Working fewer hours could also irritate your boss, since you are making him either hire a new worker
Data Analysis The scientific question investigated in this experiment was, “Which household object, when catapulted at a 45 degree angle, will travel the farthest?” The hypothesis in this experiment was, “If four household objects are catapulted at a 45 degree angle, then the standard white dice will travel the farthest.” The independent variable in this experiment is changing the object launched. The dependent variable in this experiment is the change in distance traveled. The control variables
A Comparison of Broadsheet Newspapers with Tabloid Newspapers Investigation 1 Hypothesis 1 "Broadsheet newspapers have a longer average word length than tabloid newspapers" My theory is that broadsheet newspapers use a more complex style of language. In effect I think this will result in a longer average word length in a broadsheet than in a tabloid newspaper. Both newspapers will have a large amount of short word included in the articles, however, this can not be avoided due

Investigating the Factors that Affect the Price of a Second Hand Car Introduction I am going to test which factors affect the price of a second hand car using a variety of different statistical techniques. From what I discover using these techniques I will conclude which factors are the most important. I will examine only cars within the reach of a normal family, i.e. not luxury cars. I will also exclude classic cars as these are unlikely to perform like normal second hand cars.
statistics is a set of disciplines for study quantitative information. Implied that several methods used to collect or process or interpret quantitative data from large amount of information, then finally generate a calculated number, for example average, mean, standard deviation…etc. All of these are the key reference for decision making or predicting consequences. Thus, it enables us to estimate the extent of our errors. Statistics was primely developed in 17th century. It was initially used in collecting

CLOCK: Being students of Electrical Engineering, clock plays a vital role in our digital world. By mentioning clock, I mean “digital clock signal” (clk). It is basically a voltage signal which is similar to a square wave that consists of two voltage levels: High (varies with circuit necessaries) and Low (0). It is represented as follows: Many electronic circuits don’t
Stephen J. Gould, a stubborn and reluctant statistician, was diagnosed with mesothelioma (a particularly serious kind of cancer). Despite the median mortality of eight months, he survived for the next 20 years and died of an unrelated illness. This resolution inspires many points of interest on the insufficient median and its fulfillment in frequency curves, the importance of graphs, and Stephen Gould’s remission. In Stephen Gould’s story the median is not the message. Instead, it should have been
