Question

Which of the following examples represents a discrete data constraint with viable solutions

Number of test passed
Average score on a test
Average weight of all is in newborns in a hospital
Distance between points

Answer 1

Number of test passed is an example of discrete data constraint with viable solutions.

The number of test passed can only take on whole number values (e.g. 0, 1, 2, 3, ...), and each value represents a distinct and countable outcome. It is discrete because it cannot take on fractional or continuous values.

For example, if a student takes 5 tests, the possible values for the number of tests passed could be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. There are clear and distinct options for the number of tests that can be passed, making it a discrete data constraint.
