What is the difference between a linear measure and an area measure? Provide an example of each.

A linear measure is a measure of length or distance, such as measuring the length of a room. An area measure is a measure of the size of a surface, such as measuring the area of a floor. For example, measuring the length of a room might be 10 meters, while measuring the area of the floor might be 50 square meters.

A bivariate scatterplot is used to display the relationship between two _______ variables.
