Answer: 405 students

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, Banneker Middle School has 750 students and we are told that Lynn surveys a random sample of 50 students and finds that 27 have pet dogs. The number of students at the school that are likely to have pet dogs goes thus:

Since out of 50 students surveyed, 27 have pet dogs, this means we multiply the fraction by 750. This can be mathematically written as:

= 27/50 × 750

= 27 × 15

= 405

This means 405 students are expecting to have pet dogs.

Is finding the mean weight of heart-disease patients in a study an example of data gathering?
Leviafan [203]

I would think so since you have to weigh each person and then add all the weights together and then divide this number by the total number of people weighed.

Would probably mostly hinge on the actual weighing part I think for the data gathering.

AC = 16, AB = x + 1, and BC = x + 7. What is the measure of the length of AB? HELP
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

AC=AB+BC

so 16=x+1+x+7

which simplifies to 16=2x+8

subtract eight from both sides to get 8=2x

then divide by 2 to get that x=4

AB=x+1, which substitutes into 4+1=5

Although five of John's answers were incorrect, 90% of his answers were correct. How many questions did John answer in all?
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

John answered 50 questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Although five of John's answers were incorrect, 90% of his answers were correct.

This means that 5 is 100 - 90% = 10% of the total number of questions, n. So

0.1n = 5

n = \frac{5}{0.1}

n = 50

John answered 50 questions.
