⌈1 1 ⎮ 40 ⌉
⌊2 1.50 ⎮ 70 ⌋
Factor x2 - 9

A school wants to know how students feel about the cafeteria food. They survey students who are currently eating lunch in the cafeteria.
1. Selection bias
2. The survey only includes students who choose to eat in the cafeteria. Students who bring lunch or avoid the cafeteria (possibly because they dislike the food) are not included, which can skew the results.
3. Survey a random sample of all students in the school, not just those in the cafeteria.

Two students tracked how many hours they studied over 5 days.
1. Find the mean for each student.
2. Without fully calculating, determine which student has the greater standard deviation.
1. Student A mean = (2 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 10) ÷ 5 = 6
Student B mean = (6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6) ÷ 5 = 6
2. Student A has the greater standard deviation.
Solve by substitution:
y = 2x + 3
4x + y = 19
