Answer:

1. Number of warts on a toad ⇒ <em>discrete  variable</em>

2. Survival time after poisoning ⇒ <em>continuous  variable</em>

3. Temperature of porridge ⇒ <em>continuous  variable</em>

4. Number of bread crumbs in 10 meters of trail ⇒ <em>discrete  variable</em>

5. Length of wolves’ canines ⇒ <em>continuous variable</em>

A discrete variable is the one which takes over range of real number, for a value in range that variables are permitted to take, there is minimum distance to nearest permissible value. In contrast, continuous variables are the one which can take infinitely many values.

In 1980, the median age of the U.S. population was 30.0; in 2000, the median age was 35.3.
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

y = 0.265x - 494.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let median age be represent by 'a' and time be represent by 't'

In 1980, median age is given 30

which means that

a₁ = 30

t₁ = 1980

In 2000, the median age is given 35.3

which means that.

a₂ = 35.3

t₂ = 2000

The slope 'm' of the linear equation can be found by:

m = (a₂ - a₁) /(t₂ - t₁)

m = (35.3 - 30)/(2000-1980)

m = 0.265

General form of linear equation is given by:

y = mx + c

y = 0.265x +c

Substitute point (1980,30) in the equation.

30 = 0.265(1980) + c

c = -494.7

Hence the the linear equation can be written as:

y = mx + c

y = 0.265x - 494.7

six friends share 5 meat pies. each friend first eats half of a meat pie. how much more meat pie does each friend need to eat to
Margaret [11]
So at the beginning, the friends eat 3 meat pies in total. So that leaves two meat pies left. 
So basically, we divide the meat pies by the number of friends.
2/6 is 1/3
So each friend needs to eat 1/3 of a meat pie
