GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS: Read and follow the instructions carefully.

TASK A
World’s Busiest Airports A study of the world’s busiest airports was conducted by Airports Council
International. Describe three variables that one could use to determine which airports are the busiest. What
units would one use to measure these variables? Are these variables categorical, discrete, or continuous?

TASK B

Read the following on attendance and grades, and answer the questions.

A study conducted at Pedro Sevilla College revealed that students who attended class 95 to 100% of the
time usually received an A in the class. Students who attended class 80 to 90% of the time usually received
a B or C in the class. Students who attended class less than 80% of the time usually received a D or an F or
eventually withdrew from the class.

Based on this information, attendance and grades are related. The more you attend class, the more likely it
is you will receive a higher grade. If you improve your attendance, your grades will probably improve. Many
factors affect your grade in a course. One factor that you have considerable control over is attendance. You
can increase your opportunities for learning by attending class more often.
