To find the average number of cases admitted in the hospital, we can use the formula:
Average = (Sum of all cases admitted) / (Number of data points)
Let’s calculate the sum of all cases admitted: Sum = 5 + 7 + 9 + 22 + 11 = 54
Now, there are 5 data points, so the average is: Average = 54/5 = 10.8
So, the average number of cases admitted in the hospital is 10.8 per day.
Now, let’s create a line graph to represent the data:

Difference between Ethics and Morals

Ethics

Morals

The guiding principles to decide what is good or bad.

The beliefs dictated by our society.

These are values that a person themselves chooses for their life.
Examples

is it good to speak the truth in all situations?
is it good to be loyal under all circumstances?
is it necessary to always be generous?

Morals are not fixed and can be different for different societies.
Examples

Always speak the truth
Always be loyal
Always be generous

Problem scoping in AI involves identifying issues through the 4Ws Problem Canvas:-
- Who? Identifying stakeholders affected, like financial experts and regulatory bodies in a fraud detection project.
- What? Detailing the problem with evidence from sources like historical data in fraud detection.
- Where? Understanding where the problem is prominent, like specific industries prone to fraud.
- Why? Addressing reasons for solving the problem, such as safeguarding financial assets and societal benefits.
