Question

determine whether the variable given is qualitative - nominal, qualitative - ordinal, quantitative - discrete, or quantitative - continuous. variable: the time it takes to commute to campus
○ quantitative - continuous since this variable would yield numbers that measure
○ quantitative - discrete since this variable would yield numbers that count
○ qualitative - nominal since this variable would yield categories with no implied order
○ qualitative - ordinal since this variable would yield categories with an order

Explanation:

Commute time is a numerical measurement that can take any value within a range (e.g., 15.2 minutes, 22.7 minutes), not just whole numbers. This fits the definition of a quantitative-continuous variable, as it measures a quantity with infinite possible values between any two points, rather than counting distinct items or representing unordered/ordered categories.

Answer:

quantitative-continuous since this variable would yield numbers that measure
