When Jim surveyed 5 sixth-grade students at the community skating rink, he found that only 1 out of the 5 had completed the science project. He knows there are about 160 sixth-grade students in his community, so he infers that around 32 students have finished their science project. Is this a good inference? No, Jim did not make a good inference because his sample is too small and may be biased because he only asked students that were at the rink.
No, Jim did not make a good inference because his sample is too small and 32 is not in the same proportion to the population as 1 to 5.
Yes, Jim made a good inference because 32 is the same proportion to the population as 1 to 5.
Yes, Jim made a good inference because most students at the rink were sixth graders.

Abucket of paint has spilled on a tile floor. the paint flow can be expressed with the function p(t) = 6(t), where t represents time in minutes and p represents how far the paint is spreading. the flowing paint is creating a circular pattern on the tile. the area of the pattern can be expressed as a(p) = 3.14(p)^2 part a: find the area of the circle of spilled paint as a function of time, or a[p(t)]. show your work. part b: how large is the area of spilled paint after 8 minutes? you may use 3.14 to approximate pi in this problem.
