Answer:

A=discrete; B=continuous

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The number of free dash throw attempts before the first shot is = discrete

(b) The time it takes for a light bulb to burn out.=continuous

Discrete variables are countable in a finite amount of time such as the case of free dash throw attempts

Continuous Variables are more difficult to count. In statistics, time is a Continuous Variable

Determine whether the random variable is discrete or continuous. In each​ case, state the possible values of the random variable
