Determine whether the value is a discrete random​ variable, continuous random​ variable, or not a random variable. a. The number of people with blood type A in a random sample of 26 people b. The exact time it takes to evaluate 27+72 c. The gender of college students d. The number of hits to a website in a day e. The number of bald eagles in a country f. The distance a baseball travels in the air after being hit a. Is the number of people with blood type A in a random sample of 26 people a discrete random​ variable, a continuous random​ variable, or not a random​ variable?

a) it is a discrete random variable

b) It is a continuous random variable

c) It is not a random variable

d) It is a discrete random variable

e)  It is a discrete random variable

f) It is a continuous random variable

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation,

Continuous Random Variable  

A continuous variable is one that can take on an uncountable set of values.

It may take any values within an interval.

It can take infinite values within an interval.

They are obtained by measuring rather than counting.

Discrete Random Variable  

These can only take a discrete value and cannot be expressed in the form of decimals.

They are obtained by counting rather than measuring.

a). it is a discrete random variable  ⇒ as a number of people is a discrete count, which takes values such as 0 or 1 or 2.

b). The exact time it takes to evaluate 27+72 ⇒ Since, Time is measured and thus it is a continuous random variable.

c). The gender of college students ⇒ Gender is categorical data. It is neither continuous nor discrete.

d).  The number of hits to a website in a day ⇒ Since the number of people cannot be expressed as decimals, thus it is a discrete random variable

e). The number of bald eagles in a country ⇒ Since the number of people cannot be expressed as decimals, thus it is a discrete random variable

f).  The distance a baseball travels in the air after being hit  ⇒ Distance is measured and thus it is a continuous random variable.

-7

step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 18x + 74 = (x + 9)^2 - 81 + 74

= (x + 9)^2 - 7.

so q = -7.

36 girls

step-by-step explanation:

the 48 boys is 4 parts of the ratio

divide 48 by 4 to obtain one part of the ratio

= 12 ← 1 part of the ratio

3 parts = 3 × 12 = 36 ← number of girls
