Consider the following experiment. You are one of 100 people enlisted to take part in a study to determine the percent of nurses in America with an R.N. (registered nurse) degree. You ask nurses if they have an R.N. degree. The nurses answer โyesโ or โno.โ You then calculate the percentage of nurses with an R.N. degree. You give that percentage to your supervisor. a. What part of the experiment will yield discrete data? b. What part of the experiment will yield continuous data
