Answer:

A. This variable is a discrete numerical variable that is ratio scaled

b..This variable is a categorical variable that is nominal scaled

C. This variable is a continuous numerical variable that is interval scaled

D. This variable is a discrete numerical variable that is ratio scaled

E.This variable is a continuous numerical variable that is ratio scaled

Explanation:

This is because we know that

Interval scale has the variable that has ordering that is its is scaled with respect to who comes first and has e measure of the distance between different categories

While

Ratio scale is similar to interval scaled but with a reference equal same as zero.
