The total participants is 154.

Name a continuous variable that differed between males and females; provide evidence with estimates.  

Name a nominal variable that differed between males and females; provide evidence with estimates.

Explanation / Answer

Given that the total number of participants are 154.

77% of the participants are males.

It means that 100% - 77% = 23% of the participants are females.

a) In males, how many (number and percent) went to the Minnesota study center?

Number of males went to the Minnesota study center is,

77% * 154

= (77 / 100) * 154

= 118.58 which approximately equal to 119.

b) Name a continuous variable that differed between males and females; provide evidence with estimates.

If a variable can take on any value between its minimum value and its maximum value, it is called a continuous variable.

The continous variable X is percentage of the male or female.

c) Nominal variables have two or more categories without having any kind of natural order.

Here gender is a nominal variable that differed between males and females.
