To determine
To write: The name of the place position of the digit 7 in the number 9.4758.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1ECP
The name of the place position of the digit 7 in the number 9.4758 is hundredths.
Explanation of Solution
The given number is 9.4758.
Use the place value table to find the decimal notation of the given statement.
| Ones | Decimal point | Tenths | Hundredths | Thousandths | Ten thousandths |
| 9 | . | 4 | 7 | 5 | 8 |

indicated below
i.
Generate the log of birthweight and family income of children. Name
these new variables Ibwght & Ifaminc. Include the output of this
code.
ii. Apply the command sum with the detail option to the variable
faminc. Note: you should find the 25th percentile value, the 50th
percentile and the 75th percentile value of faminc from the output -
you will need it to answer the next question Include the output of this
code.

iv.
Use the output from part ii of this question to Generate a variable
called "high_faminc" that takes a value 1 if faminc is less than or
equal to the 25th percentile, it takes the value 2 if faminc is greater
than 25th percentile but less than or equal to the 50th percentile, it
takes the value 3 if faminc is greater than 50th percentile but less than
or equal to the 75th percentile, it takes the value 4 if faminc is greater
than the 75th percentile. Include the outcome of this code…

The floor of x, written [x], also called the integral part, integer part, or greatest integer, is defined as the greatest integer less than or equal to x.

The simple pidgeonhole principle states that, if you have N places and k items (k> N), then at least one hole must have more than one item in it. We tried this with chairs and students: Assume you have N = 12 chairs and k = 18 students. Then at least one chair must have more than one student on it. 3.
