**Understanding Types of Variables****Question:**"The weight of your pet is a ______."**Answer Options:**1. Discrete Variable2. Continuous Variable### Explanation:In this screenshot, a question is presented asking the user to identify the type of variable that best describes the weight of their pet. The user is given two choices to select from in a dropdown menu:- **Discrete Variable**: A discrete variable is one that has specific, individual values. These are countable values such as the number of pets (e.g., 1 pet, 2 pets).- **Continuous Variable**: A continuous variable can take on any value within a given range. These values are measurable rather than countable, such as the weight of a pet (e.g., 4.5 kg, 5.2 kg).**To identify the correct answer, consider that the weight of a pet can be measured to any level of precision (e.g., in kilograms, grams) and is therefore a continuous variable.**Users are required to make their selection from the dropdown menu to answer the question correctly.

The mtcars data set contains data on 32 cars from the 1974 Motor Trend US magazine. The data set has 11 variables that measure different aspects of the cars, such as miles per gallon (mpg), horsepower (hp), weight (wt), and number of cylinders (cyl). The data set can be used to study the relationship between fuel consumption and car performance, as well as other factors that affect the efficiency and design of the cars. What is the maximum and minimum number of the range regarding the explanatory variable for which the regression model can make valid predictions?

When coastal power stations take in large quantities of cooling water, it is inevitable that a number of fish are drawn in with the water. Various methods have been designed to screen out the fish. A particular article examined intake fish catch at an English power plant and several other variables thought to affect fish intake. y = fish intake (number of fish)x1 = water temperature (°C)x2 = number of pumps runningx3 = sea state (values 0, 1, 2, or 3)x4 = speed (knots) Part of the data given in the article were used to obtain the estimated regression equation(based on n = 26). SSRegr = 1486.6 and SSResid = 2230.1 were also calculated. (a) What proportion of observed variation in fish intake can be explained by the model relationship?
