Answer:

The data is quantitative (because it is asking for measurement or numbers).

Explanation:

The second and third I'm not sure how to answer, however,

"A discrete function is a function with distinct and separate values. This means that the values of the functions are not connected with each other. For example, a discrete function can equal 1 or 2 but not 1.5. A continuous function, on the other hand, is a function that can take on any number within a certain interval. For example, if at one point, a continuous function is 1 and 2 at another point, then this continuous function will definitely be 1.5 at yet another point. A continuous function always connects all its values while a discrete function has separations. Now, let's look at these two types of functions in detail."

Hope this helps :)
