Explanation
★The correct match is nominal with ethnicity, ordinal with satisfaction level, interval with year of death and ratio with weight, that is I-c, II-a, III-d, IV-b.
★A nominal variable names unordered categories, like ethnicity.
★An ordinal variable ranks in order, like satisfaction level.
★An interval variable has equal gaps but no true zero, like the year of death.
★A ratio variable has a true zero, like weight.
★So the correct pairing is I-c, II-a, III-d, IV-b.
