1. **State the problem:** We need to identify the individuals, variables, and data corresponding to the variables from the given high-definition television setups A through E. Then, determine whether each variable is qualitative, continuous, or discrete. 2. **Identify the individuals:** Individuals are the objects or subjects being studied. Here, the individuals are the high-definition television setups labeled A through E. 3. **Identify the variables and their data:** Variables are characteristics or properties that can vary among individuals. - Setup: A, B, C, D, E (labels for each television setup) - Size (in): 47, 58, 54, 55, 49 (screen size in inches) - Screen Type: Plasma, Projection, Projection, Projection, Plasma - Channels Available: 298, 120, 425, 269, 290 4. **Determine the correct choice for individuals:** The correct answer is B: The high-definition television setups A through E. 5. **Determine the correct choice for variables and data:** The correct answer is A: Setup (A, B, C, D, E), size (47, 58, 54, 55, 49), screen type (Plasma, Projection, Projection, Projection, Plasma), and number of channels available (298, 120, 425, 269, 290). 6. **Classify each variable type:** - Size is a continuous variable because it can take any value within a range (screen size measured in inches). - Screen type is a qualitative (categorical) variable because it describes categories or types (Plasma or Projection). - Number of channels available is a discrete variable because it counts the number of channels, which can only be whole numbers. **Final answers:** - Individuals: High-definition television setups A through E. - Variables and data: Setup (A, B, C, D, E), size (47, 58, 54, 55, 49), screen type (Plasma, Projection, Projection, Projection, Plasma), number of channels available (298, 120, 425, 269, 290). - Variable types: Size is continuous, screen type is qualitative, number of channels available is discrete.
