solong [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The dimensions of the rectangle:

length: 12cm

width: 15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is:

perimeter = 2(length+width)

54 = 2(a+b)

a = b - 3

a = legth

b = width

then:

54 = 2((b-3)+b)

54/2 = b-3 + b

27 = 2b - 3

27 + 3 = 2b

30 = 2b

b = 30/2

b = 15

a = b-3

a = 15 - 3

a = 12

Check:

54 = 2(15+12)

54 = 2*27

An airline records data on several variables for each of its flights, model of plane, amount of fuel used, time in flight,
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

The correct option is;

2 categorical, 3 quantitative (1 discrete, 2 continuous)

Step-by-step explanation:

A categorical variable which is otherwise known as a nominal variable is one which can be qualified as belonging to one class or category of objects or the other, depending on its attributes, and not based on order of the classes.

Therefore;

1) The model of the plane, and 2) whether the flight arrived on time, are categorical variable

A quantitative variable is a variable that indicates measurement and therefore, indicates the numerical magnitude of a measurement.

Therefore;

1) Amount of fuel used, 2) Time in flight, 3) The number of passengers are quantitative variables

Quantitative variables can be either discrete or continuous

A discrete quantitative variable is one that has a finite number of possible values or which may have an infinite but countable number of values

Therefore;

1) The number of passengers which is countable and exact is a discrete quantitative variable

A continuous variable is one whose exact or accurate value range is infinite or a variable with a limitless value set such as the range of values between two real numbers

Therefore;

1) Amount of fuel used and 2) Time of flight are continuous quantitative variables.
