Answer:

Categorical data includes

b. How did you pay for the vehicle? (Cash, Lease, or Finance)

c. How likely would you be to recommend this vehicle to a friend? (Definitely Not, Probably Not, Probably Will, and Definitely Will)

e. What is your overall rating of your new vehicle? A 1 to 10 point scale, ranging from I for unacceptable to 10 for truly exceptional, was used.

Quantitative data includes

a. What price did you pay for the vehicle?

d. What is the current mileage?

Step-by-step explanation:

Categorical data refers to the kind of data in which the variables are grouped based on a particular quality, ticking a particular box or satisfying some specific requirements.

It uses one or more qualitative property/properties to assign variables into a limited, usually fixed groups or categories. Note that the qualitative property might be a grouped data of numerical values. As long as there are easily separable and recognizable groups, it is categorical data.

This is also called qualitative data.

Quantitative data is a data that is strictly about numerical values. A dataset that consists of numerical values of the members of the dataset. Deals almost exclusively with numbers, usually ungrouped.

So, examining the given datasets one at a time

a. What price did you pay for the vehicle?

The answer to this question is a numerical value and for various customers, it builds up a dataset of strictly numerical values. Hence, this resulting data is a quantitative data.

b. How did you pay for the vehicle? (Cash, Lease, or Finance)

The answers to this question can only take 3 forms; Cash, Lease or Finance, indicating that all the variables in the dataset can only take on limited, fixed number of groups/categories. Hence, this dataset is a categorical data.

c. How likely would you be to recommend this vehicle to a friend? (Definitely Not, Probably Not, Probably Will, and Definitely Will)

The answers to this question too can take on 4 limited, fixed categories or groups, Hence, it's easy to see that this dataset is also categorical data.

d. What is the current mileage?

The answer to this question is a numerical value. Various answers from numerous persons would lead to a data of numbers. Hence, this is a quantitative data.

e. What is your overall rating of your new vehicle? A 1 to 10 point scale, ranging from I for unacceptable to 10 for truly exceptional, was used.

Limited, fixed categories or groups (10 groups) are also available for this data, hence, it is easily a categorical data.

Hope this Helps!!!

Kyle and Cooper are driving. Kyle drives 5 mph faster than Cooper. The same amount of time of Kyle drives 87.1 miles Cooper driv
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

  • Kyle, 67 mph
  • Cooper, 62 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Their difference in distance is 87.1 -80.6 = 6.5 miles. Since their difference in speed is 5 mph, it took them (6.5 mi)/(5 mi/h) = 1.3 hours to achieve that separation.

Kyle's speed is 87.1 mi/(1.3 h) = 67 mi/h.

Cooper's speed is 80.6 mi/(1.3 h) = 62 mi/h. (5 mi/h slower)

Kyle is driving 67 mph; Cooper is driving 62 mph.

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

The ratio of their speeds is 87.1/80.6 = 67/62. The difference in ratio units happens to equal their difference in miles per hour, so their speeds must be 67 and 62 miles per hour.
