Find the common multiples:

Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48

Multiples of 9: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45

The common multiples are 18 and 36

The first person in line to get both free would be the 18th person and then the 36th person.

So she is correct that the 36th person would get both free, but they wouldn't be the first person to do it.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answers:

Gender = categorical, nominal variable

Sleep length = numerical, continuous

Bedtime = categorical, ordinal

Number of countries visited = numerical, discrete

Scale of dreading semester = categorical, ordinal

=========================

Explanation:

Gender is categorical because there are two categories or labels, male or female. It is nominal because we simply attach names to each label and we can't sort them or order them from highest to lowest. There is no ranking for gender.

Sleep length is numerical as it deals with numbers. I put continuous because someone could write 2.5 hours or 3.75 hours. If whole numbers are only allowed, then the variable would be discrete.

The bedtime portion is categorical as each time slot is a category. Like with the first part, they are simply labels. We can order them however from earliest to later on, which is why this variable is ordinal.

The number of countries visited is numeric as expected, and it's also discrete because we can't visit 0.1 of a country. By "visit", I mean step foot in any part of the country for any length of time. It does not mean you have to explore every square inch of the territory.

The last part is categorical and ordinal. The scale ranking is ordered for us from 1 to 5. Despite the fact we have numbers here, the data is not numerical as the numbers 1 through 5 represent labels of "very little" through "a lot".

1. If you wanted to make a triangle with side lengths of 3 units, 3 units, and 4
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Since 4 is the largest number its the hypotenuse. The two 3s are equal so they are interchangeable so it doesn't matter where you put them. If its a right triangle the hypotenuse is opposite the right angle.

Explain the relationship between multiplying and diving by 10, 100, and 1,000 and moving the decimal point to the right or to th
zhannawk [14.2K]
If you're multiplying by 10, you're moving the decimal point to the right, the same with any multiplication in the 10's, so 100, 1,000, etc. This is because you are making the number 10 times larger, so if you had 3.4, the 4 is in the 1/10 column so multiplying by 10 would put it in the units column, making the number 34.

On the other hand, dividing by the 10's makes the decimal point move to the left because you are making the number 10 times smaller, so if the units column is worth 1, then 10 times less than that is 1/10, which is the first decimal place.

I hope this helps! I tried to explain it well but let me know if you still don't understand or if I've confused you in any way :)

equation
y = 2/3x + 4
3y = 2x + 12

answer is c.3y = 2x + 12
