Question

sample data
the data was generated from a random sample of 40 year 10 basketball students who provided information on their shooting accuracy and practice time.

\shorter\ (under 175cm)
shooting accuracy (decimal)
practice time (hrs/week)

\taller\ (175cm and over)
shooting accuracy (decimal)
practice time (hrs/week)

Identify the dataset structure

The image displays a sample dataset titled "Sample Data" from a "Year 10 Mathematics 2026 Investigation #2 - Statistics". The data represents a random sample of 40 Year 10 basketball students.

Analyze the variables

The sample is divided into two distinct groups based on height:

1. "Shorter" (Under 175cm): Contains 20 students (numbered 1 to 20).
2. "Taller" (175cm and over): Contains 20 students (numbered 1 to 20).

For each student in both groups, two variables are recorded:

• Shooting Accuracy (decimal): Represents the proportion of successful shots.
• Practice Time (hrs/week): Represents the weekly hours spent practicing.

Summarize the data purpose

This bivariate dataset is structured to investigate potential relationships between:

• Practice time and shooting accuracy (correlation analysis).
• Height category ("Shorter" vs. "Taller") and shooting accuracy or practice time (comparative analysis).

<answer>
The provided image contains a bivariate dataset for 40 Year 10 basketball students, divided equally into two height groups:

1. "Shorter" (Under 175cm): 20 students
2. "Taller" (175cm and over): 20 students

For each student, the dataset records:

• Shooting Accuracy (expressed as a decimal)
• Practice Time (measured in hours per week)

This data is typically used to analyze the correlation between practice hours and shooting performance, or to compare the two height groups.
