Shiloh is doing a survey to find the time her classmates spend at the beach. She asks the following question: Which student spends the most time at the beach?

Part A: Describe the data you would expect her to collect from this question. (5 points)

Part B: Explain whether this is a statistical question. If this is not a statistical question, then modify the question to make it statistical. (5 points)

The data she should get should be the amount of time her classmates spend at the beach.  This is a statistical question because it has to do with the statistics of time spent at the beach per classmate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: The data you would want her to collect would be how much time each student spends at the beach. Considering from there she will be able to find out who spends the most time.

Part B: This is not a statistical question. Statistical questions will have multiply answers or a variant. The way you can make it statistical is by changing it to a general question. How much time does every student spend at the beach? Or  How much time does every single student spend at the beach separately. Overall that is how you can change it to a statistical question.

answer:

a(n) - a(n-1) -3

discussion:

this ones a bit interesting. given a(n) = 5 - 3n consider this:

a(n-1) = 5 - 3(n-1)

          = (5 - 3n) + 3             => but a(n) = 5 - 3n, the first term

          = a(n)   + 3                 => subtract 3 from both sides

a(n-1) -3 = a(n)  

or

a(n) - a(n-1) -3
