Answer to Question 1

Data are simply facts or recorded measures of certain phenomena (things or events). Information is data formatted (structured) to support decision making or define the relationship between two facts. Business intelligence is the subset of data and information that actually has some explanatory power enabling effective decisions to be made. So there is more data than information and business intelligence.

Answer to Question 2

D
Dependent variables are phenomena one seeks to explain, while independent variables are used to explain dependent variables.
