Question

identify the type of data that would be used to describe a response. number of students enrolled at skyline college qualitative (categorical) quantitative - continuous quantitative - discrete hint: data categories

Explanation:

To determine the data type:

1. Qualitative data is non - numerical (categories). The number of students is numerical, so eliminate "Qualitative (Categorical)".
2. Continuous data can take any value in an interval (e.g., height, weight). The number of students must be a whole number (you can't have a fraction of a student), so it's not continuous.
3. Discrete data consists of distinct, countable values (like counts of people, objects). The number of students enrolled is a countable whole number, so it's quantitative - discrete.

Answer:

C. Quantitative - Discrete
