State whether the data described below are discrete or continuous, and explain why. - The exact heights of different elephants. Choose the correct answer below.

A. The data are continuous because the data can take on any value in an interval.

B. The data are discrete because the data can only take on specific values.

C. The data are continuous because the data can only take on specific values.

D. The data are discrete because the data can take on any value in an interval.

The correct

The data are continuous because the data can take on any value in an interval. (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two categories of data:

Discrete data: These are data that have specific values that they can take on. There are limits to what values can be assigned to such categories. for example, The number of countries in a continent, there can either be 15 countries, 50 countries 30 countries, etc. There is not a possibility of having 40.56 countries on this kind of list. hence it is a discrete dataset.

Continuous data are data that can take on any value within an interval or on a particular scale of measurement. In this example, the height of the elephant in meters can be 1.5m, 2m, 1.06m, etc. There is no limit to the possibility of the height of an elephant on a meter scale.

step-by-step explanation:

$53.50

step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract the amount of money chuck earned ($72.50) by the cost of the gas for the mower ($11.25) and the new string for the trimmer he bought ($7.75).

72.50-11.25=61.25

and then subtract $61.25 by the second thing he bought (the new string for the trimmer)

61.25-7.75=53.5

so in total it's $53.50 (53 dollars and 50 cents)
