Answer 7

In a sample of 50 museum visitors one afternoon, 22 were female and 28 were male. If there were 800 museum visitors that afternoon, estimate the number of visitors who were female.

Answer 8

To estimate the number of visitors who were female, we can use proportions. We know that 22 out of 50 visitors were female, which is 22/50 or 44% of the sample. We can assume that the same percentage of the total visitors were female. So to estimate the number of female visitors out of the total 800, we can set up a proportion:

44/100 = x/800

To solve for x, we can cross-multiply:

100x = 44 * 800
x = 35.2 * 8
x ≈ 282

So we can estimate that there were approximately 282 female visitors out of the total 800.
