What are importance of statistics?
Statistics is a very effective tool, in which you look at past data from surveys or census', or simply recorded data over a period of time. It is important because using stats you can view past data to help make business decisions, or decisions within any workplace. You can do a statistical test to find out if a new idea or business decision should be considered or rejected. They say "history repeats itself", well by analysing historical data you can find out where past mistakes were made and how to avoid repeating them.
What would be more beneficial to a future English major hoping to be an author taking ap calculus or ap statistics senior year of high school?
6 of one, half doze of another. I would look up what college you want to go to, and see what the basic liberal arts requirements are so you can test out of them (if they require calc, take calc but if they require stats, take stats). I recomend calc though, because even if you do poorly, its the basis of all the math you will do in college, and the basis of other science courses and it will give you a 'jumpstart' on the course in college.
What is the difference between math and discrete math?
In discrete math, solution are distinct and separated. For example we look at how many ways something can happen,and that number is a natural number. We look at how many ways to color a graph and the answers are distinct. When we look at solutions in many other areas of math, the answers are not distinct, we may have an answer like Pi, or square root of 2.In stats, we can look at the temperature as a variable and let is take on any value, not just integers. In calculus, which is not discrete, the answers are rarely distinct natural numbers.

How is a venn diagram used?
A Venn diagram can be used to compare and contrast two or more different items. It consists of two (or more) overlapping circles - so there is a small region of overlap between the circles. Generally, they can be used to illustrate the similarities and differences between two or more items. For instance, a Venn diagram could be used to compare lamps and flashlights. Both produce light (that information would go in the middle of the Venn diagram, where the circles overlap), but the lamp must be plugged in, while the flashlight runs on battery power (those pieces of information would go in the outsides of the circle - differences). Venn diagrams can also be used for probability, logic, stats, etc. By putting one situation or characteristic in each circle, you can determine the probability of one or both of the scenarios occurring. In this use of the Venn diagram, the region of overlap represents the time when both of the situations occur. For example, one could compare the number of students who have brown hair with the number of students who are more than 5 feet tall. Students with both of these characteristics would be placed in the middle of the Venn diagram (the overlap), while students with just one of these characteristics would fall in the outer edges of the circles.
