Russell surveys led 15 students athis school and found out 5 of them planned to take orchestra as thiernext elective if Russell serves 10 more students how many of them are probably planing to take orchestra as thier elective based on past data
Based on the past data, 5 out of 15 students planned to take orchestra as their elective. If Russell surveys 10 more students and the same ratio holds, then we can estimate that approximately 3.33 (5/15 * 10) students out of the additional 10 surveyed will likely plan to take orchestra as their elective. Since fractions of students are not possible, we can round up to estimate that 4 students are probably planning to take orchestra as their elective.
Wrong
If 5 out of the initial 15 students surveyed planned to take orchestra as their elective, we can calculate the percentage of students intending to take orchestra based on this data.
Percentage of students planning to take orchestra = (Number of students planning to take orchestra / Total number of students surveyed) * 100
= (5 / 15) * 100
= 33.33%
If Russell surveys 10 more students, based on the past data, approximately 33.33% of the additional 10 students are likely to plan to take orchestra as their elective.
Number of students likely planning to take orchestra = (33.33/100) * 10
= 3.33
Since fractions of students are not possible, we can round down to estimate that 3 students are probably planning to take orchestra as their elective out of the additional 10 surveyed.
Therefore, a total of 5 + 3 = 8 students are probably planning to take orchestra as their elective based on past data.
