Are these ratios equivalent?

<h3>Answer:  Yes</h3>

========================================================

Explanation

The ratio 8:10 simplifies to 4:5 when you divide both parts by 2.

The ratio 16:20 simplifies to 4:5 when you divide both parts by 4

Therefore the two ratios 8:10 and 16:20 are both equal 4:5, so they are equal to one another.

------------

Put another way,

(8 large)/(10 small) = (16 large)/(20 small)

8/10 = 16/20

8*20 = 10*16 ... cross multiply

160 = 160

We get a true equation, so the first equation is true as well.

This shows the ratios are equivalent.

-------------

Or you could have...

(8 large)/(16 large) = (10 small)/(20 small)

8/16 = 10/20

8*20 = 16*10

160 = 160

We get the same conclusion as before.

Answer:

Exact heights of the next 100 babies born in a region.

Step-by-step explanation:

A discrete random variable involves two key factors ; discrete and randomness ; Hence, a discrete random variable should have a finite or countable Number of outputs or values. It should also stem from a random procedure. Here, the height of the next hundred babies is a random procedure as the next 100 babies in the region are unknown until Given birth too and as such all pregnant women have the chance of having their babies among. Since, we are dealing with exact height values which are countable (100), then we this is a discrete random variable.

Answer:

Neighborhood Q appears to have a bigger family size

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = the sum of all data values divided by the total number of data values

Number of families in Neighborhood Q = 9

Mean family size of Neighborhood Q:

= (2 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 5 + 3 + 6 + 5) ÷ 9

= 35 ÷ 9

= 3.888888...

Number of families in Neighborhood S = 9

Mean family size of Neighborhood S:

= (2 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 7 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 2) ÷ 9

= 27 ÷ 9

= 3

The mean family size of Neighborhood Q is 3.88..  and the mean family size of Neighborhood S is 3.  Therefore, Neighborhood Q appears to have a bigger family size as it's average family size is bigger than that of Neighborhood S.
