Question: There are four different levels of measurement. Select a business decision that you might make based on the measurement of a specific thing. For example, you are running a hospital but the air conditioning fails and the temperature climbs to over 80 degrees Fahrenheit. You need to move patients to other buildings. That is an interval level of measurement, and we know as a result that a 1 degree difference has a specific effect on our body’s ability to function.

Your measurement should be one that someone else in class has not already selected. What type of measurement is it, and what does that mean as far as how it can be used?
