What are the answer options?
Answer:
the last choice
Step-by-step explanation:
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.

Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The marked sides are proportional, so we have ...
x/8 = (x +5)/12
3x = 2(x +5) . . . . . multiply by 24 to clear fractions
3x = 2x + 10 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
x = 10 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2x
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
We observe that the difference between the upper segment lengths is ...
(x +5) -(x) = 5
and the difference between the lower segment lengths is ...
12 -8 = 4
This means the upper segment lengths are 5/4 times as long as the lower segments. Then ...
x = (5/4)(8) = 10
Consider the number 480 in expanded form:
... 480 = 4×100 + 8×10
The left-most digit and multiplier are those that correspond to the ones you use in scientific notation.. You recall that 100 = 10×10 = 10². All this means is that
... 480 = 4.8×10²
