Bogdan [553]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a. Discrete

b. Continuous

c. Continuous

d. Discrete

e. Discrete

f. Continuous

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between discrete variable and continuous variable is that discrete variable can take a value in the form of whole numbers while continuous variable can take any form of value whole numbers or a fractions.

In other words when the values of variable can be counted then it is a discrete variable and when the values of variable can be measured then it is a continuous variable .

a.

Variable X consists of number of automobile accidents which can be counted. So, it is a discrete variable.

b.

Variable Y consists of length of time which can't  be counted but can be measured. So, it is a continuous variable.

c.

Variable M consists of amount of milk produced which can't  be counted but can be measured. So, it is a continuous variable.

d.

Variable N consists of number of eggs laid which can be counted. So, it is a discrete variable.

e.

Variable P consists of number of buildings permit issued which can be counted. So, it is a discrete variable.

f.

Variable Q consists of weight of grain which can't  be counted but can be measured. So, it is a continuous variable.

What is the value of c in the equation 2(x-3)+9=3(x+1)+x
lianna [129]

Answer:

x = 0  (I must assume you had a typo since c is not a variable in this equation!

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

2 (x - 3) + 9 = 3 (x + 1) + x

2 (x - 3) = 2 x - 6:

2 x - 6 + 9 = 3 (x + 1) + x

Grouping like terms, 2 x - 6 + 9 = 2 x + (-6 + 9):

2 x + (-6 + 9) = 3 (x + 1) + x

9 - 6 = 3:

2 x + 3 = 3 (x + 1) + x

3 (x + 1) = 3 x + 3:

2 x + 3 = 3 x + 3 + x

Grouping like terms, 3 x + x + 3 = (3 x + x) + 3:

2 x + 3 = (3 x + x) + 3

3 x + x = 4 x:

2 x + 3 = 4 x + 3

Subtract 4 x from both sides:

(2 x - 4 x) + 3 = (4 x - 4 x) + 3

2 x - 4 x = -2 x:

-2 x + 3 = (4 x - 4 x) + 3

4 x - 4 x = 0:

3 - 2 x = 3

Subtract 3 from both sides:

(3 - 3) - 2 x = 3 - 3

3 - 3 = 0:

-2 x = 3 - 3

3 - 3 = 0:

-2 x = 0

Divide both sides of -2 x = 0 by -2:

(-2 x)/(-2) = 0/(-2)

(-2)/(-2) = 1:

x = 0/(-2)

0/(-2) = 0:

Answer:  x = 0

Oliga [24]
<span>It is absolutely impossible to draw a triangle of sides 150 , 10 and 10 cm. With one side so large, it is impossible, which will make the two angles two small to intersect and the angle will be < 0, which is not possible in a triangle.
