CNSL 503 MODULE 1 TEST QUESTIONS AND ALL
ANSWERS CORRECT
Statistics - ANSWER is the branch of mathematics that enables us to categorize,
condense, characterize, and analyze various types of data.
Answer (Data (datum)) Both small and huge data sets
Why are statistics significant? ANSWER 1) makes it possible to describe and
convey data clearly and concisely.
2) Clear and intelligible ways for researchers to share their work with the public
and each other
3) Permit data inferences, especially when gathering information from every
member of a group is impractical.
4) Give us the resources we need to make decisions daily.
Variable: ANSWER Measurable traits with a range of values
Answer is a qualitative variable. Non-numerical terms, employing labels or
categories (faith, race, eye color, career)
Answer is a quantitative variable. Numerical measurements (height, weight,
heart rate, test score)
An ANSWER quantitative variable that is arranged according to whole numbers
(0,1,2,3...) is called a discrete variable (number of people, children, animals).
Answer is an independent variable. Variable that is manipulated in an
experiment
Answer is the dependent variable. The variable used to measure any influence
of observation
ANSWER is the control variable. One variable that doesn't change during the
experiment
