Suppose a researcher compiled a data set consisting of the following variables for a sample of 100 retired men. For each variable, select whether it is discrete or continuous. Variable Discrete Continuous The number of meals eaten out in the last week The number of pets currently living in the household Pant size Height in inches Pounds of chocolate consumed in the past year

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A discrete variable can be defined as a definite variable that we can get it's possible values just by counting. With this in mind.

1. The number of countries ever visited is a discrete variable

2. Shoe size is definite, it is a discrete variable.

3. Number of pets living in a household is a discrete variable.

A continuous variable is one that we can get the value through measurements.

1. Pounds of chocolate consumed in the past is continuous

2. Height in inches is continuous

Answers

Answer:

y=68

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

y = 68

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the expression y over -2 = -34 and are asked to solve or y.

To solve, we need to isolate for y :

y/-2 = -34

Multiply -2 from both sides :

[tex]\frac{y}{-2} *-2=-34*-2[/tex]

Help please--the way that I thought of solving this is not what the book says the answer is​

Answers

Answer:

The original cost was $90.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Judy bought a coat at the office of $72, which is 20% off the original price. what was the original cost of the coat?"

Your equation contains an error that will lead to an incorrect answer.

This is the correct way to write the equation.

We don't know the original price, so we let x = the original price.

The discount was 20% off the original price, so the discount is 20% of x.

20% of x is the same as 20% * x = 0.2x. The discount is 0.2x. We now subtract the discount from the original price.

x - 0.2x

She paid the discounted price of x - 0.2x. We are told that amount is $72, so we let our expression of the discounted price equal the discounted price we are told she paid.

x - 0.2x = 72

Now we solve for x, the original price.

x - 0.2x = 72

Combine like terms on the left side.

0.8x = 72

Divide both sides by 0.8

0.8x/0.8 = 72/0.8

x = 90

Answer: The original cost was $90.

P.S.

You must be careful when writing the equation. What you wrote was

x - 20%

on the left side. Notice that 20% is simply equal to 0.2; it is not 20% of the original price. By writing

x - 20% = 72

you are in fact writing

x - 0.2 = 72

meaning that the discount was $0.20

A discount of 20% on $90 is really $18, not $0.20.

There is a big difference there.

If you have any questions, just ask in the comments.

What are trigonometric ratios in terms of a right-angle triangle?

We know a right-angled triangle has three sides they are -: Hypotenuse,

Opposite and Adjacent.

We can remember SOH CAH TOA which is,

sin = opposite/hypotenuse, cos = adjecen/hypotenuse and

tan = opposite/adjacent.

Given, An observer (O) spots a bird flying at a 42° angle from a line drawn horizontally to its nest.

The hypotenuse distance which is from the observer's eye to the bird's nest is 17000ft and we need the horizontal distance or the distance of the adjacent.

∴ , cos = adjecen/hypotenuse.

cos42° = adjacent/17000.

adjacent = 17000×cos42°.

adjacent = 17000×0.743.

adjacent = 12631 feet.

What's the slope of a line that passes through (−12,15) and (0,4)?

Answers

Answer:

-11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

slope for points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(x,y)

(-12,15)

(0,4)

x1=-12

y1=15

x2=0

y2=4

slope=(4-15)/(0-(-12))=-11/(0+12)=-11/12

Answer:

Slope: -11/12x

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept equation:

y = mx + b

(m = slope)

The formula for slope is below.

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }[/tex]

With your two points, you can accurately determine your slope.

(-12, 15) (0,4)

x1 = -12

y1 = 15

x2 = 0

y2 = 4

Apply this information in the slope formula to get:

[tex]\frac{4 - 15}{0 - -12}[/tex]

Change the 0 - -12 to 0 + 12

[tex]\frac{4 - 15}{0 + 12}[/tex]

4 - 15 = -11

0 + 12 = 12

Place -11 and 12 into a fraction.

[tex]\frac{-11}{12}[/tex] OR -11/12

Add "x" to the end from "mx" within the slope-intercept equation

find the highest common factor using prime factorization for 27y and 54y³

Answers

Given:

27y and 54y³

​To find:

The highest common factor (HCF) using prime factorization.

Solution:

We have,

27y and 54y³

Using the prime factorization, we get

[tex]27y=3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot y[/tex]

[tex]54y^3=2\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot y\cdot y\cdot y[/tex]

Now, the common prime factors are 3, 3, 3 and y. So,

[tex]HCF=3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot y[/tex]

[tex]HCF=27y[/tex]

Therefore, the highest common factor of the given terms is 27y.
