1. **State the problem:** Determine whether each question is a statistical question.
2. **Definition:** A statistical question is one where the answer involves more than one data value, meaning it requires data collection from multiple sources or individuals.
3. **Analyze each situation:**
- (a) "What is the number of sports that you play?" asked to multiple students. Since it involves multiple students, it is a statistical question.
- (b) "How much money did you save last month?" asked to one girl only. Since it involves only one data value, it is not a statistical question.
- (c) "What is the distance from your house to school?" asked to one student only. Single data value, not statistical.
- (d) "How many words did you type yesterday?" asked to seventy students. Multiple data values, so statistical.
- (e) "How many books did you read last month?" asked to one classmate only. Single data value, not statistical.
4. **Final answers:**
(a) Yes
(b) No
(c) No
(d) Yes
(e) No
This follows the rule that statistical questions require multiple data points to analyze variability or patterns.
