Activity is a great way to help students who meet less often

Activity is a great way to help students who meet less often place their classmates names with faces. Give a specific example of when it would be more prudent to use a frequency distribution instead of a raw score distribution? Explain why. Each student must complete two separate threads in response to the week\'s discussion. Each thread post must be 5 or more sentences Answer the week\'s thread question as it applies to the news video Respond to another student\'s posing related to the video Must identify which thread post you are responding toll Confirm or contradict an assertion made from a classmates post and explain why

Solution

A frequency distribution is more prudent to use than a raw score when the sample to be surveyed is extremely large.

Suppose a group of 25,000 people are asked about their daily expenditure on food and grocery, a raw score would result in 25,000 data points which are too difficult to handle.

However, if the sample expenditure is grouped,it becomes easier to handle and understand.

Also, since the grouping might reduce some level of accuracy due to generalization, it is wiser to use the method when a little loss of accuracy might not be a big problem.

Hope this helps.
