Question

Determine if the following is discrete or continuous data: The function c =
12p gives the cost c based on the number of pizzas p.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, discrete data is separate, by itself, but continuous data goes on and can have numbers in between.  So this problem is c = 12p is the cost of pizzas, you can have 1 pizza, 2 pizzas, 10 pizzas, 30 pizzas, etc., but you can't have 2.1314552 pizzas or 4.5, etc., so the data is discrete. Think of the graph, you would not connect the dots if you were graphing this data.
