Answer:

a) numerical discrete, b) categorical, c) numerical continuous, d) numerical continuous, e) categorical

Step-by-step explanation:

Categorical variables are those that represent attributes. For example, the colors of a model of car. It could be black, white, or red. It represents an attribute that can’ t be measured, only can be classified. Categorical variables can be classified into two types: nominal and ordinal. The categorical nominal variables don’ t follow a natural order, like the “b” statement. Babies could be boys or girls. When they have a hierarchy they are ordinal, for example, the “e” statement. They have an order. The firstborn is before than the middle child.

When the variable can be measured, it is a numerical variable. If the variable can be measured on a continuous scale, like “c” and “d” statement, then it is a continuous numerical variable. You can find any value on the scale. For example, the amount of fluid could be 250 ml, 250.1 ml, 249.5 ml.

If the variable can also take some finite variables, then it is a numerical discrete variable. These variables represent counts, as in the “a” statement, the number of students in a class.

Brenda throws a dart at this square-shaped target:
Klio2033 [76]

Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Area of the square</u>  = l*w = 11*11 = 121  

<u>Area of the circle</u>  = pi r^2 = pi*1^2 =  3.142

<u>Part A</u>

P(hitting the circle) = 3.142 / 121  =  0.026 which is closer to 0.

<u>Part B</u>

P(hitting the outside portion)  = 1 - 0.026 = 0.974 which is closer to 1.
