The reason the labels for MSRP, MPG_City, and MPG_Highway are not displaying in the PROC PRINT report is that the LABEL option was not used in the PROC PRINT statement. In SAS, even if you have label statements in your DATA step, you must also specify the LABEL option in the PROC PRINT statement for those labels to be used in the report output. Thus, the correct answer is Option A: You must use the LABEL option on the PROC PRINT statement.

The code creates two datasets, preteen and teen, based on the age variable from the sashelp.class dataset. The if statement checks each observation, and if the age is less than 13, the observation is written to the preteen dataset; otherwise, the observation is written to the teen dataset.

From the provided frequency table, we can see that there are 7 observations with ages less than 13 (2 for age 11 and 5 for age 12), so the preteen dataset will have 7 observations. Since the sashelp.class dataset has a total of 19 observations, the remaining 12 observations (19 total - 7 preteen = 12 teen) will be written to the teen dataset.

Thus, the answer is: B. preteen will have 7 observations and teen will have 12 observations.

To create SAS date values, the correct syntax involves specifying the date in a string format followed by the letter 'd'. This indicates to SAS that the string should be interpreted as a date value. Therefore, the correct answers are:

• A. "10/19/2019"d - This format directly specifies the month, day, and year, enclosed in quotes followed by 'd', which SAS correctly interprets as a date value.
• C. "19Oct2019"d - This format uses a three-letter abbreviation for the month combined with the day and year, also followed by 'd'. This is another valid way to specify a date in SAS.

Option B, mdy(10, 19, 2019), is incorrect because while the MDY function does create date values from month, day, and year components, the function itself should be used within a DATA step or another context where SAS functions are evaluated, and it doesn't directly create a date literal in the same way as options A and C.

Option D, mdy(19, Oct, 2019), is syntactically incorrect because the MDY function expects numeric arguments for the month, day, and year, and "Oct" as a literal month name is not a valid numeric argument.
