Let
x---------> my favorite number
we know that
(x+9)/15=3/5------> 5*(x+9)=15*3-----> divide by 5 both sides----> (x+9)=3*3
x+9=9------> x=0
therefore
the answer is
My favorite number is 0
The answer is x=1.76 or 2
Last year He was 7 years old.
His father is 4 times the age 7 x 4 = 28
Last year his dad was 28, so this year he is 29.
Combined age this year = 29 + 8 = 37
51 - 37 = 14 years
14/ 2 people = 7 years
8 + 7 = 15
29 + 7 = 36
15 + 36 = 51
It will take 7 years.
Answer and explanation:
Discrete random variables can be counted as integers and you can't divide them. Continuous random variables are counted as real numbers and are magnitudes that can´t be counted as an exact number (there will always be an uncertainty in the measurement).
a. The random variable is continuous. Distance is a measurement.
b. The random variable is discrete. You can count how many people are sitting at a computer.
c. The random variable is continuous. Weight is a measurement.
