(PLEASE HELP) A teacher surveyed a sample of students from Lake Middle School. He asked the students where they'd like to go for

a field trip. He recorded these results:
• 80 chose the aquarium.

• 60 chose the science center.

• 30 chose the planetarium.

• 40 chose the farm.

The teacher wants to figure out the relative frequency of a student choosing the aquarium. He'll then estimate how many students out of all 1000 at the school are likely to choose the aquarium.

(he surveyed 210 students and about 38% of them chose the aquarium)

Write and solve a proportion that the teacher can use to estimate how many students in the whole school would choose the aquarium.

Answer:

relative frequency of choosing aquarium is 80/210

about 400 students out of 2000 will choose aquarium

Step-by-step explanation:

relative frequency of choosing aquarium is 80/210

<u>proportion</u>:

a = students who choose aquarium

80/210 = a/1000

210a = 80000

a = 80000/210 which is close to 80000/200 which equals 800/2 or about 400 students

The vertex of the parabola below is at the point (1.-3). Which of the equations below could be the one for this parabola?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer: Choice D. y = (x-1)^2 - 3

The vertex is (h,k) = (1,-3). So h = 1 and k = -3.

We have a = 1 as the leading coefficient.

Plug those values into the equation below

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

y = 1(x - 1)^2 + (-3)

y = (x - 1)^2 - 3

How do you think inequalities are different from equations you have worked with before?
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Inequalities are different from equations.  If you multiply or divide both sides of an equation by the same negative number, the equation remains the same, but If you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by the same negative number, the inequality reverses.
