D. Answer the following questions.
1. What does statistical investigation mean? Give an example.
A statistical investigation means looking at data to find answers to questions or problems.
___________________________________________________________________________
It involves collecting information, organizing it, and using math to understand the patterns
___________________________________________________________________________
or trends in that information.
___________________________________________________________________________
For example: How many pets do kids in your class have?
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________

2. Write about the difference between different kinds of data.

Kind of data Difference Examples

Finite number of possible values. Number of students in a class

Discrete Number of goals in a soccer
Can be counted
match

Can be measured, not counted Height of a person

Continuous Infinite numbers of possible values within Temperature

a range (e.g., 3.5, 3.555, 3.55555…).

Eye color (blue, green, brown)
Can be grouped
Categorical It is often made up of words gender (male, female).

5. Give two advantages of storing data in a spreadsheet rather than on paper.
It is easier to analyse and organise the data;
___________________________________________________________________________
it is easier to perform calculations on the data;
___________________________________________________________________________
data is less likely to get lost or damaged;
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________

6. Give two advantages of using an online form instead of a paper form to collect data.
It is easier/quicker to send to respondents and gather data;
___________________________________________________________________________
results are stored automatically;
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
The spreadsheet is generated automatically so there is less chance of errors when entering
data into a spreadsheet
___________________________________________________________________________

7. What is the difference between database and spreadsheet?

Databases are used to store data in an organized manner. Spreadsheets are best for
___________________________________________________________________________
working with numbers and doing calculations, and they cannot store much more than 1 million
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
rows of data. most database software programs have no problem storing 10 million rows of data.
___________________________________________________________________________
Databases are good for storing pieces of data of different types that are related in some ways.
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________

8. What is the use of data loggers?

A data logger is a device that can read and record data from world automatically and
___________________________________________________________________________
continuously. some data loggers can be set up to take data readings all day and night at
___________________________________________________________________________
regular times.
___________________________________________________________________________

9. What is the tool in a spreadsheet called that helps limit the kind of data a cell can have, to
avoid errors?
Validation
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________

10. What do you mean by restricting cells?

Spreadsheets limits the kind of data you can add to a cell. This is called data validation and
___________________________________________________________________________
helps you to enter data correctly.

________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________

2. What is the difference between bar chart and line chart?

Bar charts are usually used when you want to compare different categories of data.
___________________________________________________________________________
A line graph is useful for representing continuous data because it shows the changes between
___________________________________________________________________________
the data points.
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________

3. Why wouldn’t a bar chart be a useful way of representing blood sugar data?
___________________________________________________________________________
Bar charts are useful for comparing values. Diabetic people do not need to know how many of each
___________________________________________________________________________
value has been recorded, they just need to know whether their readings are changing, and if so by
___________________________________________________________________________
how much and when.
___________________________________________________________________________

7|P a g e
 Highest: roleplay; lowest: adventure.

d) Does this chart tell us which game is the most or least popular overall? Why/why not?
Not really – it just compares votes up to votes down. You could work it out from the chart,
________________________________________________________________________
but it is not easy to see at a glance which game is most/least popular
5. Why wouldn’t a line graph be a useful way of representing your family’s favourite meals?
Data on favorite meals will not change over a period of time, so there would be no data points
___________________________________________________________________________
to plot on a line graph. A bar chart is more useful for comparing values.
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________

6. Look at the chart and answer the following questions.

a) Why do some of the bars go down instead of up?

Their scores are negative numbers because they got more votes down than up.
_____________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________
b) Why is there no bar for bottles or racing games?
These games had the same number of up votes and down votes so their popularity score is 0.
_____________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________
c) Which game type is the most popular?
Puzzle
_____________________________________________________________________
d) Which type is the least popular?
Roleplay
_____________________________________________________________________

7. Arun has collected temperature data. He has used a data logger to record the classroom
temperature every two hours for a week as shown in given graph.

a) Why is a bar chart not the best choice for this data?
It is continuous data. There are a lot of bars and some overlap each other, so it
________________________________________________________________________
looks messy and it is not easy to see what is going on. Another problem is that the
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
chart does not have a legend, so there is no way to know what the colors represent.

b) What kind of chart would be better?

A line chart.
________________________________________________________________________
8. What is cell reference?
A cell reference is the way we refer to a specific cell in a spreadsheet. A cell reference is a code
___________________________________________________________________________
made of a letter and a number. the letter refers to the column and the number refers to the row.
___________________________________________________________________________
Each cell in a spreadsheet has a unique cell reference.
