)Frank is surveying shoppers about their use of the new food court in a mall. Which question in his survey is a statistical question? How many hours do you spend at the food court each month? Where is the food court located in the mall? How many restaurants are there in the food court? Who is the manager of the food court?

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

which question is likely to arise different answers if all the audience is taken from the same territory?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

Manager of the food court always one person.... restaurants in a food court always a constant number... location of food court in the mall always same.... hours spent in a food court....varies from person to person

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

which question is going to get different answers? Manager of the food court always one person.... restaurants in a food court always a constant number... location of food court in the mall always same.... hours spent in a food court....varies from person to person

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B its always the same

OpenStudy (qwertty123):

A statistical question is one that can be answered by collecting data and where there will be variability in that data. This is different from a question that anticipates a deterministic answer. For example, "How many minutes do 6th grade students typically spend on homework each week?" is a statistical question.

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

yeah thats why its wrong we want a thing which can be answered differently yet always is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok "DramaQueen"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D?

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

manager of a food court is always a same person

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

if you take a mall and then visited a food court how many different managers will be there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

one day he will retire

OpenStudy (qwertty123):

I am sorry! :( I will leave...

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

okay but in a lifespan of 50 years how many different managers will be there? Almost 10. But we actually take data where there can be 30-40 different possible answers

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

How many hours do you spend at the food court each month? Is the correct answer. No matter which specific location you will choose you will always get a high variation in the data.
