The results for a survey of 120 students who were selected randomly are listed below.
60 students have a cell phone plan with company X
36 students have a cell phone plan with company Y
24 students do not have a cell phone
The total population of students was 380. Based on the data, what is the best approximation for the total number of students who do not have a cell phone plan.
A) 76
B) 114
C) 190
D) 163
A) 76
The height of players on Team A and Team B(in inches) are shown:
Team A: 76, 68, 73, 65, 60, 63, 69, 76
Team B: 63, 73, 64, 70, 70, 67, 75, 62
Which answer choice does not show the comparison between the heights on Team A and Team B?
A) The mode of Team A < The mode of Team B
B) The mean of Team B < The mean of Team A
C) The mode of Team B < The mean of Team A
D) The mean of Team A > The mean of Team B
A) The mode of Team A < The mode of Team B
This is the study of data: it can be collected, analyzed, summarized and presented.
Two math classes took the same test. The scores of 8 randomly selected students from each class are listed below.
Class A: 40, 63, 90, 100, 75, 13, 28, 78
Class B: 95, 58, 60, 63, 90, 83, 100, 93
Based on the averages(Rounded to the nearest whole) of the scores for each class, what inference can you make about the mean test scores of all the students in Class A compared to all the mean test scores of the students in Class B?
The mean test scores in Class A are much lower than the mean test scores in Class B. This is because in Class B there were more higher values than in Class A and also in Class A there are as low as a 13 and 28 that will drop the mean value in a big way.
