan = 75.36 * (12)^2 = 10851.84 square inches
We can now use a proportion knowing that the batter and the thickness of the waffles are the same. If 0.5 cup of flour can make a waffle on 18.84 square inches then x cup of flour can make a waffle on 10851.85 square inches. Writing this in a mathematical form, we have:
0.5/x = 18.84/10851.84
18.84x = 0.5*10851.85
x = 10851.85*0.5/18.84 =288 cups
If a point has the same x-coordinate as the origin, that means the point could be anywhere on the y-axis. This means it could be below the x-axis or above, but never on the x-axis. This means if you drew it on a coordinate plane, the point would always be traveling vertically on the y-axis.
