Temperature in Fahrenheit or celcius. In order to be interval, there must be equal distances between equal increments... That is one degree difference must always mean the same thing but zero cannot mean absence. Temperature in Kelvin is ratio because zero means the absence of heat... But not so in other temperature metrics. This is important because 80 is not twice as hot as 40 in most metrics but in Kelvin it is.

Nothing, but you can speak about the lifetime of a variable: the time-interval in which the variable exists.


How do you find interval estimate?

There are different types of interval estimates. Given a rounded value for some measure, the interval estimate, based on rounding, is the interval from the minimum value that would be rounded up to the given value to the maximum value that would be rounded down to the given value. For example, given 4.5 with rounding to the tenths, the minimum of the interval is 4.45 and the maximum is 4.55 so that the interval estimate is (4.45, 4.55). Statistical interval estimates for a random variable (RV) are probabilistic. For example, given some probability measure (for example 95% or 5% significance level), the interval estimate for a random variable is any interval such that the probability of the true value being inside that interval is 95%. Often the interval is symmetrical about the mean value of the RV that is being estimated, but this need not be the case - particularly if the RV is near an extreme of the distribution.

A variable measured at the interval or ratio level can have more than one arithmetic mean.


Is the set of all possible outcomes always finite?

No. If the variable is continuous, for example, height or mass of something, or time interval, then the set of possible outcomes is infinite.
