Statistics are supposed to make something easier to understand but when used in a misleading fashion can trick the casual observer into believing something other than what the data shows. That is, a misuse of statistics occurs when a statistical argument asserts a falsehood. In some cases, the misuse may be accidental. In others, it is purposeful and for the gain of the perpetrator. When the statistical reason involved is false or misapplied, this constitutes a <span>statistical fallacy</span>.

The false statistics trap can be quite damaging to the quest for knowledge. For example, in medical science, correcting a falsehood may take decades and cost lives.

Misuses can be easy to fall into. Professional scientists, even mathematicians and professional statisticians, can be fooled by even some simple methods, even if they are careful to check everything. Scientists have been known to fool themselves with statistics due to lack of knowledge of probability theory and lack of standardization of their tests.

marysya [2.9K]
Cortes showed up, the Aztecs welcomed him with open arms. They apparently thought he was a god. They gave him all the gold he could ever want, but he decided that that wasn't good enough and so he set up a meeting with Montezuma (their leader). He then captured Montezuma. The Aztecs realized their mistake and beat the Spanish back. 

<span>After a while, the Spanish enlisted the aid of oppressed tribes living under Aztec rule, and when they made a move on the Empire, they found most of the Aztec warriors dead or dying of diseases that THEY brought over from Europe. They then conquered everyone.</span>

o

here is a summary of that.

The Treaty of Versailles was the most important of the peace treaties that brought World War I to an end. The Treaty ended the state of war between Germany and the Allied Powers. It was signed on 28 June 1919 in the Palace of Versailles, exactly five years after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, which led to the war. The other Central Powers on the German side signed separate treaties.[i] Although the armistice, signed on 11 November 1918, ended the actual fighting, it took six months of Allied negotiations at the Paris Peace Conference to conclude the peace treaty. The treaty was registered by the Secretariat of the League of Nations on 21 October 1919. pls mark brainliest
