Similar polygons only differ by a scaling factor. In other words, two polygons are similar if one is the scaled version of the other.
In particular, this implies that the angles are preserved, and the correspondent sides are in proportion.
These two polygons are both rectangles, so the angles are preserved. We must check the sides, and we have to check if the smaller sides are in the same proportion as the bigger sides.
So, the two rectangles are similar if the following is true.
In any proportion, the product of the inner terms must be the same as the product of the outer terms:
This is clearly false, and thus the two rectangles are not similar.
Answer:
Discrete. See explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to remember some previous concepts:
We have two types of numerical data: Discrete and Continuous
When we say Discrete data we are refering to data that is countable or can be expressed with integers in a domain.
In the other case when we talk about continuous data we are refering to data that is continuous in a specified domain, it can contain decimals or rational numbers in the Real numbers for example.
For this special case we know that they select a sample size of n=1020 and the sample proportion of people in the United States who wash their hands after riding public transportation was 0.44 or 44% in percentage.
But the number of subjects on this survey needs to be Discrete, since the possible values are 0,1,2,3,4,.....,n and never we have decimals or continuous data in order to express this.
