Answer 19

had some trouble with these they kind of mean the same thing

Answer 20

discrete means there is a finite amount (ie a fixed number)

you use discrete for counting things like number of people, number of cars, etc

Answer 21

continuous means that you can cut any number in half, thirds, quarters, etc

this is useful for things like height, weight, time, etc
