Answer:
0.525
Step-by-step explanation:
\frac{x}{3.50}=\frac{15}{100}
The length of pencil A is 5 cm
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let the length of pencil A be "x"
Let the length of pencil B be "y"
Let the length of pencil C be "z"
<em><u>The total length of pencils A, B and C is 29 cm</u></em>
Therefore,
length of pencil A + length of pencil B + length of pencil C = 29
x + y + z = 29 ------------ eqn 1
<em><u>Pencil A is 11 cm shorter then pencil B</u></em>
x = y - 11 ------- eqn 2
<em><u>Pencil B is twice as long a pencil C</u></em>
y = 2z
------ eqn 3
<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 and eqn 3 in eqn 1</u></em>
<em><u>Substitute y = 16 in eqn 2</u></em>
x = 16 - 11
x = 5
Thus length of pencil A is 5 cm
Answer: B. Ordinal
Step-by-step explanation:
Given statement : A sports writer predicts the teams that will finish in the top three places in the eastern, central, and western divisions. It means he will predicts the teams that will finish in an order ( from first to third ) . It means the sports writer likely to use ordinal scale.
Hence, B is the right answer.
- An ordinal scale is a level of measurement scale which is used to arrange a data into an order.
