the temperature in celsius at different locations in an italian city.

answers

are these data qualitative or quantitative?
☐ qualitative ☐ quantitative

are these data discrete or continuous?
☐ discrete ☐ continuous ☐ neither

what is the highest level of measurement the data possesses?
options for level of measurement, partially visible

Explanation:

1. Temperature in Celsius is numerical and represents a measurable quantity, so it is quantitative data.
2. Temperature can take any value within a range (e.g., 22.5°C, 22.56°C) rather than only whole numbers, so it is continuous.
3. Celsius temperature has a defined order, equal intervals between values, but no true zero point (0°C does not mean the absence of temperature), so it is at the interval level of measurement.

Answer:
