Apopulation of middle school students contains 160 sixth graders, 180 seventh graders, and 140 eighth graders. nine seventh graders were part of a random sample of the population chosen to participate in a survey. for the sample to accurately represent the population, about how many sixth graders should be chosen?

7

8

14

16

Second option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of sixth graders students = 160

Number of seventh graders students = 180

Number of eighth graders students = 140

If 9 seventh graders were part of a random sample of the population chosen to participate in a survey.

Let Number of sixth graders should be chosen be 'x'.

Since there will be direct proportion .

Hence, Second option is correct.

trapezoid

step-by-step explanation:

first i plotted all my points on a grid graph

i made sure all of them were in the correct quadrant

then i saw it was a trapezoid or a quadrilateral

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
