2. Most people become familiar with probability and
statistics through radios, television,newspapers and
magazines.For example,the following statements
were found in newspapers.
Eating 10 grams(g) of fiber a day reduce the risk
of heart attack by 14%
Thirty minutes (of exercise) two or three times
each week can raise HDLs 10 to 15%
Elementary statistics 3
Statistics is used to analyze the results of
surveys and as a tool in scientific research to
make decisions based on controlled
experiments.
Other uses of statistics include operations
research, quality control, estimation and
prediction.

3. What’s it?
Flower
as the basis of data analysis are concerned with two
basic types of problems
(1) summarizing, describing, and exploring the data
(2) using sampled data to infer the nature of the
process which produced the data
Elementary statistics 6
This problems is covered by inferential statistics.
This problems is covered by descriptive statistics
4. Statistics plays an important role in the
description of mass phenomena.
Organized and summarized for clear
presentation for ease of communications.
Data may come from studies of populations
or samples
It offers methods to summarize a collection
of data. These methods may be numerical or
graphical, both of which have their own
advantages and disadvantages.
Elementary statistics 7
Inferential statistics is used to draw
conclusions about a data set.
Usually this means drawing inferences about
a population from a sample either by
estimating some relationships or by testing
some hypothesis.
Elementary statistics 8
A Population is the
set of all possible
states of a random
variable. The size of
the population may
be either infinite or
finite.
A Sample is a subset
of the population; its
size is always finite.

Another important aspect of data analysis is the Data,
which can be of two different types:
qualitative data ex. Sex, color, smell, taste etc.
quantitative data ex. Height, weight, percentage etc.
Qualitative data does not contain quantitative
information.
Qualitative data can be classified into categories.

is based on the normal probability distribution and is used for
judging the significance of several statistical measures, particularly
the mean. (n>30)
z-test is generally used for comparing the mean of a sample to
some hypothesized mean for the population in case of large sample
12. Elementary statistics 23
T – test
is based on t-distribution and is considered an appropriate
test for judging the significance of a sample mean or for
judging the significance of difference between the means
of two samples in case of small sample(s) when population
variance is not known (in which case we use variance of
the sample as an estimate of the population variance).
t-test applies only in case of small sample(s)
when population variance is unknown.

F – test
is based on F-distribution and is used to compare the variance of
the two-independent samples. This test is also used in the context
of analysis of variance (ANOVA) for judging the significance of
more than two sample means at one and the same time.
Test statistic, F, is calculated and compared with its probable value
(to be seen in the F-ratio tables for different degrees of freedom for
greater and smaller variances at specified level of significance) for
accepting or rejecting the null hypothesis.
13. Anova tables:
for a 1-way anova with N observations and T treatments.
Source df SS MS F
treatment (T-1) SStrt =SStrt/(T-1) MStrt/MSerr
error…………by subtraction Sserr =SSerr/dferr
Total (N-1)
Finally, you (or the PC) consult tables or otherwise obtain a probability of
obtaining this F value given df for treatment and error.
1: Calculate N, Σx, Σx2 for the whole dataset.
2: Find the Correction factor
CF = (Σx * Σx) /N
3: Find the total Sum of Squares for the data
= Σ(xi
2) – CF
4: add up the totals for each treatment in turn (Xt.), then
calculate Treatment Sum of Squares
SStrt = Σt(Xt.*Xt.)/r - CF
where Xt. = sum of all values within treatment t, and r is
the number of observations that went into that total.
3: Draw up ANOVA table, getting error terms by subtraction.

Most people have difficulties in determining
whether a model is linear or non-linear.
Before discussing the issues of linear vs. non-
linear systems, let's have a short look at
some examples, displaying several types of
discrimination lines between two classes:
Elementary statistics 28
linear
Non-
linear
15. Here's the answer: linear models are linear
in the parameters which have to be
estimated, but not necessarily in the
independent variables.
This explains why the middle of the three
figures above shows a linear discrimination
line between the two classes, although the
line is not linear in the sense of a straight
line.
Elementary statistics 29
When calculating a regression model, we are
interested in a measure of the usefulness of
the model.
There are several ways to do this, one of
them being the coefficient of determination
(also sometimes called goodness of fit).
The concept behind this coefficient is to
calculate the reduction of the error of
prediction when the information provided by
the x values is included in the calculation.
Elementary statistics 30
16. Thus the coefficient of determination specifies
the amount of sample variation in y explained
by x.
For simple linear regression the coefficient of
determination is simply the square of the
correlation coefficient between Y and X .

population variance.
where

(n – 1) = degrees of freedom,
n being the number of items in the sample.
18. Elementary statistics 35
In quality control, there are situations when
we need to know whether a sample mean lies
within the confidence limits of the entire
population. This can be accomplished by
using t-distribution to determine confidence
limits for a population mean using a selected
probability.

We will use Excel function TINV( ) to determine the t-distribution.
19. Ten cans of sliced pineapple were removed at
random from a population of 1000 cans. The
drained weight of the contents were
measured as 410.5, 411.4, 410.4, 412.6,
411.9, 411.5,412.5, 411.4, 411.5, 410.1 g.
Determine the 95% confidence limits for the
entire population.
Elementary statistics 37
We will first calculate the average of the ten
data values using the AVERAGE() function.
Next we will determine the standard
deviation of the sample mean using STDEV()
function. Then we will use the following
expression to estimate the lower and upper
limits of population mean
Elementary statistics 38
20. Elementary statistics 39
Discussion:
The results show that the 95% confidence lower
and upper limits for the population mean are
410.78 and 411.98, respectively.
When a sample is taken from a large
population and analyzed for selected DATA,
statistical analysis is helpful in obtaining
estimates for the total population from
which the sample was obtained. In this

p value for Two-tail test is

we reject the null hypothesis.
p value for one tailed
test is .003 which is
less than .05 so we

t > tcritical(two-tail), so
the mean of sample #1
is significantly
different from the mean
of sample #2.
t > tcritical(one-tail), so the
mean of sample #1 is
significantly larger than
the mean of sample #2.
27. In hypothesis testing, it is sometimes not
possible to use the same judges for testing
different treatments. Although, it would be
desirable to use the same judges to evaluate
samples obtained from different treatments.
In such cases, we have a completely
randomized design. Using single-factor ANOVA
Elementary statistics 53
We can test to see whether the treatments had any influence on the
judges scores; in other words, does the mean of each treatment differ?

28. For each treatment, 5 samples were weighted by
5 times. Therefore, the design was completely
randomized. Calculate the F value to determine
whether the means of three treatments are
significantly different.
Elementary statistics 55
We will use a single factor analysis of variance
available in Excel. We will determine the F
value at probability of 0.95 .
These computations will allow us to determine
if the means between the three different
treatments are significantly different.

30. Elementary statistics 59
The results show that the F value is 0.889. The critical F
values are At the 5% level F = 3.885
This indicates that for the example problem the F value is lower than
the value at the 5% level but not at the 5% level. Thus, we can
say that no significant difference in their mean scores(P<0.05).
When we are interested in evaluating samples
for sensory characteristics using same judges
with samples obtained from multiple
treatments, analysis of variance for a two-
factor design without replication is useful.
This analysis helps in determining if there are
significant differences among the various
treatments as well as if an significant
differences exist among the judges themselves.
