2.Online and in-person shoppers are to be compared on their relative incomes. Income data represent data of which scale? Explain your reasoning.
3.If shoppers are also ranked from the most to the least frequent shoppers, those rankings represent data of which scale? Explain your reasoning.
4.Shoppers are asked to complete a customer satisfaction survey. In response to each question on the survey, the shoppers circle one of five answers: strongly agree, agree, neutral, disagree, or strongly disagree. Their responses are data of which scale? Explain your reasoning.
5.What measure(s) of central tendency will be most informative for each of the above data? Justify why each measure is most informative.
