b) Second Column of the Table

c) Third Column of the Table

d) Forth Column of the Table

Short Answer

Expert verified

A) Quantitative Continuous Variable

B) Quantitative Continuous Variable

C) Quantitative Continuous Variable

D) Qualitative Categorical Variable

Step by step solution

01

Basics

  • Quantitative variables can be measured in terms of numerical units.

Ordinal variables are in form of ranks - 1st, 2nd, 3rd & so on

Continuous variable can be in form of whole & non whole numbers - can take values like 4.8, 10.5 etc

  • Qualitative variables can't be measured in terms of numerical units.

Categorical variables can take only few options or categories, like gender 'male' or 'female'

02

Explanation

1st column depicts time in non whole values, it is Quantitative Continuous Variable

2nd column depicts magnitude in whole amounts, it is Quantitative Continuous Variable

3rd column depicts depth in non whole amounts, it is Qualitative Continuous Variable

4th column depicts names of countries, it is Qualitative Categorical Variable

Most popular questions from this chapter

Interpreting a Histogram. In Exercises 5–8, answer the questions by referring to the following Minitab-generated histogram, which depicts the weights (grams) of all quarters listed in Data Set 29 “Coin Weights” in Appendix B. (Grams are actually units of mass and the values shown on the horizontal scale are rounded.)

Gap What is a reasonable explanation for the gap between the quarters with weights between 5.5 grams and 5.8 grams and the group of quarters with weights between 6.0 grams and 6.4 grams? (Hint: Refer to the columns of quarters in Data Set 29 “Coin Weights” in Appendix B.)

Time-Series Graphs. In Exercises 9 and 10, construct the time-series graph.

Home Runs Listed below are the numbers of home runs in Major League Baseball for each year beginning with 1990 (listed in order by row). Is there a trend?

3317 3383 3038 4030 3306 4081 4962 4640 5064 5528 5693 5458 5059 5207 5451 5017 5386 4957 4878 5042 4613 4552 4934 4661

In Exercises 19 and 20, construct the relative frequency distributions and answer the given questions.

Blood Platelet Counts Construct one table (similar to Table 2-9 on page 47) that includes relative frequencies based on the frequency distributions from Exercises 7 and 8 and then compare them. Are there notable differences?

In Exercises 5–8, identify the class width, class midpoints, and class boundaries for the given frequency distribution. Also identify the number of individuals included in the summary. The frequency distributions are based on real data from Appendix B.

Expanded Stemplots A stemplot can be condensed by combining adjacent rows. We could use a stem of “6–7” instead of separate stems of 6 and 7. Every row in the condensed stemplot should include an asterisk to separate digits associated with the different stem values. A stemplot can be expanded by subdividing rows into those with leaves having digits 0 through 4 and those with leaves having digits 5 through 9. Using the body temperatures from 12 AM on Day 2 listed in Data Set 3 “Body Temperatures” in Appendix B, we see that the first three rows of an expanded stemplot have stems of 96 (for leaves between 5 and 9 inclusive), 97 (for leaves between 0 and 4 inclusive), and 97 (for leaves between 5 and 9 inclusive). Construct the complete expanded stemplot for the body temperatures from 12 AM on Day 2 listed in Data Set 3 “Body Temperatures” in Appendix B.
