The graph does not distinct the three outfield positions and makes it seems to have much more OFs than the others, which makes the award seem unfair.

22% * 240 million = 52.8 million.
It’s inferential, because it’s a claim based on samples.

The proportion of 18-to-34-year-old respondents who are more likely to buy is 43%. The proportion of 35-to-44-year-old respondents who are more likely to buy is 61%.
The group of age 55+ are more likely to buy when made in America.
The group of age between 18 and 34.
There is a positive association between age and likelihood to buy, that is older people are more likely to buy when made in America.

percentage of ansering “always” = 2518/(125+324+552+1257+2518) = 52.72%
Percentage of ansering “never” or “Rarely” = (125+324)/(125+324+552+1257+2518) = 9.40%

It’s inferential because the Centers for Disease Control gets that claim by deducing from samples.

This statement is wrong because 1025 people are too few to represent all adult Americans.

The distribution is right skewed.
The reporter cannot conclude causal relationship from observation studies.

It should be bell-shaped, because comparied with the majority of households, there are very few households that earn a very large amount of money or very little money.
It should be left skewed, because the majority students taking SAT have high scores, and it’s very hard to have extremely low score in SAT exams.
It should be right skewed because very large families are rare.
14
It should be right skewed because the majority of people would not drink too much, and it’s impossible to have a negative number of drinks.
It should be bell-shaped, because students are usually at similar ages like 18, 19, 20, and 21.
It should be left skewed because older people are more likely to have hearing-aids.
It should be bell-shaped, because people who are extremely tall or extremely short are really rare.
