Answer 1

Answer:

2. The duration a flight from Boston to Minneapolis? Continuous Ratio

3. The number of Nobel Prize-winning faculty at Oxnard University? Discrete Ratio

4. Temperature in degrees Celsius at 7 o'clock this morning? Continuous Interval

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Nominal data deals with the classification of items based on their names or labels. They are qualitative in nature. The type of charge card used by a customer is an example.

2. Continuous data are quantitative data that can appear in decimal forms. They are obtained by measurement.

3. Discrete data is also quantitative data that cannot be divided. They appear as whole numbers.

4. Interval data has the same difference between the variables. They do not have a true zero. For example, there is nothing like 0 degree Celsius. Ratio data on the other hand is interval data with a true zero.
