enot [183]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A. The data are continuous because the data can take on any value in an interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

A continuous data is any data set having infinitely many possible values and those values cannot be counted, meaning they are uncountable. Any quantity such as height, volume, weight, density, length, pressure, temperature, speed, distance, time are generally a continuous data.

Hence, the exact heights of different elephants represents a continuous data because the data can take on any value in an interval.

On the other hand, a discrete data is any data set in which the number of possible values are either finite or countable. Thus, a discrete data can only take on specific values. For example, the value of a fair die, number of sweets in a jar, number of eggs in a crate etc.

What are the parallel sides of a trapezoid​
saul85 [17]

Answer:

Parallel means that the lines will never cross. If we look at a  traditional trapezoid, the top side and the bottom side are straight lines that will never cross one another. The left and right sides are slanted towards one another, to they are not parallel.

Hope this helped. : )

How to solve linear equations using graphs
Artemon [7]

Explanation:

We usually use graphs to solve two linear equations in two unknowns.

The basic idea is that a graph of an equation is the pictorial representation of all of the points that satisfy the equation. So, where the graph of one equation crosses the graph of another, the point where they cross will satisfy both equations.

Finding a solution means finding values of the variables that satisfy all of the equations. Hence, the point of intersection is the solution of the equations.

__

To solve linear equations by graphing, graph each of the equations. Then find the coordinates of the point where the lines intersect. Those coordinates are the solution to the equations.

If the solution is not at a grid point on the graph, determining its exact value may not be easy. This can often be aided by a graphing calculator, which can often tell you the point of intersection to calculator accuracy.

__

If the lines don't intersect, there are no solutions. If they are the same line (intersect everywhere), then there are an infinite number of solutions.

Reduce 720/1080 little cunfused
Veronika [31]
To reduce a fraction, divide the numerator and the denominator equally until they reach the simplest whole number possible. 

In this case, the numerator (720) and the denominator (1080) can both be divided by 360 to get 2/3, our reduced fraction.
