- 3. describe how similar or varied the set of observed values are for a particular variable.
- 5. a count that involves integers — only a limited number of values is possible.
- 7. Variables whose values result from counting or measuring something.
- 8. a set of points plotted on a horizontal and vertical axes.
- 10. a graphical display of data using bars of different heights.
- 14. data that can be measured on an infinite scale.
- 15. the set of outputs of the function achieves when it is applied to its whole set of outputs.
- 18. a mathematical variable that is independent of the other variables in an expression or function and whose value determines one or more of the values of the other variables.
- 21. the point on a line segment or an arc that is equidistant, when measured along the line or the arc, from both endpoints.
