Is number of errors per pupil in a spelling test is discrete variable or continuous?
Discrete.
Is the number of employees of a company a discrete quantitative variable?
Yes. You can't have a fraction of an employee. Thus, the range of values is not continuous, thus the variable is discrete.
What is a discrete variable?
A discrete variable is one that cannot take on all values within the limits of the variable.
Is a discrete variable normally described as a word?
No.A discrete variable is a variable that can not assume all possible values within a given range.For example, if I were to conduct a survey on the number of children people had, then my answers would be numbers such as 0, 1, 2 and so forth (i.e. they would be whole numbers). This particular variable could not have a value in between these (a non integer value), such as 1.345, as this makes no sense in this context. This makes the variable discrete.
Is asthma a discrete or continuous variable?
discrete
Is number of people a discrete variable?

Is number of children a continuous variable or categorical variable?

Is number of errors per pupil in a spelling test is discrete variable or continuous?
Discrete.
Is no of common colds a discrete or continuous variable?
It is a discrete variable, as number of colds experienced by individuals would be one time, two times or so on. So, it is a finite category proving it a discrete variable.
A random variable that can assume only a finite number of values is referred to as?
That would be a discrete variable; or, in your case, it would probably be called a discrete random variable.
What type of variable is the number of robberies in your city?
discrete
Is the number of statistics students now reading a book discrete or continuous?
The random variable is discrete
Number of notes in a song is discrete variable?
number of notes in a song is discrete variables or continuous variables
Is the number of employees of a company a discrete quantitative variable?
Yes. You can't have a fraction of an employee. Thus, the range of values is not continuous, thus the variable is discrete.
The number of people added to a group is what kind of variable?
It is called a discrete variable because it represent an integer (whole number, counting number), which comes from a subset of all numbers. Except statistically, people have to be added to groups in "whole" people.
