The number of interceptions made by a defensive back is definitely countable because it is finite and also it is not continuous because each interception is different and is unique. That is to say, one interruption happens and then then next. They do not happen in a continuous manner.

Thus, the number of interceptions made by a defensive back are countable and are discrete. Having a look at the options we can see that Option C matches as it says "the variable is discrete because it is countable".

Thus Option C is the answer.

Estimate the Value Of Each Expression to the nearest integer .
omeli [17]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

14. We can represent 1 as √1 and 2 as √4 and because 1 < 3 < 4, we know that √3 is in between 1 and 2. However, 3 is closer to 4 than it is to 1 so √3 is about 2.

15. Again, 3 is √9 and 4 is √16. 9 < 10 < 16 so √10 is in between 3 and 4, however, since 10 is closer to 9 as it is to 16, we know that √10 is about 3.

16. -4 = -√16 and -5 = -√25, since 16 < 22 < 25, we know that -√22 is in between -4 and -5 but 22 is closer to 25 so the answer is -5.

17. -10 = -√100 and -11 = -√121 so -√120 is in between -10 and -11. Since 120 is closer to 121, the answer is -11.

Please HELP!!!!!!!!!
DaniilM [7]

1.

Calculate the sum

5x - 10 + 7 = 65 - 20x + 32

Move terms

5x - 3 = 97 - 20x

Collect the like terms and calculate

5x + 20x = 97 +3

Divide both sides by 25

25x = 100

X= 4 ANSWER

I skipped some steps because it would be too long :/

2.

Multiply parenthesis by 8

20x>8(4x - 5) -20

Calculate

20x>32x - 40 - 20

Move variable to the left

20x>32x-60

Collect like terms

20x - 32x > -60

Divide both sides by -12

-12x>-60

As part of a board game, players choose 5 unique symbols from 9 different symbols to create their secret password. How many diff
frozen [14]

Answer:

15,120

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first symbol, there are 9 options to choose from. Then 8, then 7, and so on. Since each player chooses 5 symbols, they will have a total of 9\cdot 8 \cdot 7 \cdot 6\cdot 5=\boxed{15,120} permutations possible. Since the order of which they choose them matters (as a different order would be a completely different password), it's unnecessary to divide by the number of ways you can rearrange 5 distinct symbols. Therefore, the desired answer is 15,120.
