Answer:

<em>This type of data are not measurement of anything , so it is not feasible  to calculate their average(Mean) </em>

Step-by-step explanation:T

<em>The data are at the level of measurement that are Nominal</em>

<em> In level of nominal measurement, letters, numeric and alpha-numeric, words, symbols are used to classify data in the example stated.</em>

<em> Now we recall that,</em>

<em>Brown hair = 100,</em>

<em>Blond hair = 200,</em>

<em>Black hair = 300</em>

<em>Anything else = 400</em>

<em>Thus,  100, 200, 300, 400 are used as code numbers for hair colors and does not have any importance to their  values numerically.</em>

<em>There is no arithmetic solutions such as  average, total which cannot be solved  using these numbers.</em>

<em>Therefore the average mean  calculated is not feasible</em>

Answer:

The level of measurement of the date is: nominal level of measurement.

Such data are not counts or measures of​ anything, so it makes no sense to compute their average​ (mean)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data are at the nominal level of measurement. Nominal data is not measurable and cannot be ordered as well. It is qualitative in nature and not quantitative. For example this nominal data type can be measured of categorized as yes or no, high or low, mild, moderate or severe, male or female etc. So there is no point of calculating average of such qualitative data and nominal level of measurement deals with qualitative variables.

Use (r,16) to solve y=2x-4
damaskus [11]
(x,y) = (r,16)

With this knowledge, plug in r for x, and 16 for y

16 = 2(r) - 4

Isolate the r, add 4 to both sides

16 (+4) = 2r - 4 (+4)

20 = 2r

Divide 2 from both sides

20/2 = 2r/2

r = 20/2

r = 10

Mara carried water bottles to the field to share with her team at halftime. The water bottles weighed a total of 60x2 + 48x + 24
ludmilkaskok [199]

For this case we have the following polynomial:

60x ^ 2 + 48x + 24

What we must do for this case is to factor the polynomial, so that we have:

1) The number of bottles

2) the weight of each bottle.

We have then:

12 (5x ^ 2 + 4x + 2)

Answer:

A factorization that could represent the number of water bottles and weight of each water bottle is:

12 (5x ^ 2 + 4x + 2)
