Answer and explanation:
Discrete random variables can be counted as integers and you can't divide them. Continuous random variables are counted as real numbers and are magnitudes that can´t be counted as an exact number (there will always be an uncertainty in the measurement).
a. The random variable is continuous. Distance is a measurement.
b. The random variable is discrete. You can count how many people are sitting at a computer.
c. The random variable is continuous. Weight is a measurement.
d. The random variable is discrete. You can count how many fishes were caught.
e. The random variable is discrete. You can count how many hints a web site had.
Answer:
6y+3xy
Step-by-step explanation:
You can combine the y's together to get this answer
First you would find the sum of 187.56 and 49.73 which is 237.29 then you subtract this number from 18.65 which is 218.64 that's your answer
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.
First, we find the area of the circle.
A = pi * r^2
A = pi * (1 cm)^2
A = pi cm^2
The area of the circle is pi cm^2.
The area of the triangle is also pi cm^2.
Now we use the area of a triangle.
A = (1/2)bh
(1/2)bh = A
(1/2)(3 cm)h = pi cm^2
(3 cm)h = 2pi cm^2
h = (2/3)pi cm
The exact height is 
If you want an approximate height, then it is 2.09 cm.
