Quantitative = | Q | Ratio = | R | |||
Qualitative = | QL | Interval = | I | |||
Discrete = | D | Ordinal = | O | |||
Continuous = | C | Nominal = | N | |||
Variable: | The time it takes to walk one mile. | |||||
a | QL O | |||||
b | QL N | |||||
c | Q C I | |||||
d | Q D R | |||||
e | Q C R |
Solution:
We are given that following variable:
The time it takes to walk one mile.
We have to classify the type of variable identified below using the following notation:
Quantitative = | Q | Ratio = | R |
Qualitative = | QL | Interval = | I |
Discrete = | D | Ordinal = | O |
Continuous = | C | Nominal = | N |
Time can be measured in numbers , so this is Quantitative variable ( That is Q)
Time to walk one mile can have infinite possible values in certain range of time interval , so this is continuous type of variable.( That is C)
Time to walk one mile is ratio, since time has natural zero point.( that is R)
Thus correct option is : e. Q C R
