Four scales of measurement are: nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio.

Mathematics
1 answer:
RideAnS [48]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The answer are (a) measurement on ordinary scale can be ranked, but on nominal scale observation cannot be ranked, (b)  on the interval scale measurement can be compared in terms of difference of magnitude, but on ordinary scale, observations cannot be compared in terms of magnitude (c) the point of zero is arbitrary and can be found in any where on the measurement of interval scale

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation

(a) In nominal scale measurement, observations are classified but in ordinal scale measurement  observations are ranked

Therefore additional information of comparing ranking in observation when measurement are gotten from ordinary scale as compared to nominal measurement.

(b) In interval scale measurement  can be compared by different magnitude  because it is ranked, while ordinary scale measurement, observation can be ranked for comparison

For example the grade of student in a school are grouped under the ordinary scale of measurement due to the fact that Grade A is greater than B

Therefore we have extra information of contrasting observations based on magnitude differences when measurement are gotten form interval scale  as against  ordinary scale

(c) In the interval scale of measurement,  observations are compared in terms of magnitude differences. the point of zero is arbitrary and can found anywhere

For example if a person has no salary what this means is that he has rupes of zero (salary)

Then again, the additional information of the zero point of arbitrary is when measurement is gotten from interval scale. what this suggest is that none is in the scale of ratio

A package of Big Bubbles Gum has 10 pieces and sells for 2.90. A package of fruity gum has 20 pieces and sells for 6.20. Compare
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

The unit price for the Big Bubbles Gum is 0.29 cents, while the unit price for the fruity gum is 0.31 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

First identify what you know:

1) A package of Bug Bubbles Wrap, containing 10 pieces of gum, sells for a total of $2.90.

2) A package of fruity gum, with 20 pieces of gum, sells for a total of $6.20.

What is the unit price? The unit price is how much you're selling for a single piece within the package! If you were to buy just one packet, how much would it cost? To calculate this, simply divide the total cost of the package, but the number of units, or rather, pieces!

$2.90/10 = 0.29 cents

$6.20/20 = 0.31 cents

From this, we see that a single unit (piece) of the Big Bubble Gum, is only 29 cents, while a single unit (piece) of the fruity gum is 31 cents. So, it would be a better deal to buy the Big Bubble Gum!

For, twenty of the Big Bubble Gum, you'd buy two packages, for $5.80, which is 40 cents less than one package of 20 pieces of fruity gum!

Hope this helps! :)

Write a function with the following characteristics: 1.A vertical asymptote at x = 3 A horizontal asymptote at y = 2 An x-interc
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

1. The vertical asymptote requires the denominator have a zero at that location. The x-intercept requires the numerator have a zero at that location. The horizontal asymptote amounts to a multiplier of the function:

... y = 2(x +5)/(x -3)

2. The vertical asymptote requires the denominator have a zero at that location. The oblique asymptote is an add-on

... y = 1/(x +1) +(x +2)

... y = (x² +3x +3)/(x +1)

A sequence is defined by the formula f(n+1)=f(n)-3. If f(4)=22, what is f(1)?
Vlad [161]
<h3>Answer: Choice C) 31</h3>

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

Explanation:

The recursive rule

f(n+1)=f(n)-3

can be rearranged to

f(n) = f(n+1)+3

after adding 3 to both sides

----------------

Now let's say we plug in n = 3

f(n) = f(n+1)+3

f(3) = f(3+1)+3

f(3) = f(4)+3

f(3) = 22+3

f(3) = 25

Repeat for n = 2

f(n) = f(n+1)+3

f(2) = f(2+1)+3

f(2) = f(3)+3

f(2) = 25+3

f(2) = 28

Each time we keep adding 3 to get the previous term (since the original recursive rule says to subtract 3 to get the next term; we just go backwards of what the instructions say).

Lastly, we can find that f(1) = f(2)+3 = 28+3 = 31 making the answer to be choice C.
