Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is B). Discrete.

Step-by-step explanation:

Joshua is taking whole numbers of steps for our purposes. He will never take a half step, or a quarter step, or a .15 step. Since, we are counting the steps, we know that the data is discrete.

A helpful way to remember is that anything counting-related is discrete.

Anything that is from a model, like population is continuous.
