Answer:
A. Continuous, B. Discrete, C. Continuous, D. Continuous, E. Continuous.
Step-by-step explanation:
A. Area is a continuous unit. Then, the floor area of a kitchen is a continuous random variable.
B. Quantity is a discrete unit. Then, the number of bacteria in a particular cubic centimeter of drinking water is a discrete random variable.
C. The money amount is a continuous unit. Then, the dollar amount of the change in my pocket is a continuous random variable.
D. The pressure is a continuous unit. Then, the barometric pressure at a given location is a continuous random variable.
E. Time is a continuous unit. Then, the difference in reaction time to the same stimulus before and after training is a continuous random variable.
Answer:
5 13/15 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
0.15 is bigger, this is because the 0.05 in 0.15 has more value than 0.02 in 0.125, even though it has a third digit.

Answer:
x ∈ {2.07014981016}
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation can be rewritten as ...
√x = 18-8x
x = 324 -288x +64x²
64x² -289x +324 = 0
x = (289 ±√577)/128 ≈ {2.07015, 2.44548}
Since √x must be positive, we know that ...
18 -8x ≥ 0
x ≤ 18/8 = 2.25
The larger of the above solutions is extraneous, so the solution set is ...
x ∈ {(289 -√577)/128} ≈ {2.07015}
Answer:
6+(-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
6 is positive but we are subtracting 2. Therefore, the expression is 6 plus -2. It is negative because that is what we are taking away. The plus sign does not mean anything because there is a negative number. When you look at it, you immediately read 6 plus -2 and since it is a negative not a positive then it's subtracting not adding.
