Answer:

a) Discrete Variable

b) Continuous Variable

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Discrete and Continuous:

  • Discrete data are the data whose value can be expressed in whole number. They cannot take all the values within an interval.
  • Discrete variables are usually counted than measured.
  • Continuous variable can be expressed in the form of decimals. They can take any value within an interval.
  • Continuous variables are usually measured than counted.

​(a) The number of free dash throw attempts before the first shot is made. ​

Since the number of shots made will always be expressed in whole numbers and the number of shots made will counted and not measured. Thus, number of free dash throw attempts before the first shot is made. is a discrete variable.

(b) The distance a baseball travels in the air after being hit.

The distance is a continuous variable as its value can be expressed in decimals. Also distance is always measured and not counted. Thus, distance a baseball travels in the air after being hit is a continuous variable.

Can someone help me with this please
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

B = 22

C = 122

D = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles of a triangle add to 180. Take the measure of each angle add them together. Set them equal to 180.

2x + x + 4 + 7x - 4 = 180

10x = 180

x = 18

To find each angle, substitute x = 18.

Angle B is 18 + 4 = 22

Angle C is 7(18) - 4 = 122

Angle D is 2(18) = 36

Firlakuza [10]

Answer: 19 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

<FOE is the central angle of an arc of 52 degrees and is thus 52 degrees.  Then by supplementary angles <COD is 71 degrees and angle BOA is thus also 71 degrees.  Then by supplementary angles <BOC is 19 degrees and arc BC is thus also 19 degrees.
