mafiozo [28]

The correct answer is B. No, the wording of the question makes respondents more likely to say water, even if they may actually prefer soda at a meal.

Explanation:

One important factor when designing questions in research is to avoid any language that might influence the answers of respondents. This recommendation was not followed in the question "Eating too many sugary foods leads to cavities. Would you rather have soda or water served with your meal?" because mentioning sugary foods, which includes soda, leads to cavities will make respondents consider soda is negative and they are more likely to choose water. This implies the wording in the question influences respondents and introduces bias, which is inappropriate. Thus, the correct answer is B.

1. In Suri's coin purse she has 6 dimes and
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The ratios are not equal

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of dimes

y ----> the number of quarters

we know that

<em> Suri's coin purse</em>

x=6, y=4

The ratio of dimes  to quarters is

\frac{x}{y} =\frac{6}{4}

<em> Martha's coin purse</em>

x=5, y=3

The ratio of dimes  to quarters is

\frac{x}{y} =\frac{5}{3}

Compare the ratios

\frac{6}{4}=\frac{5}{3}\\6(3)=4(5)\\18\neq 20

therefore

The ratios are not equal

paloma eats 2/8 of an apple in the morning and 3/8 more in the afternoon. how much of an apple did she eat in total
marishachu [46]

Step-by-step explanation:

in this problem, we are solving for the amount of apple that Paloma eats

1. she ate 2/8 of a complete apple -hence the will be a remainder, we will find  

  that remainder

2. she also ate 3/8 of the remainder for lunch

3. we then proceed to calculate all apple she ate in total

1. \frac{2}{8} *1= \frac{1}{4} \\\\1-\frac{1}{4}= \frac{4-1}{4}  = \frac{3}{4}

2 she ate 3/8 of the remaining 3/4 apple

1. \frac{3}{8} *\frac{3}{4} = \frac{9}{32}

3. in  total she ate 1/4+ 9/32

\frac{1}{4} +\frac{9}{32} = \frac{8+9}{32} = \frac{17}{32}

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

36 meters²

Step-by-step explanation:

Hassan built a fence around a square yard. It took 48 meters^2 of lumber to build the fence. The fence is 1.5 meters tall.

Let say square yard = x * x meters²

Perimeter of Square yard = 4x meters

Height of fence =1.5 meters

Area of fence = 4x * 1.5 =6x meters²

6x = 48

Divide both sides by 6

x = 8

Area of square yard = 6 × 6= 36 meters²

36 meters² is the area of the yard inside the fence
