List - I
List - II
(a) Variable
(i) A quantitative characteristic of an elementry unit measured on atleast an interval scale and has value with in fixed finite interval
(b) Discrete variable
(ii) Any portion drawn from a population
(c) Continuous Variable
(iii) A quantitative characteristic of an elementry unit that may vary from unit-to- unit
(d) Sample
(iv) A variable whose values are restricted to integer values only

  1. (a)-(i), (b)-(ii), (c)-(iii), (d)-(iv)

  2. (a)-(iv), (b)-(iii), (c)-(ii), (d)-(i)

  3. (a)-(i), (b)-(iii), (c)-(iv), (d)-(ii)

  4. (a)-(iii), (b)-(iv), (c)-(i), (d)-(ii)
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Variable (a) matches (iii) - it's a quantitative characteristic that varies from unit to unit. Discrete variable (b) matches (iv) - restricted to integer values only. Continuous variable (c) matches (i) - has values within a fixed finite interval on at least interval scale. Sample (d) matches (ii) - any portion drawn from a population. Option D has all correct pairings.
