Chapter 2.3, Problem 1QQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The one that always involves with inexact number has to be chosen from the given options.
Concept Introduction:
Numbers are classified into two, namely the exact numbers and the inexact numbers. Exact numbers appear exactly with no uncertainty and occur during counting, with definite numbers and with no decimal number. While inexact numbers has some uncertainty and occurs during any kind of measurement that is made. Measurements made with numerical are impossible to be so exact. Hence numerical measurements are always inexact.

Suppose a researcher is investigating the measurement ability of a new device intended to read the freezing point of a chemical compound. The substance used in the investigation has a known freezing point of -24 degrees Celsius. The researcher conducted a series of 10 sample measurements of the freezing point, and the results are represented below. What can we say about the device with regards to its precision, and potential bias?
