AIM
To investigate which battery , IC Fuel or Powerbat, last longer and if temperature or light effects them. Then choose which battery will be better for space travel.
INTRODUCTION
Statistics are used in everyday life. They are used for pricing items in a shop, working out how many people live in England or even working out which day the bin man will come to pick up your rubbish!
Frequency is the ratio of the number of times an event occurs in a series of trials
METHOD
I will use many different methods to determine which battery will last longer. I’ve decided to use random sampling to get a better and interesting spread of results. I will randomly sample the results using a computer program. I will then group the data to ensure I get the correct results as the original data will be harder to use compared to the grouped data which is easier to understand. I will then use various methods like line graphs, box and whisker graphs and helpful mathematical equations to help me.
