Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

answer for part A-
2nd row- if 40 degrees=8 students, then 120 ;(40 *3) degrees = 8 * 3 =24 students :)
4th row- if previously 40 degrees=8 students, 1 student = 40/ 8= 5 degrees
therefore 15 students = 5 * 15 =75 degrees
3rd row is 360-(40+120+75) degrees = angle of orienteering because angles at a point add up to 360 degrees
3rd row angle = 125 degrees
with previous 1 student = 5 degrees, x students = 125 degrees
x= 125/5 = 25 students

for part B:
measure and mark the 125 degrees taken for orienteering

:D hope this helped! (dunno C part sorryy)

Answer:

Original Activity:  Orienteering
New Activity:    Kayaking                

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first find out the current modal group

We see that there are 8 students who go for swimming and comprise 40° of the pie circle.

Since there are 360° in a circle, 40° = 40/360 = 1/9 of the total number of students

If the total number of students is represented by X then this means

(1/9) X = 8

Multiplying both sides by 9 gets rid of the denominator on the left side and provides a value for X, the total number of students

(1/9)X × 9 = 8 × 9

giving

X = 72 total students

The sector angle for Kayaking is 120° which is 3 times the number of students taking swimming.
So number of students taking kayaking is 3 x 8 = 24

So total number of students taking swimming, kayaking and wall climbing = 8 + 24 + 15 = 47

The remaining students must be taking orienteering. Therefore number of students taking orienteering = 72 - 47 = 25

This represents an angle of 25 / 72 * 360 = 125°
(In order to avoid intermediate decimal results first multiply 25 x 360 -> 9000. Then divide by 72 giving 9000/72 = 125°)

We can see that orienteering is the modal activity

In descending order of number of students taking each activity:
Orienteering     25
Kayaking           24
Wall Climbing    15
Swimming           8
----------------------------
Total                  72

----------------------------

If only one student changes activity to create a new nodal activity it is obvious that the student has to switch from Orienteering to Kayaking which are the two highest values

There will be now be one student less in Orienteering dropping from 25 to 24

and

One student more in Kayaking increases from 24 to 25

The new values will be

Activity               No students(N)         Angle of sector(N/72 * 360)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Swimming             8                               40°    (8 * 360 / 72)
Kayaking              25                            125°    (25 * 360 /72)
Orienteering        24                            120°    (24  * 360/72)
Wall Climbing       15                              75°    (15 x 360/72)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Totals                    72                            360°
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
