Question
Suppose multiple class sections are surveyed to determine the effect of commuting on student performance. Several questions are asked as part of the survey. Which of the following is a continuous random variable X?
Let X = the number of students in a class section who commute to school.
Let X = the number of days a randomly selected student commuted to school in the past week.
Let X = commute time per student.
All of these
None of these
a.Let X = the number of students in a class section who commute to school.
b.Let X = the number of days a randomly selected student commuted to school in the past week.
c.Let X = commute time per student.
d.All of these
e.None of these
Explanation / Answer
Relatively X=commute time per student is a continuous variable
The number of students cannot be divided into points nor the number of days.
But the time can be divided.
Hence Ans: Option c)
