Answer:
Continuous random variables: c and e
Discrete random variables: a, b, d
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to identify whether the random variable is discrete or continuous.
- A discrete variable is a variable whose value is obtained by counting.
- A continuous random variable X takes all values in a given interval of numbers.
- Thus, a continuous variable can have values in decimals but a discrete random variable cannot take values in decimals.
a. The number of statistics students now reading a book.
Discrete random variable since number of students cannot take decimal values.
b. The number of textbook authors now sitting at a computer.
Discrete random variable since number of textbooks cannot be expressed in decimals but counted.
c. The exact time it takes to evaluate 27 plus 72.
It is a continuous random variable as it may take all values within an interval of time.
d. The number of free dash throw attempts before the first shot is made.
It is a discrete random variable since the number of throws can always be whole number.
e. The time it takes to fly from City Upper A to City Upper B.
Time is a continuous random variable.
Answer:
30.67 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
A proportion is often useful for solving scale drawing problems.
actual size : drawing size = (room length) : (23 in) = (2 ft) : (1.5 in)
Multiplying by 23 in gives ...
room length = (2 ft)(23 in)/(1.5 in) = 46/1.5 ft = 30 2/3 ft
room length ≈ 30.67 ft.
Answer:
(3.10 x 10^10)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The formula of slope is "rise over run", where the "rise" (means change in y, up or down) and the "run" (means change in x, left or right)
In this problem
The tangent of angle of 5 degrees is equal to the quotient of "rise over run"
Let
y ----> the rise of the ramp
x ----> the run of the ramp

we have

substitute and solve for x
