Answer: Discrete Quantitative

Ordinal Qualitative tends to be relatively "agreeable" observations (ie small, medium large [size])
Nominal Qualitative tends to be subjective observations (ie taste/color)

Continuous Quantitative includes data that could have an infinite number of values (ie height of children)--usually involves decimals
Discrete Quantitative includes data that can easily be measure and has a set number of values (ie number of people per household)--usually involves integers

Answer 3

oh never mind you're right, thank you!

Answer 4

It's continuous, but we rarely think of it that way. Light bulbs come in only a few sizes. A scientific meter would be very different.
