Hello Im having trouble understanding this problem could someone help me figure this out.
Thanks!
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) monitors airlines for safety and customer service. For each flight, the carrier must report the type of aircraft, number of passengers, whether or not the flight departed and arrived on schedule, and any mechanical problems. Identify the W’s, name the variables, specify whether a variable should be treated categorical or quantitative, and identify units in which it was measured.
