Determine the level of measurement of the variable below. Nation of origin Choose the correct answer below. A. Interval B. Ratio C. Nominal D. Ordinal

Option C) Nominal

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Variable:

Nation of origin

Nominal and ordinal:

Categorical variables can further be divided as nominal and ordinal. Nominal variable are simple name variable and no numeric value is used to express such variable. Ordinal variable are the variable where position plays an important role but again numerical value is not used to express them.

Ratio and interval:

Numerical data can be divided as ratio and interval. Ratio is the data that have true zero value. For interval, absolute zero have no meaning.

Thus, the given variable that is name of origin is a categorical variable.

It is a nominal variable as position plays no role in this.

Thus, the correct answer is

Option C) Nominal
