The correct answer is: B. variable f1 is an example of ordinal variable.<\/p>\n
A nominal variable is a variable that categorizes data into mutually exclusive groups. The categories do not have a natural order. For example, gender is a nominal variable with the categories “male” and “female”.<\/p>\n
An ordinal variable is a variable that categorizes data into mutually exclusive groups that have a natural order. For example, student grade is an ordinal variable with the categories “A”, “B”, “C”, and “D”.<\/p>\n
In the case of student grade, the categories “A”, “B”, “C”, and “D” have a natural order. A grade of “A” is better than a grade of “B”, which is better than a grade of “C”, which is better than a grade of “D”. Therefore, variable f1 is an example of an ordinal variable.<\/p>\n
Option C is incorrect because variable f1 does belong to one of the mentioned categories. It is an ordinal variable.<\/p>\n
Option D is incorrect because variable f1 does not belong to both the nominal and ordinal categories. It is only an ordinal variable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
