Answer and explanation:
First, let's understand the difference between categorical and quantitative variables. A quantitative variable can also be called a numerical variable. As this name suggests, it involves numbers. It can be measured numerically and be used in calculations - this is important, because not everything that has numbers is used in calculations; take the zip code as an example. On the other hand, a categorical variable cannot be expressed numerically in the same way described above. It is related to a certain quality or characteristic of something. For instance, you can attribute the number one to a person who is sick and the number two to a person who is not sick. The numbers are just a representation of the qualities; they won't be used in calculations. Now, we can safely judge the options given:
The price in dollars of statistics textbooks. --> quantitative
The working status of a computer part (working/not working). --> categorical
The gender of faculty in the mechanical engineering department. --> categorical
The number of miles until failure of a certain brand of tires. --> quantitative
The political party affiliation of students at OSU. --> categorical
The time to complete an exam. --> quantitative
The shirt sizes of a running club. --> categorical
The revision or amending of existing articles of the confederation was the main reason for calling the constitutional convention of 1797. The Constitutional Convention (1797) which is also known as the Philadelphia Conference, or the Grand Conference of Philadelphia) took place in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania from 25 May to 14 September 14.
Though the aim of this Convention was to amend (making changes in the existing articles) the Articles of Confederation, many of its promoters (or advocates) wanted to build the new government instead of solving the issues of the existing one.

Power of attorney is a legal document that gives authorization for a person to act on behalf of them. There are four types of power of attorney. They are as follows:
i) Special or Limited Power of Attorney
ii) Durable Power of Attorney
iii) Springing Durable Power of Attorney
