Identify the variable that is continuous data used discretely. Select all that apply. There are 3 bugs. The bugs are red, yellow
Nata [24]

Answer:

The age of each bug

Step-by-step explanation:

Discrete variables are variables which are counted and can only take on whole number values such as 1, 2, 3...,. For example, the number of students in a class; the number of legs of a spider.

Continuous variables are variables that are measured and can take on a whole range of values such as 1.0, 1.1, 1.2...,. For example, the wingspan of a bug, the length of leaves; the exact age of students in a class.

Though age is a continuous variable if the exact age is required as it can take up a wide range of values such as 2.5 years; 2.3 years, 5.8 days etc,. However, in some instances, it can be rounded up to whole number values in years, months, weeks or even days.

For example, the age of a bug in days could be 1 day, 2 days, or 14 days.

The age of a student who is 12.2 years can be given as 12 years.

If the total volume of the ice cream exceeds the internal volume of the cone, then it will overflow.

Volume of icecream = 4/3 * pi * r^3 = 4/3*pi*(1)^3 = 4.189 cu. in.Volume of cone = 1/3 * pi * r^2 * h = 1/3*pi*(1)^2*5 = 5.236 cu. in.

Since Volume of cone > Volume of icecream, the cone will not overflow.
