Answer: E: The number of books a person finished reading last month

Step-by-step explanation:

First, a discrete variable is a variable that only can take some given values in a set, the discrete variables are usually not dense, and a continuous variable is a variable that can take any value in a range (where the accepted values are dense).

So, for example, the set of the natural numbers is discrete, and the set of the real numbers can represent a continuous variable.

Here the only option that is really discrete will be the number of books that a person finished reading last month because here only positive whole numbers are accepted (you can not finish a 0.454 of a book)

The other options are continuous because all are classical measures.

For example, the weight of a person can jump between:

75.6kg and 75.7kg.

So you could think that this is discrete because the values between 75.6kg and 75.7g are not shown with our measuring device, but those will be added in the error of the measure because the weights between 75.6kg and 75.7kg are actually possible, so they must be accepted.

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of purchase and installation = 5323.50

Cost per window = 230.25

Cost of installation = 2100

Hence,

Total purchase cost of windows alone :

5323.50 - 2100 = 3,223.50

Therefore, the number of windows purchased is :

(Total purchase cost of windows alone / price per window)

(3,223.50 / 230.25)

= 14

Hence, 14 windows was purchased

60 total fourth graders and 43 are girls. To find the number of boys, subtract.

60 - 43 = 17 boys

If 5 girls were absent, subtract.

43 - 5 = 38 girls present

If 4 boys were absent, subtract.

17 - 4 = 13 boys present

Therefore, there were 13 boys present.

Best of Luck!
