A biased sample is ond where all individuals were not given equal likelihood of being selected.

Picking students from the cafeteria would lead to sampling bias because not every student from the school eats from the cafeteria. Those she selected can not be used to account for the whole school. Those that use the cafeteria are only a representation of the whole school and not the entire school.

Answer: Height at which the wire is attached to the pole is 12 feet.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of the wire = 20 feet

Let the height at which wire is attached to the pole be h

and distance along the ground from the bottom of the pole to the end of the wire be x+4

Now, it forms a right angle triangle so, we can apply "Pythagorus theorem".

$H^2=B^2+P^2\\\\20^2=x^2+(x+4)^2\\\\400=x^2+x^2+8x+16\\\\400=2x^2+8x+16\\\\400=2(x^2+4x+8)\\\\200=x^2+4x+8\\\\x^2+4x-192=0\\\\x^2+16x-12x-192=0\\\\x(x+16)-12(x+16)=0\\\\(x+16)(x-12)=0\\\\x=-16\ and\ 12$
