graphs, and regression analysis. As discussed in the lesson, the value of statistics lies in the ability to analyze data more effectively for the purpose of improving decision making.

Unit 2 answers: 1. Outline the theory, concept or idea that formed the basis of your fieldwork investigation (aim): The fieldwork investigation took place upon the Glenderaterra Beck River and our aim was to measure and interpret how fluvial channel characteristics changed downstream at our stratified sampling sites in comparison to the Bradshaw Model. This model suggests that as you progress downstream, the discharge increases as erosion widens and deepens the channel. Velocity is also said

Introduction In this paper the authors will analyze the Whitner AutoPlex data using descriptive statistics. Team D will use these statistics to calculate the measures of central tendency, dispersion, and skew the data. Team D will also display the descriptive data using graphic and tabular techniques. A frequency distribution tablet and a histogram style graph will illustrate the Whitner AutoPlex data set in measuring terms. Based on skew value and histogram, a discussion of the best measures
