Question

Macy wanted to track how many times she would jump a minute using a jump rope. She tracks her jumps per minute and discovered that she could do about 40 jumps a minute.
Step 1: Create a table to represent this data, up to five minutes.
6a) Is this data conditional or random? Why? Explain.
6b) What is the slope of the line?
6c) Write an equation for this line:

Answer 1

There is no right answer to this question. The way I read it, just create a table that has Minutes and Jumps.

The minutes range from 1 to 5 and the number of jumps are random number around 40.

Some number of jumps might be higher than 40 and some might be less than 40, but they will average about 40.

Answer 2

Can you define "conditional data?" I tutored Data Analysis (basic statistics) for years without having heard of that particular term.

what I do see is that your data stems from observation, which is not the same thing as stemming from theory.

If Macy's sister performed the same experiment, she might find she could do a different number of jumps per minute. And thus her experimental rate would be different from 40 jumps per minute.

Answer 3

I figured out the slope is 40, and the equation is y=40x. but so not know about the conditional or random. It does not explain
