- Decide if you think the statement is reasonable and accurate in all cases. Provide an explanation.arrow_forwardpls help The box plots show the average gas mileage, in miles per gallon, of the cars sold at a dealership in June and in December. Which inference can be made about the cars? The type of cars sold in June typically gets better gas mileage. The type of cars sold in December typically gets better gas mileage. The types of cars sold in the two months typically get about the same gas mileage. The types of cars sold in the two months typically get better gas mileage than those sold in other months.arrow_forward4arrow_forward
- Grace recorded the forecasts that a local meteorologist made for one month, as well as the actual weather. The data she collected is shown in the table below. Grace concludes that the meteorologist is always better at predicting the weather when it does not rain. Which of these statements about Grace’s conclusion is correct? Explain your reasoningarrow_forwardFunding for many schools comes from taxes based on assessed values of local properties. People's homes are assessed higher if they have extra features such as paved driveways and fireplaces. Assessment records in a certain school district indicate that 43% of the homes have paved driveways and 8% have fireplaces. The Addition Rule might suggest, then, that 51% of residences have a paved driveway or a fireplace. What is wrong with that reasoning? Choose the correct answer below. OA. The reasoning is correct. Thus, 51% of homes have either a paved driveway or a fireplace. OB. The sum of the probabilities of the two given events does not equal 1, so this is not a legitimate probability assignment. OC. A home may have a paved driveway and a fireplace. The events are not disjoint, so the Addition Rule does not apply. OD. If a home has a paved driveway or a fireplace, it can influence another homeowner to add a paved driveway or a fireplace. The events are not independent, so the Addition…arrow_forwardPlzzz explain c) and d) with explaination. Tyarrow_forward

Explain why the type of beverage sold is an example of a categorical variable. Choose the correct answer below OA Type of beverage sold is a categorical variable because the values of the variable arise from a measuring process OB. Type of beverage sold is a categorical variable because the values of the variable can only be placed into categories OC. Type of beverage sold is a categorical variable because the values of the variable arise from a counting process OD. Type of beverage sold is a categorical variable because the values of the variable represent quanteles b. Explain why the type of beverage is a nominal-scaled variable Choose the correct answer below OA Type of beverage sold is a nominal-scaled variable because there are no rankings for the different values of the vanable OB Type of beverage sold is a nominal-scaled variable because the…arrow_forwardhelparrow_forward

Its members gathered data on the prices (in pesos) and quantities (in number of pieces) sold from previous fund raising activities. Predict the price for 2500 cupcakes. Prices and Quantities data given below. Please answer like the format example on the 2nd picture.arrow_forwardUse the Sierra College Elementary Statistics Student Survey to estimate the percentage of Sierra College Elementary Statistics students that work, on average, at least 20 hours in a typical week. Express the estimate both symbolically and verbally. (It’s the last one, Q9) P.S. this is not excel, this normal statistics math. I’m just showing you an image of the table so I don’t have to write each every students’ hours of working. Someone on another problem, just used excel and found the answers. I actually have to show my work, and I’m struggling with this problem.arrow_forward
