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.

5.37 + x =12.89 explanation please it’s two step equation
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

7.52

Step-by-step explanation:

5.37 + x = 12.89

In order to solve this equation, we must isolate the variable, x.

1.) To do this, subtract 5.37 on both sides of the equation.

5.37 + x = 12.89

-5.37         -5.37

x = 7.52

Therefore, x = 7.52

my neighbor has two cats and both cats have yellow eyes. therefore when to cats live together, they will both have yellow eyes.
Whitepunk [10]
Inductive reasoning has to do with coming to a certain prediction or a conclusion based on multiple true premises.
Here, we know that these two cats live together and that they have yellow eyes. These two statements are true. So, naturally, we can conclude that any two cats which live together will have yellow eyes.
Now, whether or not this is correct, that is beside the point.

How do you find DE, Round to nearest 10th
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:  DE\approx6.0

Step-by-step explanation:

Observe in the figure given in the exercise that four right triangles are formed.

In this case you can use the following Trigonometric Identity to solve this exercise:

cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

From the figure you can identify that:

\alpha =53\°\\\\hypotenuse=10\\\\adjacent=BE=DE

Then, you can substitute values:

cos(53\°)=\frac{DE}{10}

The next step is to solve for DE in order to find its value. This is:

10*cos(53\°)=DE\\\\DE=6.01

Finally, rounding the result to the nearest tenth, you get that this is:

DE\approx6.0

Sixty seven percent of the employees in a company have managerial positions, and 58 percent of the employees in the company have
Kazeer [188]

Answer: The proportion of employees who either have MBAs or are managers are 0.58.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability of employees having managerial positions = 67%

Probability of employees having MBA degrees = 58%

Probability of managers having MBA degrees = 67%

So, using probability formulas, we get that

P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\\\\P(A\cup B)=0.67+0.58-0.67\\\\P(A\cup B)=0.58

Hence, the proportion of employees who either have MBAs or are managers are 0.58.

Find the distance and midpoint of a segment with the following endpoints: (5,-1) and (-9,-1)
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

d = 14

(-2,-1)

General Formulas and Concepts:

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Distance Formula: d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}
  • Midpoint Formula: (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

(5, -1)

(-9, -1)

<u>Step 2: Find distance </u><em><u>d</u></em>

  1. Substitute:                    d = \sqrt{(-9-5)^2+(-1-(-1))^2}
  2. Simplify:                        d = \sqrt{(-9-5)^2+(-1+1)^2}
  3. Subtract/Add:               d = \sqrt{(-14)^2+(0)^2}
  4. Evaluate:                       d = \sqrt{196}
  5. Evaluate:                       d = \14

<u>Step 3: Find Midpoint</u>

  1. Substitute:                    (\frac{5-9}{2},\frac{-1-1}{2})
  2. Subtract:                       (\frac{-4}{2},\frac{-2}{2})
  3. Divide:                          (-2,-1)
