WGU C784 - Applied Healthcare Statistics Objective
Assessment #1
Given the following set of numbers: 3.3, -2.3, -16, 25. What D. +/- 5
are the square roots of the whole number?
A. +/- 2.3
B. +/- 3.3
C. +/- 4
D. +/- 5
Composite Number A number with more factors that just one and itself.
Equivalent Fractions Different fractions that represent the same value.
X-Axis The horizontal line that passes through the origin on a coordinate plane.
Qualitative Data Non-numeric information based on some quality or characteristic.
No Correlation There is no apparent overall trend between the two variables. If the
correlation coefficient is 0, this only rules out a linear trend. There could be a
non-linear or curvilinear trend.
Extrapolate Using information from a data set to make predictions about data outside of the
original set.
Event An outcome, or set of outcomes, whose chance of occurrence can be
represented with a probability.
Given the following set of numbers: 10, 2.5, -4, -4.5, 5. What D. 15
is the sum when adding together only the whole
numbers?
A. 5.5
B. 11
C. 12.5
D. 15
Operation In Mathematics, an operation is a procedure which generates a new value from
one or more operands, or Mathematical values.
Conditional Proportion A proportion where one part of the proportion is a variable, or unknown quantity.
Coefficients A number by which a number is multiplied. This number is written in front of the
variable(s).
Mean Average, calculated by adding a series of elements in a data set together and
dividing by the total number in the series.
Outlier An observation point that is statistically distant from the other observations in the
dataset.
, Regression Line The line of best fit to show the relationship between variables, the one that
minimizes distance from each data point to the line.
