Answer:

The melting pot theory of ethnic relations, which sees American identity as centered upon the acculturation or assimilation and the intermarriage of white immigrant groups, has been analyzed by the emerging academic field of whiteness studies. This discipline examines the "social construction of whiteness" and highlights the changing ways in which whiteness has been normative to American national identity from the 17th to the 20th century.

A city police officer using radar checked the speed of 26 cars as they were travelling down a city street and the data is given

pychu [463]

Answer: The distribution of the data set is positively skewed.

<u>Explanation: </u>

In order to see whether the given data set is symmetric, positively skewed or negatively skewed, we will find the mean, median and mode of the given data set.

For symmetric distribution, $Mean = Median=Mode$

For positively skewed distribution, $Mean > Median>Mode$

For negatively skewed distribution, $Mean < Median$

The mean of the given data set is given below:

$Mean = \frac{27+23+22+38+43+24+25+23+22+54+31+30+29+48+27+25+29+28+26+33+25+21+23+34+20+23}{26}$

$=\frac{753}{26}$

$=28.96$

Now, the Median is:

To find the median we need to sort the data in ascending order as:

$20,21,22,22,23,23,23,23,24,25,25,25,26,27,27,28,29,29,30,31,33,34,38,43,48,54$

$Median=\left(\frac{N+1}{2} \right)^{th} item$

$=\left(\frac{26+1}{2}\right)^{th} item$

$=13.5^{th} item$

$=26+0.5 \times (27-26)$

$=26.5$

$\therefore Median = 26.5$

The mode is the most frequently occurring observation. Therefore the mode is:

$Mode=23$

Since the $Mean >Median>Mode$ , therefore the distribution of the given data set is positively skewed.

The table below shows the surface area y, in square feet, of a shrinking lake in x days:

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Based on the data, the most likely correlation coefficient would be -1.
The slope between 20 and 30 days is -1, and it represents the change in the surface area of the lake per day.
The data represents correlation, not causation.

Since the data would form a perfectly straight line through the points, the correlation coefficient would be -1 for a perfect decreasing fit.
To find the slope, find the change in the surface area between those days, the change in the days, and write it as surface area/days: 80-90=-10; 30-20=10; -10/10=-1
This is not causation because there could be lurking variables we cannot see.
