Mathematical induction is traditionally defined as a mathematical method, or a type of a mathematical proof, which is used when the necessity to prove that in the following expression: “(fg)’ = f’g + fg’”, “for every integer n >= 1, the derivative of f(x) = xn is f'(x) = nxn...
The Most Important Thermodynamics Law There are four laws of thermodynamics in physics, each describing unique aspects of heat transfer. The laws include the postulation of the principle of thermodynamic equilibrium, the law of conservation of energy, heat conversion, and zero temperature. However, in my opinion, one of the most...
Introduction The practical value of statistical analysis lies in the ability to make data-driven decisions that reduce the effects of bias and subjectivity of conclusions. In this paper, statistical analysis is used to analyze differences in child mortality data between two regions. Since the data do not fulfill the criteria...
Introduction Statistics have an essential place in modern-day healthcare, directly affecting its most significant components. In particular, the correct application of statistics contributes to the quality and safety of care and promotes beneficial health practices. Furthermore, statistics can point to more effective leadership practices, improving the care process. This paper...
As part of this assignment, the Assistant Chief of the local fire department is examining the potential problem of gender barriers that may exist in employee promotions. To do so, data from fifty employees who applied for promotions were collected and formed into the crosstab shown below. At first glance,...
Decision-making skill is one of the most important aspects of every company’s leadership as it allows to make the right choices and minimize risks in connected parts of the business. According to Klien (2017), statistics is closely related to decision-making as specific numbers and exact data can make the production...
Since their discovery, neutron stars have represented one of the most enchanting mystery for scientists. A recent article by Adam Mann suggests that the discovery made lately concerning the nature of neutron stars may reinvent the entire perspective on the subject matter. Though discovering the entire nature of the core...
Introduction One of the fundamental beginnings of mathematics is the possibility of theoretical generalization and the search for analogies between concepts, which allows various parts of mathematical disciplines to be linked together. It is necessary to understand that the development of mathematics has taken millennia and has always gone on...
Introduction There is a wide range of methodologies that can be applied to different studies. Nevertheless, one of the best options to realize the numerous factors that underlie a social issue is the utilization of phenomenology. The approach implies an attempt to deal with all the inner experiences unprobed in...
Null and alternative hypotheses are commonly used for testing in such applications as SPSS, which proposes different formulas for data calculation. The difference in the results over time does not always show the difference in the actual data statistics. Understanding the influencers on both types of hypotheses is important to...
Methodology and data analysis are some of the most crucial processes that constitute a research paper. In the research done by Xiao and Shailer (2022, p.2) to investigate stakeholders’ perception of the factors affecting credibility of the sustainability report, methodology and data analysis were used accordingly to achieve the objective...
It is hard to disagree that space is expanding for humans at an unimaginable rate. New constellations and galaxies are discovered every year, and better photos of other planets become available. This may mean that humanity is on the verge of great discoveries, and the conquest of space is getting...
The foundational demonstrations over two decades ago, quantum teleportation, has become the fascinating implications of quantum physics and has been widely researched. The book Ground-to-satellite quantum teleportation by Ren et al., is one of the research projects that focuses on this concept (2017). Its ties to classical physics and its...

Hypotheses testing in daily life can promote a better understanding of various events and people that an individual deals with daily. For instance, hypothesis testing may reveal how people around the individual treat them. This paper aims to describe the testing of a hypothesis stating that only close people, including...
The purpose of qualitative research is to evaluate a phenomenon and identify the factors that influence it significantly. It often begins with a limited understanding of the situation and the expected outcomes, discovering them through analysis of information collected over the course of the study. As such, qualitative research objectives...
The Four Dimensions of Statistical Reasoning The four dimensions are an interrogative cycle, types of thinking, investigative cycle, as well as dispositions. They contain specific and generic statistical thinking habits that operate simultaneously within the thinker. Five thinking types that are marked fundamental are consideration of variation, transnumeration, need for...
Many mathematicians influenced the fields of statistics and probability; nonetheless, the brightest example is Leonhard Euler. Notably, Leonhard Euler was a Swiss mathematician who contributed remarkably to statistics and probability. Essentially, Euler was born in Switzerland; nevertheless, he worked mainly in Berlin, Germany, and Saint Petersburg, Russia. Thanks to Leonhard...
The study of science implies not only the presence of talent, but first of all, it requires aspiration and a strong desire. Without these characteristics, it will be complicated, and not many will be able to engage in this field. However, there are people with disabilities who could prevent them...
Action Research is a methodology that simultaneously involves the researcher and the participants in a cyclical process. Thanks to the theoretical knowledge of the former and the practical experience of the participants, a system with an established working mechanism are realized. There are traditionally three stages in this system: planning,...
The 1961 Milgram experiment can be considered a non-experimental design. It is essential to first differentiate between an experimental and non-experimental research designs. In the former, a controlled factor is subjected to some type of treatment and then compared with another factor that was kept constant. It also entails allocating...
Introduction The paper aims to compare four ways of data collection, such as survey research, which involves a process of asking questions and analyzing responses, field research, which focuses on making observations, and secondary analysis of existing data, and triangulation, which refers to the combination of the methods. The author...
