Answer:
categorical ordinal
Step-by-step explanation:
The variable is categorical because not important, somewhat important and very important are three different categories and these categories are assigned numerical value 1,2 and 3 still numerical value assigning cannot lead to quantitative variable because 1 still means category not important. The scale of measurement in the variable is ordinal because it has meaningful order from category 1 not important to category 3 very important.
24 units or you can put 7x4 units
In this equation y would equal 4 or it could be 1
Answer:
y'(t) = k(700,000-y(t)) k>0 is the constant of proportionality
y(0) =0
Step-by-step explanation:
(a.) Formulate a differential equation and initial condition for y(t) = the number of people who have heard the news t days after it has happened.
If we suppose that news spreads through a city of fixed size of 700,000 people at a time rate proportional to the number of people who have not heard the news that means
<em>dy/dt = k(700,000-y(t)) </em>where k is some constant of proportionality.
Since no one has heard the news at first, we have
<em>y(0) = 0 (initial condition)
</em>
We can then state the initial value problem as
y'(t) = k(700,000-y(t))
y(0) =0
