A _______________ is a diagram used to compare the relative sizes of different parts of a whole.
To fill: The blank space in the provided statement, “A______ is a diagram used to compare the relative sizes of different parts of a whole”. By the use of provided list.
Answer to Problem 1LSR
Solution:
A pie chart is a diagram used to compare the relative sizes of different parts of a whole.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The provided list is below:
Explanation:
Consider the provided statement.
As it is known that the pie chart is a circle which is divided into a number of slices where each slice gives information about a particular data.
For example, the given pie chart representation of marks obtained by a student in different subjects- English, Hindi, Mathematics, Science and Social Science in an examination.
Therefore, the blank in the provided statement can be filled with the word pie chart.

Some bronchial cancer patients had the following survival times (in days) after receiving a certain treatment: 20, 37, 63, 64, 72, 81, 138, 151, 155, 166, 166, 223, 245, 246, 450, 459. (The second instance of “166” is not a mistake.) Do these numbers suggest that the average survival time, for all bronchial cancer patients who receive that treatment, is significantly different from 200 days?

For Step 6 of the six-step process that was taught in this class, what would be the final conclusion? A. The P-value is low so we cannot conclude that the average survival time is significantly different from 200 days. B. The P-value is not very low so our conclusion is that the average survival time is significantly different from 200 days. C. The P-value is not very low…arrow_forward
