Burkina Faso, a landlocked country in West Africa, has the lowest adult literacy rate in the world (25.3%). Over the past 15 years, the government has focused heavily on improving access to education across the country. Between 2008 and 2015, the primary school completion rate rose from 40% to 60%, and the high school completion rate doubled over the same period from 15% to 30%. Despite these encouraging statistics, children in rural areas, especially girls, continue to have limited access to quality education. You put together a survey to collect information on the following variables and you are ready to analyze: Gender Age at last birthday Distance from school Level of education (Primary, Secondary, Post-Secondary) Discuss what measure of central tendency is the most appropriate for each variable making sure to explain why.

Total DVD and Blu-ray disc sales in 2009 were $8.72 billion. For the purposes of this problem, you will combine DVD and Blue-ray disk sales into one category of DVD sales. A study by In-Stat predicted that "physical disc sales will decline by $4.7 billion by 2014," and that "streaming, on the other hand, should grow from its current $2.2 billion to $6.3 billion over the same time period (2009–2014). d. Write an equation that represents the linear model for streaming videos. Let S = the total sales of streaming videos in billions of dollars, and t = the number of years after 2009. e. In what year do the models predict streaming video sales to exceed DVD sales?
In February 2021, the Chicago Tribune reported:“The overdose epidemic that has ravaged Chicago has not spared the nearby suburbs, some of which have death rates comparable to anything seen in the city, according to a report released this week by the Cook County Department of Public Health. ZIP codes in the towns of Worth, Broadview, Maywood, and Forest Park, areas that “have substantially lower median household incomes and higher poverty rates,” have been especially hard-hit, the report said.”In the article, they claimed that lower incomes were associated with higher overdose death rates and that overdose death rates are increasing over time. The data you have been analyzing wasn’t focused on Chicago, obviously. But do your results support the general gist of the statistical argument being made in this Tribune excerpt? Please address:• Do overdose death rates appear to be associated with per capita income (use scatterplot)?• Do overdose death rates appear to be increasing over time…
An fruit grower knows from previous experience and careful data analysis that if the fruit on a specific kind of tree is harvested at this time of year, each tree will yield, on average, 127 pounds, and will sell for $4.6 per pound. However, for each additional week the harvest is delayed (up to a point), the yield per tree will increase by 2.1 pounds, while the price per pound will decrease by $0.07. A) How many weeks should the grower wait before harvesting the apples in order to maximize the sales revenue per tree? (Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a week.) Answer: __________ (rounded to the nearest tenth) B) Use your answer in part A to find the actual maximum revenue that can be expected. (Round your answer to the nearest dollar.) Answer: ____________ dollars (rounded to the nearest dollar)
