D. categorical data is your answer :)

Solution:

O k, to answer this question , let us suppose that there are 75 kinds of fishes found in Lake Michigan,each being approximately 1 million in number.

So, the types of fishes suppose are , A, B,C.AB,A BB, A BBB,.....we will differentiate them according to their Quality,but their number are in million, which we can call numerical data or Quantitative data.

We can't give the fishes in lake as discrete value, as it does not take certain random values.

As, the data set is about different kind of fishes, which is being categorised for their study.

So we will call this data as (D) Categorical data.

Identify the slope and y-intercept for the linear equation below.<br> y = 1/3x+7

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Slope is 1/3.

Y-intercept is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b is the slope-intercept form.

m = slope

b = y-intercept

In the equation, y = 1/3x + 7

m = 1/3

b = 7

Therefore, slope is 1/3 and y-intercept is 7.

Write down the quadratic equation whose roots are $x = -7$ and $x = 1,$ and the coefficient of $x^2$ is 1. Enter your answer in

pav-90 [236]

<h2>Steps:</h2>

So firstly, since we know that the coefficient of x² is 1, this means that this is our base equation:

y = x² + bx + c

Now, since we know that the roots are -7 and 1, set y = 0 and set x = -7 and 1 and simplify:

$0=(-7)^2+b(-7)+c\\0=49-7b+c\\-49=-7b+c\\\\0=1^2+b(1)+c\\0=1+b+c\\-1=b+c\\\\-49=-7b+c\\-1=b+c$

Now with this, we can set up a system of equations to solve for b and c. For this, I will be using the elimination method. For this, subtract the 2 equations:

$\begin{alignedat}{2}-49&=-7b+c\\-(-1&=b+c)\\-48&=-8b\end{alignedat}$

Now that the c variable has been eliminated we can solve for b. For this, divide both sides by -8 and your first part of your answer is b = 6.

Now that we know the value of b, plug it into either equation to solve for c:

$-49=-7(6)+c\\-49=-42+c\\-7=c\\\\-1=6+c\\-7=c$

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Putting it together, your final answer is x² + 6x - 7 = 0.</u>

Determine which of the four levels of measurement (nominal, ordinal, interval, ratio) is most appropriate. ages of children: 3

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The level of variable ages of children is ratio.

Explanation:

Nominal scale is the one which takes categories as its values like gender of a person.

Ordinal scale is the one which is used to show the order of values with no clear difference among them like satisfaction level of people with a service.

Interval scale is the one which shows the clear order of values with clear difference between the values with out true zero.

Ordered scale is one which not only produces the order of variables but also makes the difference between variables known along with information on the value of true zero.

Therefore, the variable which is under consideration here is the ages of children, which takes the values 3,4,5,6 and 7 is a ratio scale.
