Anyone please
To identify a statistical question, we need to determine if the question is asking for numerical data that can be observed or measured.
Looking at the provided options:
A) "How many professional sport leagues are there?" is asking for a specific count of professional sport leagues.
B) "Where do the professional sport leagues play?" is asking for the location of the professional sport leagues, which is not a numerical value.
C) "How many hours of professional training took place over the weekend?" is asking for a specific count of hours of professional training.
D) "How many hours do you spend each week training for a sports league?" is asking for a specific count of hours spent training.
Out of the four options, only options A and C are statistical questions since they are asking for numerical data. Therefore, the correct answer is either A or C.
The statistical question in this list is D: "How many hours do you spend each week training for a sports league?"
answer a) is one data answer, but if you asked 100 people, you would likely get 40 answers different
answer b) the simple answer is at stadiums, but if you want locations, you can get many answers.
answer c) If you asked 100 folks, you would get 100 different answers.
answer d) again, 100 folks will give 100 different answers.
All are ripe for statistical analysis: Is this a trick question?
