No because the box has a fixed weight as the several books weighing said pounds would most likely to be use as the x in this equation.

John's age is 4 more than 3 time Mike's age. If their sum is 20, how old are Mike and John?
natima [27]
Let me help you with this :)

John = x 
Mike = y

x = 4 + 3y (4 more than 3 times)

x + y = 20 (we put the x above into this equation)

4 + 3y + y = 20 
4y = 16 (we transfers the 4 on the left side to the right side and subtract it from the 20)
y = 4 (the answer is 4)

we use this for the equation:

x = 4 +3*4
x = 16

John is 16 years old and Mike is 4 years old :)

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

r²h(pie)+r³ over 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Call the radius r and the height of the cone h.  The formula for the volume of a cone is r^2*h*pi/3, and the formula for the volume of a sphere is 4r^3/3, so half of a sphere has volume 2r^3/3.  Adding these, our answer is: ^^

What does a discrete quantitative variable mean?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

A discrete quantitative variable is one that can only take specific numeric values (rather than any value in an interval)

Step-by-step explanation:

A discrete quantitative variable is one that can only take specific numeric values (rather than any value in an interval), but those numeric values have a clear quantitative interpretation. Examples of discrete quantitative variables are number of needle punctures, number of pregnancies and number of hospitalizations.
