How are statistics applied in real life?
Statistics are used behind all the medical study.
Statistic help doctors keep track of where the baby should be in his/her mental development. Physician’s also use statistics to examine the effectiveness of treatments.
Statistics are very important for observation, analysis, and mathematical prediction models.
