TU Truth in Advertising & Statistics in Your Life Discussion

 

I’m working on a business question and need a sample draft to help me understand better.

Second discussion question:

STATISTICS IN YOUR LIFE)  An MBA course is most successful when scholars can implement it’s contents in their present situations and envision using the information in the future.

Select two management tasks or decisions that would be informed by the use of statistics. Describe the decisions or tasks, and state what statistics you believe would be most useful and why. Discuss what data would be needed to provide the necessary statistics and why it is appropriate. Provide appropriate citations at the end of the post, as necessary
