The sum of 2 negative numbers is a negative number farther to the left of the first addend. The sum of a positive and a negative number will be positive if the positive number has a greater absolute value. The sum of a positive and a negative number will be negative if the negative number has a greater absolute value.

Lesson 6.1 Sampling and Drawing Inferences When a population has a large number of data points, a sample can be taken to help summarize information and make inferences about the entire population. A random sample has individuals who are chosen by chance, and each member of the population has an equal chance of being included. In a biased sample, some members of the population are less likely to be chosen. Samples that are random are better predictors of trends for the bigger population.

Sampling and Drawing Inferences
When a population has a large number of data points, a sample can be taken to help summarize information and make inferences about the entire population. A random sample has individuals who are chosen by chance, and each member of the population has an equal chance of being included. In a biased sample, some members of the population are less likely to be chosen. Samples that are random are better predictors of trends for the bigger population. Rosewood Middle School has 714 students. Susan surveys a random sample of 34 students and finds that 9 of them play a sport outside of school. How many students at the school are likely to play a sport outside of school? 9 s ; 34s (9) (714) 6426 34 714 34s 6426; s 189 34 34

Grace hears that the average gas price has risen to $2.89 during the gas shortage. She checks gas prices at stations near her school, and finds that the average is $3.20. Why are the averages different?
The averages are different because Grace’s sample was biased. She did not randomly select the gas stations in the city. She only took data from the gas stations that were in her area. Spectrum Critical Thinking for Math Grade 7

The population is the 180 students who were invited. This is not a random sample. She only chose people who lived in her neighborhood. This could be biased because these students may be more likely to come to the party because they live closer to her brother. These results are likely too high.
The double box and whisker plot shows that the high school students are overall less active with a median of 59 minutes a day. The middle 50% of students sampled are active between 54 and 63 minutes a day. The elementary students are more active. The median is 64 minutes a day. The middle 50% exercise between 56 and 72 minutes. This double box-and-whisker plot displays the test scores of students who studied alone and the scores of students who studied with a study group. Use it to compare the data sets.
