To answer your questions regarding Anna's poll, we need data from the line plot showing the number of pets her classmates have. However, since I can't see the plot and you haven't provided the specific data points, I can guide you on how to analyze a line plot typically.
1. **How many classmates responded to her poll?**
To determine the total number of classmates who responded, count the total number of Xs (or marks) on the line plot. Each mark represents one classmate.
2. **How many total pets do the classmates have?**
To find the total number of pets, multiply the number of classmates for each category of pets by the number of pets in that category, and then sum these numbers:
\[
\text{Total Pets} = \sum (\text{Number of Pets} \times \text{Number of Classmates in that category})
\]
3. **Determine the mean number of pets in the class.**
To find the mean:
- Use the total number of pets calculated in step 2.
- Divide it by the total number of classmates calculated in step 1:
\[
\text{Mean Number of Pets} = \frac{\text{Total Pets}}{\text{Total Classmates}}
\]
4. **Round to the nearest tenth place.**
If the resulting mean is, for example, 3.67, it would be rounded to 3.7.
If you provide the specific counts from the line plot, I can give you a direct answer for each of these questions.
