Answer:

- It helps India developed its economy

- It helps India in their scientific development.

Explanation:

Without a numeral system, trades wouldn't be able to exist. People need a away to express the value of a product in a specific way.

For example, Let's say the price of the rice is 100 Rupee/ Kg. If we don't understand the concept of numerical value, we wouldn't be able to know the price of that rice per kg.

The same principle exist in scientific research. Numeral system allowed us to make a correct measurement when we observe how a certain variable interact with the other. Without it, we wouldn't be able to pinpoint an accurate conclusion for our scientific researches.

What do you think is the shape of the distribution of the age at which a child takes its first steps

Nuetrik [128]

Answer: Symmetric

Explanation:

The majority of children start walking at one and a half years so when the distribution is plotted on a histogram, it will be symmetric and unimodal. This means that it will have a single peak that is approximately 18 months.

This kind of distribution is a normal distribution and will have a shape similar to the one in the above diagram. This contrasts another type of distribution, the uniform distribution, when any value is possible, such as plotting the value of a card drawn from a complete deck.
