Percentage Research Papers Samples For Students

Introduction

In this paper, we will describe and discuss the application of statistics and probability theory to a real world problem. Our goal is to develop a research question, collect the appropriate data, and examine it by applying various statistical techniques. The topic of our research is body fat percentage.
Most people consider weight as the most important indicator in assessing the state of their figure. However, it is not always correct to determine the effectiveness of the diet or intensity of physical activity, focusing only on the body mass index. There is another measurement, which is much more important: ...

Analysis

The scatter plot provide a visual representation of the relationship between white pine and the percentage of Penn Sedge. It form the preliminary analysis. The scatter plot shows a negative relationship between the percentage of Penn Sedge and the number of white pine. However, the relationship seems to be weak since the trend line is almost horizontal. Besides, the data points are far away from the trend line.

Further analysis was conducted using regression analysis to test the hypothesis under consideration. The regression results as follows:

The adjusted R square is -0.004. This means that the percentage of Penn Sedge only explains 0.004 percent variation in the number of white pine and approximately 99 percent of the ...

Abstract

The positive effect of high intensity cardio exercise on body fat is well known. The paper looks into the greater impact on body composition due to those high-intensity exercises. Regular cardio is known to increase both aerobic and anaerobic fitness. Until recently, it was thought that low intensity exercises like walking or slow jogging burn more fat and high intensity workouts like running or high intensity aerobics are meant more for cardiovascular fitness and not for burning fat. However, now the evidence from scientific studies and controlled trials is showing that high intensity cardio may actually burn faster and ...

This is different from myths that have the idea of the universe to have originated from accounts of divine creation (Pollitzer, 34). In this concern, Evolution and Creationism are the popular anthropological theories of origin. This research aims at determining people’s opinion about the two accounts. With the utilization ...

Executive Summary

Saddle point approximation implementation and derivations have typically relied on tools such as Edgeworth expansions, exponential tilting, complex integration, Hermite polynomials, and other advanced notions. Saddle point approximations are very important tools used in obtaining accurate expressions for distribution functions and densities. It has been a very valuable tool in asymptotic analysis. Since the seminal paper by Daniels (1954), several techniques of accurate approximations that rely on the saddle point approximation on one way or another have been developed. The saddle point approximations, however, derived its concept from the game theory, which involved two suspected criminals under police investigations. The ...
