Answer:

C. Ratio

True for this case we have a clear definition of the 0 since the 0 for the heigth and the weigth represent absence of mass. And the differences between numerical values for the two variables are meaingful.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to know which type of variable represent the weigth and the height. Let's analyze one by one the options given:

A. Ordinal

False since by definition an ordinal variable is "is a categorical variable for which the possible values are ordered". And for this case the height and the weigth are not categorical since represent quantitative data.

B. Nominal

False by definition and ordinal variable is which one that can't be represented by numeric values, and for this case the weight and the height are not example of this definition.

C. Ratio

True for this case we have a clear definition of the 0 since the 0 for the heigth and the weigth represent absence of mass. And the differences between numerical values for the two variables are meaingful.

D. Interval

False on this scale we don't have a clear definition of the 0. And for this case the heigth and the weight have a known definition of the 0 corresponding to the absence of mass. And since the ratios are meaingful for the heigth and the weigth then can't be an interval variable.

write and solve an equation to show thw average number of calendars her 3rd period class sold peer week during the four week cha
kari74 [83]
If they sold 89 calendars over 4 weeks, the 'equation' would look like (x = average calendars sold over 4 weeks):
x =  \frac{89}{4}

If you solve it, you get:
22 \frac{1}{4}

Which is equal to 22.25. Hope this helps!

Find the component form of the vector that translates P(4,5) to p'.
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Component form : (-7 , 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

P(4 , 5) = P'(4 +x , 5+y) = P'(-3 , 7)

4 + x = -3

    x = -3 - 4

    x = -7

5 + y = 7

     y = 7 - 5

     y = 2

Vector form : -7i + 2j

Component form : (-7 , 2)
