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.
A ray has only one endpoint and goes on forever in the other direction. A segment has two endpoints
Answer:
This is a 30-60-90 triangle so you would do this formula:
Short side (opposite the 30 degree angle) = x.
Hypotenuse (opposite the 90 degree angle) = 2x.
Long side (opposite the 60 degree angle) = x√3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Phillip is correct. The triangles are <u>not </u>congruent.
How do we know this? Because triangle ABC has the 15 inch side between the two angles 50 and 60 degrees. The other triangle must have the same set up (just with different letters XYZ). This isn't the case. The 15 inch side for triangle XYZ is between the 50 and 70 degree angle.
This mismatch means we cannot use the "S" in the ASA or AAS simply because we don't have a proper corresponding pair of sides. If we knew AB, BC, XZ or YZ, then we might be able to use ASA or AAS.
At this point, there isn't enough information. So that means John and Mary are incorrect, leaving Phillip to be correct by default.
Note: Phillip may be wrong and the triangles could be congruent, but again, we don't have enough info. If there was an answer choice simply saying "there isn't enough info to say either if the triangles are congruent or not", then this would be the best answer. Unfortunately, it looks like this answer is missing. So what I bolded above is the next best thing.
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 2 = 3x + 4(2x - 1)
Distribute the 4
5x + 2 = 3x + 8x - 4
Combine like terms
5x + 2 = 11x - 4
Subtract 5x from each side
5x -5x + 2 = 11x - 5x - 4
2 = 6x-4
Add 4 to each side
2+4 = 6x-4+4
6 = 6x
Divide each side by 6
6/6 =6x/6
1= x
