qualitative (QL) variables. Indicate following examples of QN data are discrete (D) or
continuous (C).

( ) type of car owned,
( ) time of a train between Istanbul and Eskişehir,
( ) Gender
( ) Number of PC’s sold last year,
( ) Colour of desk

Answer 1

In this question, we identify the types of variables and whether they are discrete or continuous.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to identify whether the given variables are quantitative (QN) or qualitative (QL) and if the quantitative variables are discrete (D) or continuous (C). Let's go through each variable:

• ( ) type of car owned: This is a qualitative variable as it describes the category or type of car owned.
• ( ) time of a train between Istanbul and Eskişehir: This is a quantitative variable as it represents a measurement of time. It is also a continuous variable since time can take on any value within a certain range.
• ( ) Gender: This is a qualitative variable as it represents the category or class of gender.
• ( ) Number of PC’s sold last year: This is a quantitative variable as it represents a count or measurement of the number of PCs sold. It is also a discrete variable since it can only take on whole number values.
• ( ) Colour of desk: This is a qualitative variable as it represents the category or class of desk color.
