help please c:

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

I think that it is A, but I'm not sure.

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

good, A is correct!

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

this type of sample is a voluntary response sample

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Thanks! Can you help with some more, please?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

sure

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Thank you! c:

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

I also have some questions that I've already answered, but I just want to know if I'm right.

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

The picture I just post (#6), I do not understand what they want me to do.

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

hm well

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

they want you to estimate the average of each graph

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Ok.

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

so for average we would simply add all the dots together and divide by how many dots there are?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

yeah

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Ok.

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

So for online customers, I added all the dots together and got 100.

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

since each dot represented 10 customers.

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

good, but how many total packs did the customers buy?

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

um. What do you mean by that?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

well, the graph tells you how many customers bought how many packs, right?

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

yes

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

so, looking at the first graph

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

it has one dot for 4

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

yes

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

so, that means 10 customers bought 4 packs. how many packs total?

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

40 packs?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

great!

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

now we repeat the same process for the other columns

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Oh! so we do that way. OK i will try it now

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

540 packs in total for the first graph?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

hm

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

and if we divide that by 10 dots, we would get 54 right?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

yes

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

but remember each dot = 10 customers

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

so total number of packs/total number of customers = 540/100 = 5.4 that's our average

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

with me so far?

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Oh! Ok. yes i understand so far

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

good, now we do the same thing for the lower graph

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

So I would repeat this process with the other graph

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

yup

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

let me know what you get

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

2.8?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

wow that was fast

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

yeah c:

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

that sounds right

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

ok.

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

so we can round 5.4 down to 5 and 2.8 up to 3

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

so the average for online customers = 5 average for walk ins = 3

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

So the online cutomer would have an average of buying 5 packs and walk-in customers would have an average of buying 3 packs?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

good

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Thanks!

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

so answer choice A

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

no problem!

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Check please?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

good! that's right

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

I have about 5 more questions. About 3 to be checked and 2 that I'm confused on.

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

sure

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

I hope I'm not wasting your time ><

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

oh of course you're not wasting my time, that's why i'm here ^^

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

^^ thanks. I just feel bad that's all :(

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

#8 is correct, good job

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Thanks! ^-^

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

the next question is the last question that needs to be checked, and number 11 and 12 are the last two that I don't understand *cry*

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

hm not quite

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Hm. OK. I'll look over it again really quick c:

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

the math vs. science class isn't the reason why the sample is in valid

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

when we pick a sample, we want it to be as random as possible

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

yes

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

picking all students from one class isn't a good idea

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Oh. Oops i didn't read the choice carefully.

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

it would be better to just pick randomly from a whole list of students

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

no worries

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

so it's C

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Ok. I was about to say that. I just saw that answer. I'm so sorry for my silly mistake.

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Thanks for catching that :)

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

no problem

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

well, first we want to add up all the fish in the table

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Yes.

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

I got 200

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

then we find the fraction of grass carp

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Then, I did 61/200 and got 0.305

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

good! then just multiply that by 800

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

yes

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

So it is right?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

yes, 0.305 is right

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

thanks

OpenStudy (bangtankawaii):

Last two questions, please

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

now we multiply by (0.305 * 800) = ?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

oh hold on
