Classify the following variable as nominal, ordinal, discrete, or continuous and state why it is such a variable:
weight of a textbook
------
It's not a name so it's not nomial
It's not the order of something, so it's not ordiinal
It's not an exact value (weights can vary depending on the weighing
instrument) so it's not discrete.
---
It's continuous.
