Answer:

Continuous: Height, weight, annual income.

Discrete: Number of children, number of students in a class.

Continuous data (like height) can (in theory) be measured to any degree of accuracy. If you consider a value line, the values can be anywhere on the line. For statistical purposes this kind of data is often gathered in classes (example height in 5 cm classes).

Discrete data (like number of children) are parcelled out one by one. On the value line they occupy only certain points. Sometimes discrete values are grouped into classes, but less often.

Can someone help me with this math problem

Answer:

C. Divide both sides of the equation by -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal of the equation is to isolate x. In order to do that we have to remove the '-2' by doing the inverse operation. That is the opposite operation, for example addition and subtraction, multiplication and division.

Since x is being multiplied by -2, we do the inverse which is division.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\tt{30.16 = 17.56 + 5x}$

Swap the sides of the equation :

⤑ $\tt{17.56 + 5x = 30.16}$

We want to remove the 17.56 first.

Since the original equation is 17.56 , we are going to use the opposite operation and subtract 17.56 from both sides :

⤑ $\tt{5x + 17.56 - 17.56 = 30.16 - 17.56}$

Simplify. 17.56 - 17.56 = 0 on the left. 30.16 - 17.36 = 12.6 on the right.

⤑ $\tt{5x = 12.6}$

Then, we need to think about how to remove the coefficient 5. Since the opposite of multiplication is division , I am going to divide both sides by 5.

⤑ $\tt{ \frac{5x}{5} = \frac{12.6}{5}}$
