A movie theater decreased the size of its popcorn bags by 20%. If the new bags hold 12 cups of popcorn, how much did the original bags hold? Nasser used the equation 0.20x = 12 Abraham used the equation 0.80x = 12 Kathleen used the equation 1.20x = 12 Decide who used the correct equation and defend your reasoning.

Abraham

Step-by-step explanation:

Abraham used the correct equation because if we represent the original size as 100% and decrease that by 20 it would be 80% or 0.8

Nasser's equation will solve for the change in price

Kathleen's equation solves for if the popcorn size was increased by 20%

introduction, methodology, results, discussion

step-by-step explanation:

an observational study is one which consists of actual observation to record data and then analyse the data.

there are a number of factors that should be analyzed before starting an observational study.

the main four factors are:

i) introduction:   this should be analysed to check whether the purpose of the study is correctly established and the data recorded are appropriate for the study

methodology:   the method of collecting the data, such as whether randomly selected, and whether sample size matches with the population to be studied, whether questions asked are easy to answer by common men, etc.

results: then results such as summary of data with comments should be studied thoroughly

discussion:   the last is the discussion, this can be either by management people or persons who are all interested , etc.
