Qualitative
|
data deals with categories
|
|
Quantitative
|
data deals with numeric values (quantities)
|
|
Chebyshev's theory
|
(applies to any datd set regardless of shape etc.)
At least 3/4 of the data will fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean At least 8/9 of the data will fall within 3 standard deviations of the mean Generally for any number k greater than 1 at least (1-1k2) of the datd will fall within k standard deviations of the mean |
|
Empirical Rule
|
(only if have a symmetic, mound shapes distribution)
approximately 68% of the data will fall within 1 standard deviation approximately 95% of the data will fall within 2 standard deviations approximately 99.7% (esentially all) of the data will fall within 3 standard deviations |
|
Union
|
is the event that occurs if either A or B or both occure on a single performance of the experiment
|
|
Intersection
|
is the event that occurs if both A and B occur on a single perfomance of the experiment
|
|
Compliment
|
is merely the opposite of the event
|
|
Compliment rule
|
P(A) + P(A)C =1
since the probabbility of an event and the probability of its compliment are the only two possibilities they will always add up to one. |
|
Additive rule
|
P(AUB)= P(A)+ P(B) -(PIA)
|
|
mutually exculsive
|
if AIB contains no smaple points that is A and B cannot occur at the same time. An event and its compliment will always be mutually exclusive
|
|
discrete random variable
|
one where there is a finite (and there for countable) number of distinct possible values. (0,1,2,3)
|
|
continuous random variable
|
one where for any two values of that variable there are an infinte number of other possible values in between.
|
|
Binomial
|
the experiement consists of n identical trials
there are only two possible outcomes on each trial the probability of S remains the same form trial to trial the trials are independent the binomial randomm variable x is the number of sucesses in n trials |
|
Multiplicative rul
|
PIA= P(A)P(B/A)= P(B)P(A/B)
