Focus: interpret circle graphs to solve problems.
Circle graphs allow information to be presented in a picture that can be easily interpreted
In a circle graph, each sector represents part of the whole.
The whole circle represents 100%
Every circle graph should have a title
Each sector should have a label and percentage
If the sector is small, it can be labelled off of the graph
A legend can be used in place of labels, but percentages should still be included
If we want to calculate how much of the whole a sector makes up, we multiply the total by the percent of the sector.
Eg. if 18% of a budget is spent on bills and the total spent is $2500, we take 18% of 2500 or 0.18 x 2500
b) Samson gets a raise of $500 per month. How will this affect his food budget?
a) Which type of program is watched for the greatest amount of time?
b) Which two types of programs are watched for approximately the same amount of time?
c) Estimate the fraction of time spent watching sitcoms.
d) Suppose TV is watched for 1000 days. Estimate how much time is spent watching sitcoms.

The Catholic Church got back the power to hold property and to the tithe (tax)
French Jesuits (priests) were allowed to return to Canada.

Quebec was expanded to the west to the Upper Mississippi and Ohio River. The province was now approximately three times larger than it was originally.
Government
Roman Catholics were now allowed to hold office and there was no elected assembly. Rather than the previous Royal Proclamation system, Quebec was now governed by a governor and legislative council.
Law
The traditional French system of private law was restored.
Religion
The tithe (a religious tax) was once again allowed to be collected. Also, the Jesuit priests who had, prior to the Act, had been deported were now allowed to return.
Land use system
The Seigneurial System was restored rather than the Township System.
