Identify the level of measurement (nominal, ordinal, or interval-ratio) of each of the following variables: (1) How satisfied a person is with his or her employment benefits, measured as very satisfied, somewhat satisfied, neither satisfied nor dissatisfied, somewhat dissatisfied, or very dissatisfied. (2) The number of times someone has shoplifted in her or his life. (3) The number of times someone has voted in a public election measured as 0-1 times, 2-3 times, or 4 or more times. (4) The type of attomey a criminal defendant has attrial, measured as privately retained or publicly funded.

Solution :

Nominal variable

A nominal variable is defined as a variable which is used to  which are being measured.

An ordinal variable is the one in which the order matters, but the difference between any two orders does not matter.

In interval ratio variable is defined as the variable where the difference between any two values is meaningful.

The level of measurement  for each of the following are :

1) Variables that are categorized in categories so that it is ordinal data.

2) Data scaled with the two categories her or his,  so it is a nominal data.

3) Number of votes categorized in the intervals so it is Interval type data.

4) nominal data.

options a,b,c are the right answer.

step-by-step explanation:

a linear parent function is always represented as y = x

if we write this function in the form of y=mx+c

⇒

or  

now if we plot a graph we will find these characteristics:

1) y intercept of the graph is zero so its a straight line passing through origin.

2) as we can see in both the forms of function written, values of x and y may be either positive or negative for the positive slope means points on the graph are either in first quadrant or in third one.

3) it's slope is one.
