Some government leaders propose allowing oil companies to drill in currently protected lands that may be rich in oil reserves. Environmental researchers argue that drilling in such lands would be harmful to the surrounding ecosystem. To measure support for drilling in such lands, an oil company representative uses random-digit telephone dialing to contact adults in the region and measure opinion for increased drilling. One question in the survey asks, "Given that an increase in drilling could result in increased tax revenue and additional jobs to the region, would you support a proposal to allow drilling in lands currently protected from drilling?" What type of bias could be most likely affecting the survey results? This is undercoverage bias because some segments of the population will be excluded from the sample. This is response bias because those selected for the survey may not provide truthful opinions about oil drilling. This is voluntary res
The type of bias in this survey is question-wording bias because the question is influencing the response (option D).
Question-wording bias occurs when the words selected in the question influence a specific response. Here is one example:
Do you believe a cruel practice such as bullfighting should be forbidden?In this question, the use of the word cruel qualifies bullfighting as negative, and therefore in most cases, people will answer that bullfighting should be forbidden.
This effect occurs in the question for this survey because the section given that an increase in drilling could result in increased tax revenue and additional jobs to the region indirectly states drilling is positive and therefore influences the response of those surveyed.
Note: This question is incomplete because some of the options are missing; here are the complete options:
What type of bias could be most likely affecting the survey results?
A. This is undercoverage bias because some segments of the population will be excluded from the sample.
B. This is response bias because those selected for the survey may not provide truthful opinions about oil drilling.
C. This is voluntary response bias because those most passionate about drilling will be more likely to register an opinion.
D. This is question-wording bias because the information given at the start of the question may lead those surveyed towards a desired response.

9. YOU BE THE TEACHER Your friend
says 9 divided by 2.5 is about 3. Is your friend's
estimate reasonable? Explain.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes, it's reasonable.
What you are doing is solving the question by rounding. You come up with an answer. Suppose you loose the decimal somewhere and you get 0.36? Is that reasonable? Do you just write the answer in the provided blank and move on. What now?
You get it wrong?!!
But your estimate should be about 9/3 = 3. Now you look at your calculator with great misgivings, because it made a mistake. Did it or did you? Well ultimately you did, but you have to blame something. So the calculator takes the heat.
Who knows? Maybe the decimal doesn't work. It's stuck or something. In any event you should be aware that there's no way the answer could be 0.36 when you estimate it to be 3.

At TGI Fridankay's you order a drink for $2.99, an appetizer for $9.99, the cajun chicken pasta for $11.50, and a dessert for $7.99. You had amazing service and know that you are going to tip your waiter 20%! The waiter also gave you a 10% coupon to use. There is also a 7% sales tax on the bill. What is your total bill after the tip, discount, and tax?
The total bill after the tip, discount, and tax is $37.76.
The total cost of the order is reduced by the coupon and increased by the tax paid and tip.
Total cost of the items bought = cost of the drink + appetizer + Cajun + dessert
$2.99 + $9.99 + $11.50 + $7.99 = $32.47
Value of the tip = 20% x $32.47 = $6.49
Cost of the items after the coupon: (100% - 10%) x $32.47
90% x $32.47
0.9 x $32.47 = $29.22
Cost of the items after the tax: (1.07) x $29.22 = $31.27
Total cost of the items = $31.27 +$6.49 = $37.76

Janessa recently increased the size of his Jeep tires from the original P230/85R18 to the larger P250/85R21. If Janessa didn’t recalibrate her odometer, how far did she really travel on the new tires when her odometer shows she has traveled 23425 miles?
The distance Janessa traveled on the new tires with the given size is 26,470.25 miles.
The given parameters:
Original size of the tire, = P230/85R18The width of the smaller tire, = 230 mmAspect ratio, = 85%Larger size of the tire, = P250/85R21The width of the larger tire, = 250 mmAspect ratio, = 85%Reading of the odometer = 23,425 milesThe diameter of the smaller tire is calculated as follows;
[tex]0.85 = \frac{h}{230} \\\\h = 0.85 \times 230 \\\\h = 195.5 \ mm\\\\h = 195.5 \ mm \times \frac{1 \ in}{25.4 \ mm} \\\\h = 7.7 \ in[/tex]
diameter of the smaller tire;
D = 2(7.7 in) + 18 in
D = 33.4 in
The circumference of the smaller tire;
[tex]C_1 = \pi D\\\\C_1 = 3.142 \times 33.4 \\\\C_1 = 104.94 \ in[/tex]
The diameter of the larger tire is calculated as follows;
[tex]0.85 = \frac{h}{250} \\\\h = 0.85 \times 250 \\\\h = 212.5 \ mm\\\\h = 212.5 \ mm \times \frac{1 \ in}{25.4 \ mm} \\\\h = 8.37 \ in[/tex]
diameter of the larger tire;
D = 2(8.37 in) + 21 in
D = 37.74 in
The circumference of the larger tire;
[tex]C_2 = \pi D\\\\C_2 = 3.142 \times 37.74 \\\\C_2 = 118.58 \ in[/tex]
After one rotation, the larger tire will travel the following distance more than the smaller tire;
[tex]n = \frac{C_2}{C_1} = \frac{118.58}{104.94} = 1.13[/tex]

The graph shows the relationship between time
and the number of soda bottles a machine can
make. Use the points (2,48) and (7,168) to find
the number of soda bottles the machine can make
each minute.
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of soda bottles the machine can make each minute is the unit rate, slope. To find slope using those two points, use the formula:
[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Identify the points: (2,48) (7,168)
[tex]y_2=168[/tex]
[tex]y_1=48[/tex]
[tex]x_2=7[/tex]
[tex]x_1=2[/tex]
Plug these into the formula then solve:
[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{168-48}{7-2}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{120}{5}[/tex]
[tex]=24[/tex]
The slope is 24, and therefore the unit rate. Hence, the machine can make 24 soda bottles each minute.
Simple way
Where you see the point at 48 and 2, it means [tex]\frac{48}{2}[/tex]. So divide
48 ÷ 2 = 24.
Suraj took a slice of pizza from the freezer and put it in the oven. The pizza’s temperature (in degrees celsius) as a function of time (in minutes) is graphed. What was the pizza’s temperature after 2 minutes?
For this case, the first thing we should do is write the linear function that best suits the table.
In this case we have the following function:
y = 7.5x - 5
C = 7.5t-5
For C = 100 we have:
100 = 7.5t-5
We clear the time:
t = (100 + 5) / (7.5)
t = 14
Answer:
it did take the pizza to reach 100 degrees Celsius about 14 minutes

The ratio 4 1/5 to 5 2/5 is equivalent to the simplified fraction 7/9.
How to write the simplified factionTo write the ratio 4 1/5 to 5 2/5 as a simplified fraction, we need to convert both mixed numbers to improper fractions and then find their ratio.
Step 1: Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:
4 1/5 = (4 * 5 + 1) / 5 = 21 / 5
5 2/5 = (5 * 5 + 2) / 5 = 27 / 5
Step 2: Find the ratio by dividing the first fraction by the second fraction:
Ratio = (21 / 5) / (27 / 5)
Step 3: To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal:
Ratio = (21 / 5) * (5 / 27)
Step 4: Simplify the fraction:
Ratio = (21 * 5) / (5 * 27)
Ratio = 105 / 135
Step 5: Simplify the fraction further by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 15:
Ratio = (105 / 15) / (135 / 15)
Ratio = 7 / 9

A sixth grade class collects 176 items for recycling three out of every eight items are cans the rest are bottles how many bottles does the class collect
Answer:
110
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that 5/8 of 176 so the answer is 110.
110 bottles class collect.
What is Unitary Method?The unitary technique involves first determining the value of a single unit, followed by the value of the necessary number of units.
For example, Let's say Ram spends 36 Rs. for a dozen (12) bananas.
12 bananas will set you back 36 Rs. 1 banana costs 36 x 12 = 3 Rupees.
As a result, one banana costs three rupees. Let's say we need to calculate the price of 15 bananas.
This may be done as follows: 15 bananas cost 3 rupees each; 15 units cost 45 rupees.
Given:
A sixth grade class collects 176 items.
Now, three out of every eight items are cans
= (8- 3)
= 5
So, number of bottles class collect
= 176 x 5 / 8
= 22 x 5
= 110
Hence, 110 bottles class collect.
