Answer:

Option C) The data are discrete because the data can take on specific value.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The numbers of languages spoken by different people.

The data would include points like English, Hindi, Marathi, and many more.

Thus, the data is discrete because the number of languages will always be expressed in whole numbers and thus it cannot take any value within an interval.

The value is calculated and not measured.

Thus, the correct answer is

Option C) The data are discrete because the data can take on specific value.

fire work a travels at the speed 300 ft/s firework b travels 240 ft/s. firework b is launched 0.25s before firework a. how many
storchak [24]

Answer:

Both fireworks  will explode after 1 seconds after firework b launches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Speed of fire work A= 300 ft/s

Speed of Firework B=240 ft/s

Time before which fire work b is launched =0.25s

To Find:

How many seconds after firework b launches will both fireworks explode=?

Solution:

Let t be the time(seconds) after which both the fireworks explode.

By the time the firework a has been launched, Firework B has been launch 0.25 s, So we can treat them as two separate equation

Firework A= 330(t)

Firework B=240(t)+240(0.25)

Since we need to know the same time after which they explode, we can equate both the equations

330(t) = 240(t)+240(0.25)

300(t)= 240(t)+60

300(t)-240(t)= 60

60(t)=60

t=\frac{60}{60}

t=1

The function f(x) is a quadratic function and a limited table of values is provided below. Write the equation of the quadratic p
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

  f(x) = 3x^2 -21x +36

Step-by-step explanation:

The table gives the x- and y-intercepts, which are sufficient to write the equation in factored form. The x-intercepts of 3 and 4 tell you that factors are (x -3)(x -4). When x=0, this product is (-3)(-4) = 12, but the y-intercept value is 3 times that: 36. So, the factored equation is ...

  f(x) = 3(x -3)(x -4)

Multiplying this out, we get ...

  f(x) = 3(x^2 -7x +12)

  f(x) = 3x^2 -21x +36
