Answer:

A) Discrete

Step-by-step explanation:

Continuous and Discrete Random Variable:

A discrete random variable is countable and doesn't include fractions whereas a continuous random variable can have values in a fraction. There can be an infinite number of values between two continuous values. The difference between them can be best understood using examples.

Example Discrete Variables:

Number of peoples in a shift - you cant have 2.5 or 1.2 people it can either be 3, 2 or 1

Number of people who quit smoking - 3, 10, 20 you cant have people in fractions

Example Continuous Variables:

Height of people in a survey - 5.6 feet or 6.2

Amount of milk consumed in a survey - 1.3 liters, 3 liters

Weight of people in a survey - 60 kg, 40.6 kg

Maggie's class bought three books at the book fair the book cost $15, $9 and $12. use parenthesis to write two different express
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
To determine the total class the whole class spent, you just have to simply add the individual costs of the three books. Using parenthesis, the solution can be written in the following two ways:

($15 + $9) + $12 = $36
$15 + ($9 + $12) = $36

No matter where you put the parenthesis, the final answer doesn't change. This is because of the Commutative Property of Addition. The order does not matter.
