37. The students at Norton School were asked to name their favorite type of pet. Of the 430 students surveyed, 258 said that their favorite type of per
was a dog. Suppose that only 100 students were surveyed, with similar results, about how many students would say that a dog is their favorite
type of pet?

60 students

Step-by-step explanation:

So, in the first situation 430 students were surveyed and 258 said that their favourite pet was a dog. The second situation is 100 students and x said that their favourite pet was a dog. We are solving x.

430=258

100= x

Cross multiply

So that is

430 x X= 100x258

430x=25800

Divide both sides by 430

60 students

it has the same slope and a different y-intercept

hope this : )
