Writing coursework, particularly a conclusion for GCSE Statistics coursework, can be a challenging

task that requires a combination of analytical skills, data interpretation, and effective communication.
Crafting a conclusion involves summarizing key findings, demonstrating an understanding of
statistical concepts, and drawing insightful conclusions from the data.

The difficulty lies in presenting the information coherently and convincingly. Students often face
challenges in organizing their thoughts, ensuring the conclusion aligns with the objectives of the
coursework, and effectively communicating the significance of their findings. Additionally, it
requires a keen eye for detail to avoid errors in data interpretation and analysis.

For those finding it challenging or time-consuming, seeking assistance can be a viable option.
Platforms like ⇒ HelpWriting.net ⇔ offer professional writing services that can provide tailored
support. However, it's essential to approach such services with caution, ensuring they uphold ethical
standards and produce original, high-quality content.

from teachers, peers, or academic resources first. However, if you decide to use external help, be sure
to choose a reputable service that prioritizes academic integrity and produces custom-written content
to aid your learning process. Remember, using external assistance should complement your efforts,
not replace them, and should be done with integrity and responsibility.
From this, I will plot a cumulative frequency graph. Null hypothesis: There is a relationship between
the ability to estimate the length of a straight line and mathematical ability. It shows that more people
underestimated than overestimated. I got the results gain by taking away the KS2 results average
with the KS3. On the other hand, the Daily Mirror will have large headlines and small area of text.
Also I can use specific makes of cars to compare how quickly the car price decreases. Their
qualifications and expertise allow them quickly and sharply grasp the requirements and develop
consistent papers. One this graph I plotted lines of best fit from a mean point of each stratum. (So
one for Year 7 girls, one for Year 7 boys, one for Year 11 girls and one for Year 11 boys.). It will also
achieve greater precision than, for example, random sampling; therefore because it provides greater
precision, a stratified sample often requires a smaller sample, which will avert wasting unnecessary
time. The Daily Mirror in turn also focuses more on celebrity gossip, entertainment, and crime. It is
plain to see that they are trying to capture all possible audiences by offering a generous mix of
everything, with a style that most people would be able to comprehend fully. I think doing my
investigation on computer would give a better pictorial view than by hand. Not to be biased I am
going to stratify my data to keep the boys and girls in proportion. I only have 52 results for girls as
the High School wouldn't allow the experiment to be carried out in lessons. With this, I expect there
to be more extreme data from year 7 than year 11. The medians lie at the same point- 1.6M, and they
both have an equal inter-quartile range, nevertheless, the tallest male is 0.5M taller than the tallest
female. This is the information on the histogram which I have taken from Autograph and put into
word. I shall now investigate further into different variables that affect the cars. This number is the
page that I will measure the area of, i.e if the number is 7, every 7 th page would be measured in
terms of area devoted to the topics of interest. This wide spread has occurred later in the boys (Year
8) than the girls (Year 7) This follows most scientific theories that state boys puberty developments
happen at an older age to that of girls. The diagrams would maintain a clear understanding and show
what is happening to the cars and what people prefer according to their engine size. So this means
that the Daily Mirror consistently has large headlines and large amount of text. The data I am using is
the same as in question 2 and 4. I did not think that they would beat the girls in Key Stage 3 marks.
This will tell me the relationship between the headline and text. If you need an undergraduate-level
essay for college, you don’t need to overpay for a Ph.D. degree-holding expert. I have been given
instructions to collect data for my GCSE statistics cours. I will compare my results and findings with
any published secondary tables or graphs available. This would also give me a general idea of what
type of newspaper I’m dealing with. The histogram shows that most of the data is near 0 and roughly
fits a normal distribution.
Null hypothesis: There is a relationship between the ability to estimate the length of a straight line
and mathematical ability. This will tell me the total word count for the articles. All these values are
added together and the result is divided by the total frequency. I assume that in years 7-9 girls will
generally be taller than boys- this is because girls tend to grow faster than boys during the early
stages of development. Sampling I need to sample to get the results for Mathematical ability. This
would be another factor of why boys catch up by the time they are in year 9. Following this I
opened it in a excel document and began to order. As I did not collect the statistics myself, I am left
unaware as to whether or not they are reliable. This gave me the number of words to select as my
initial set of words. (e.g. if the article contained seventeen paragraphs, I selected seventeen words in
total, taking the fifth word from each paragraph). On the other hand, the results from the Spearman’s
coefficient of rank correlation disprove my hypothesis. I decided against it because I thought that it
would be hard to obtain the data. All pupils will have used a ruler before so they will know the
approximate length of 30cm and 15cm lines. These entries were numbered and then using a
calculator and the random button the sample names were collected. e.g Set 1: RND ? 26 gave
13.346. This converts to 14th name using the rounding up method. Also, random sampling will be
better as it will be easier to avoid bias, because with stratified you may end up selecting all the pupils
who have improved the most even if you don’t really mean to. The data, however, does not include
any external factors which may influence the results of the investigation, for example the dietary
habits or quantity of exercise that the students do. The diagrams would maintain a clear
understanding and show what is happening to the cars and what people prefer according to their
engine size. Spearman’s rank is helpful as we can use it when the data is not jointly normally
distributed and rank order correlation provides a very quick and easy to use method of modelling
correlation between probability distributions. I took the next word from each of those paragraphs. To
do this I will calculate the mean, median, mode and range of each set of data and use these values to
calculate the inter-quartile range and the standard deviation to show the spread of the data. The
overall hypothesis, that will be summarised at the end is that the content and style of a newspaper
compliment each other in a way that attracts a specific audience to read their newspaper. I would
provide my entire hypothesis to get more accurate results and also to include my prediction. I
wanted to see if they are right if not I will be able to prove them wrong. I will be using the SAT’s
levels as the main source for my investigation. I am lead to believe this because the Daily Mirror is
aimed at people who are busy and do not have the time to read a large amount of text. I took the
next word from each of those paragraphs. However I did not include adverts within the sample
because I do not consider them as articles. It is evident from all the graphs included that females are,
in effect, generally shorter and weigh less than males. The correlation coefficient is -0.3979. This
shows a low degree of negative correlation between the two variables. I thought this would be a
good number because it reflects the whole year group. For simple random sampling, I could have
given every record an assigned number, and then used a random number generator to select them,
ignoring any repeated numbers.
I am going to get a sample of thirty articles, which will be stratified by category. I will use
continuous qualitative data for height and weight because they can both be measured and can be any
value within a given range. Furthermore both graphs have a positive correlation, meaning there are a
large number of low values. I expect to see strong positive correlation here as I believe that if you do
well in Key Stage Two you do well in Key Stage Three. The advantage of the inter-quartile range
over the standard deviation, however, is that the inter-quartile range includes half of the points
regardless of the shape of the distribution. They also have worked a lot with rulers so they know the
approximate length of 30cm and 15cm lines. It was easy to get the Boys Results, I just asked my
maths teacher and he got them for me. Set 5 boys did not do the same exam so these boys will not be
sampled. You should introduce your write essay of the ours greatest she good works for them. So
this means that the Daily Mirror consistently has large headlines and large amount of text. That year
seven girls will be smaller than year eight girls 3. Alternative hypothesis: There is no relationship
between the ability to estimate the length of a straight line and mathematical ability. Perhaps this is
because my sample size was simply not large enough or there is in fact no correlation between height
and weight. Year 10 in the Stamford Endowed schools is an accurate choice as every person has
have the same education and experience and the data is very easy to collect. This could be sales man,
who drives from one state to another. I predict that on average boys in year 9 will be taller than girls
in year 9, because on average, males are taller than females. Check out the bonuses in your account
and use them to save even more. All these articles are pretty much individual to the respective papers
and therefore the style of writing on vocabulary used will be extremely different and also therefore
be representative of each papers individual style. I will then using these words acquires the mean, and
the standard deviation. Furthermore the Daily Mail could not have achieved a 40% higher average
than the Daily Mirror within a day. Systematic sampling is a regular pattern which is used to choose
the sample. However the girls have a higher frequency of weights. The height and weight of a person
is affected by their age and gender. This may belong to a person who does not like driving a lot. I
have placed these ages in a table with the students IQ. I will be using the SAT’s levels as the main
source for my investigation. I have used the random data selector provided by the site to select some
sample data (about 2500 records) to use and transferred this to a spreadsheet. This suggests to me
that like the girls in Year 7, the boys in Year 8 are split generally into those who have come into
puberty and those who have not. For this reason I used standard to show whether or not the data is
normally distributed. First I will start with the make for Ford and the other makes to get more
information.
Null hypothesis: Practice improves the estimate of a non-straight line. The diagrams would maintain
a clear understanding and show what is happening to the cars and what people prefer according to
their engine size. This wide spread has occurred later in the boys (Year 8) than the girls (Year 7) This
follows most scientific theories that state boys puberty developments happen at an older age to that
of girls. I will use continuous qualitative data for height and weight because they can both be
measured and can be any value within a given range. My fourth hypothesis was correct because there
was a positive correlation. The Standard Deviation will show how accurate my mean is. A stratified
sample is needed as I am comparing boys with girls and so need the correct proportions pf each year
group. It will also achieve greater precision than, for example, random sampling; therefore because it
provides greater precision, a stratified sample often requires a smaller sample, which will avert
wasting unnecessary time. I would provide tally charts for the most popular cars. I think that this is
because our school is an all Boys school, if it was a mixed school I do not think that the boys would
have made a better improvement than the girls. On the other hand I expect to see the less able pupils’
box and whisker plot to be lower on my scale and a lot more spread out as they will have not
improved much according to my hypothesis. Although there maybe some problems and anomalies
with this sample because someone maybe away, someone maybe blind or have eye problems and
someone might be handicapped. Every person has used the same facilities, books and material and
the teachers have all been taught using the same course. I assumed that in years 7-9 girls will
generally be taller than boys- due to the fact girls tend to grow faster than boys during the early
stages of development. Once the histograms have been achieved you are then able to make polygons
which are needed for this investigation. The median is roughly -40 and 50% of the results are
between -80 and 60. That is the reason why boys by this time have a better average than the girls.
GCSE Math's Statistics Coursework Introduction: I have been given a databas. This will be done so
I can use it to clearly show the proportion of different genres. Below are the tables containing the
required data I need for my hypotheses. On the other hand for the Daily Mail the Y intercept is
44.4705cm?, which means if you were to interpolate a value of zero the area of text would be
44.4705cm?. This is also unrealistic because without a header there is no story. Scatter graphs show
the correlation between data sets and the measure of strength between them. It was easy to get the
Boys Results, I just asked my maths teacher and he got them for me. I will then use the mean and
standard deviation to make a normal distribution diagram. That year eight boys will weigh less year
nine boys 8. Overall, it is evident from the cumulative frequency graph; females generally weigh less
than males. Question 2 Does the estimation of a non straight line improve after practice. There are
more girls in the year than 52 but only 52 girls could do the experiment as the high wouldn’t allow
the test to be carried out in lesson time so the investigation was carried out at lunch so some girls
couldn’t go or didn’t want to go. I feel my hypothesis that a broadsheet newspaper is more difficult
to read than a tabloid newspaper has been proven by my results. This is because it uses more shorter
words than the tabloid.
