hypertension lifestyle factors and willingness to engage in self-care scores there are a total of 14 participants. The levels of central tendency consist of the mean of 5.5 which is the average score, the median of 5.5 which is the exact middle number and the mode of 7 which is the most frequent occurring score (Salkind, 2013). There was an average deviation from the sample mean of 2.35, therefore it can be said that 95% of cases would fall between -2 standard deviation (SD) and +2SD (Loiselle…

measure used to describe the mean, median, and mode of a particular set of data while measure of distribution shows the skewness, kurtosis, and develops a hypothesis about a particular set of data. The reason I selected these two measures is that they will help analyze the data of A-Carp Corporation accurately. B. Identify the Categories of Data and their Relationship with the Tools of Data. The data in the case comprises of mean, standard error, median, mode, standard deviation, variance,…

I chose to research the box and whisker plot for my final project, because I remember when I learned it in high school that I enjoyed it more than most math things. I could also understand how it worked better, so I thought that I could explain it better in my paper and in the presentation than the other topics. The box and whisker plot is used to show the shape of the distribution, it's central value, and it's variability. Before Barry Manilow's 74th birthday, he started to wonder, what are the…

In the control group, 31 are married (86.1%), 1 is separated/divorced (2.8%) and 3 are single (8.3%). The mode is married in each group as that is the value that appears most often. The frequency is 51 (out of 67 total subjects) a percentage of 82.1% for both groups together. 7. Could a median be determined for the education data? If so, what would the…

For the measure of central tendency of a home, I believe this would fall under the nominal variable and be a mode tendency. Walker (2009) states that the mode is the most frequently occurring value in a distribution. By showing on the table that a house is that most frequent that is lived in, there is no median or mean that can be determined as the numbers are skewed. On the next table for arrest, I believe that a true zero can be identified as many people may have never been arrested as…

Gay marriage is such an arguementive and aggressive topic in today’s society. Even though it is becoming legal many people still have their own opinions on this topic that will not change. In the article I read it talks about children who are adopted into families with homosexual parents. The author is not talking to one particular group of people. He is more or less likely trying to bring attention to all groups of people both young and old. The article discusses the worries that these parents…

Before dissecting the larger cycle found within A Plague of Doves, establishing how the cycle functions within the novel on a smaller scale becomes necessary. This stems from Shamengwa’s violin story illustrating how a simple object can span generations and time. This particular violin Shamengwa “…treated [with] the reverence we accord our drums, which are considered living beings and require from us food, water, shelter, and love (197). It is this same violin that is stolen in the night, with…

The Battle with Nature E.F. Schumacher once said that: “Man talks of a battle with nature, forgetting that if he won the battle, he would find himself on the losing side.” Humans need nature for survival and should, therefore, accept and respect all of nature’s power. "To Build a Fire" takes place in Yukon, on an extremely cold and grey winter day. An unnamed man travels alone, except with an unwilling dog, to the camp at Henderson Creek with his friends,…

Students should study because they want to, not to be forced to. Its wrong to lure students into studying by using cash as it gives them an idea that money can somewhat “control the world” everything does revolve around money, Which is a sad truth that they don’t understand that money does control the world and them. Although this policy encourages the wrong things. Students may get so caught up in focusing on making more money that they assumed getting good grades is purely for the money and…

Naturally, a story told in first-person point of view is flawed. However, the author Ken Kesey picks Chief Bromden, the least suspecting of all characters, to narrate his book One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. As Bromden tells the story from his perspective, he is able to gain credibility from the audience because he faithfully recounts not only the misadventures and mayhem in the ward but also the story of his personal breakthrough. In the beginning, Bromden tells us that he is under that…
