This document discusses sampling distributions and simulations. It summarizes the results of two simulations: 1) A simulation of sampling 20 individuals to estimate the mean height of a population. The distribution was centered at 64 inches and reasonably symmetric. 2) A simulation of sampling 5 individuals to estimate the mean number of children in a population. The distribution was roughly symmetric with a single peak at 6, with values mostly between 4 and 8.

7.2 writing and solving proportions 2
The document discusses proportions and scale drawings. It explains that scale drawings show shape but not actual size, and a scale gives the ratio between measurements in a drawing and reality. It then provides examples of using scales and proportions to find actual distances and lengths based on maps and scale drawings.
Drawing to-scale2519
This document discusses scale factors and drawing to scale when creating architectural plans. It explains that scale factors are used to reduce or enlarge shapes proportionally so they can fit on a page. Architects use scales like 1:20 or 1:100, where 1cm on the drawing represents 20cm or 100cm in real life. This allows them to accurately draw floor plans and show the relative sizes of rooms, doors, windows, and other features in a building design. Examples are provided for how to determine real-life sizes from measurements on drawings using different scale factors.

Chapter 6: Normal Probability Distributions
Probability & Samples
This document discusses the distribution of sample means and the central limit theorem. It begins by explaining how sampling distributions allow us to consider probabilities for groups of scores rather than single scores. It then discusses how the distribution of all possible sample means from a population follows a predictable pattern. Specifically, the central limit theorem states that the distribution of sample means will be normally distributed with a mean equal to the population mean and a standard deviation related to the sample size. This allows probabilities and z-scores to be calculated for sample means. The document provides examples to illustrate these concepts.

Sampling Distributions and Estimators
The document discusses sampling distributions and estimators from chapter 6 of an elementary statistics textbook. It defines a sampling distribution of a statistic as the distribution of all values of a statistic (such as sample mean or proportion) obtained from samples of the same size from a population. The sampling distributions of sample proportions and means tend to be normally distributed, with their means converging on the population parameter. Specifically, the mean of sample proportions equals the population proportion, and the mean of sample means equals the population mean. The distribution of sample variances, on the other hand, tends to be right-skewed.
Chap 6
This document discusses sampling distributions and their properties. It begins by defining key terms like population, sample, population size, sample size, and probability sample. It then explains that the sampling distribution of the sample mean is a distribution of all possible means from random samples of a given size from a population. The central limit theorem states that as the sample size increases, the sampling distribution of the sample mean will approach a normal distribution, even if the population is not normally distributed. It provides examples to illustrate sampling distributions and their means, standard deviations, and shapes. It also discusses how to calculate probabilities related to sampling distributions.

This document discusses the distribution of sample means when taking samples from a population. It explains that as the sample size increases, the distribution of sample means approaches a normal distribution, even if the population is not normally distributed. The mean of the distribution of sample means is equal to the population mean. The variability of the distribution is measured by the standard error, which depends on the sample size and population standard deviation. Larger sample sizes result in smaller standard errors and distributions of sample means that are nearly normal.

Introduction & Goals
This week's investigations introduce and explore one of the most common distributions (one you may be familiar with): the Normal Distribution. In our explorations of the distribution and its associated curve, we will revisit the question of "What is typical?" and look at the likelihood (probability) that certain observations would occur in a given population with a variable that is normally distributed. We will apply our work with Normal Distributions to briefly explore some big concepts of inferential statistics, including the Central Limit Theorem and Hypothesis Testing. There are a lot of new ideas in this week’s work. This week is more exploratory in nature.
Goals:
· Explore the Empirical Rule
· Become familiar with the normal curve as a mathematical model, its applications and limitations
· Calculate z-scores & explain what they mean
· Use technology to calculate normal probabilities
· Determine the statistical significance of an observed difference in two means
· Use technology to perform a hypothesis test comparing means (z-test) and interpret its meaning
· Use technology to perform a hypothesis test comparing means (t-test) (optional)
· Gather data for Comparative Study Final Project.

DoW #5: The SAT & The ACT
Two Common Tests for college admission are the SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) and the ACT (American College Test). The scores for these tests are scaled so that they follow a normal distribution.
· The SAT reported that its scores were normally distributed with a mean μ=896 and a standard deviation σ=174
· The ACT reported that its scores were normally distributed with a mean μ=20.6 and a standard deviation σ=5.2.
We have two questions to consider for this week’s DoW:
2. A high school student Bobby takes both of these tests. On the SAT, he achieves a score of 1080. On the ACT, he achieves a score of 30. He cannot decide which score is the better one to send with his college applications.
. Question: Which test score is the stronger score to send to his colleges?
· A hypothetical group called SAT Prep claims that students who take their SAT Preparatory course score higher on the SAT than the general population. To support their claim, they site a study in which a random sample of 50 SAT Prep students had a mean SAT score of 1000. They claim that since this mean is higher than the known mean of 896 for all SAT scores, their program must improve SAT scores.
. Question: Is this difference in the mean scores statistically significant? Does SAT Prep truly improve SAT Scores?
.
Investigation 1: What is Normal?
One reason for gathering data is to see which observations are most likely. For instance, when we looked at the raisin data in DoW #3, we were looking to see what the most likely number of raisins was for each brand of raisins. We cannot ever be certain of the exact number of raisins in a box (because it varies) ...

The document discusses key concepts related to probability and statistics, including:
- Probability is a number that reflects the likelihood of an event occurring, ranging from 0 to 1.
- Standard deviation measures how spread out values are from the mean.
- The normal distribution is a bell-shaped curve used to model naturally occurring phenomena.
- The t-distribution is similar to the normal distribution but with heavier tails, used when sample sizes are small.
- The normal probability curve is a graphical representation of the normal distribution, and is used to determine probabilities and percentiles.

This document discusses probability distributions and sampling distributions. It begins by reviewing individual scores and sample distributions. It then defines key terms like population, sample, and sampling error. It introduces the concept of a sampling distribution, which is the distribution of all possible sample means from a population. The document explains that as sample size increases, the sampling distribution approaches a normal distribution based on the Central Limit Theorem. It also discusses how the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution relate to the population parameters.
Gravetter10e_PPT_Ch07_student.pptx
This document provides an overview of key concepts regarding the distribution of sample means. It discusses how the distribution of sample means approaches a normal shape as sample size increases based on the central limit theorem. The mean of this distribution is equal to the population mean, making the sample mean an unbiased statistic. The variability of the distribution is measured by the standard error, which decreases as sample size increases. The document shows how to calculate a z-score for a sample mean based on the standard error in order to determine the probability of obtaining a sample with a given mean. It previews how these concepts will be applied in inferential statistics.
A.2 se and sd
The document discusses standard error and standard deviation. It defines parameters as describing populations using Greek letters, while statistics describe samples using non-Greek letters. Standard error estimates the standard deviation of a statistic and is used to calculate confidence intervals and margin of error. It relies on sample statistics rather than population parameters. The central limit theorem states that for a large enough sample size from any population, the sampling distribution of the sample mean will be approximately normally distributed.

3) It also discusses drawing a histogram of scores from an applied math exam and recalling properties of the normal distribution like finding z-scores and the percentage of scores above or below certain values.
2-SampZTest: Comparing Two Means Using the TI-84
This document provides guidance on using a TI-84 graphing calculator to perform statistical tests comparing two means. It emphasizes that while the calculator can perform complex calculations, the user must understand which test to apply, the hypotheses, and how to interpret results. An example is provided demonstrating the two-sample z-test on the calculator. Users are advised to show their work and input values when using the calculator to perform statistical tests.
CI for Difference of Proportions
- The document discusses comparing two proportions from different populations or groups using confidence intervals and significance tests.
- It provides the formula for calculating a confidence interval for the difference between two proportions (p1 - p2) based on sample data. The standard error takes into account the sample sizes and proportions.
- An example calculates a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportion of US teens and adults who use social media based on survey data, finding the interval to be between 0.223 and 0.297.
Sampling Distribution
This document discusses sampling distributions and their relationship to statistical inference. It defines key terms like population, parameter, sample, and statistic. A sampling distribution describes the possible values of a statistic calculated from random samples of the same size from a population. It explains that there are population distributions, sample data distributions, and sampling distributions. The mean and spread of a sampling distribution determine if a statistic is an unbiased estimator and how variable it is. Larger sample sizes result in smaller variability in the sampling distribution.
Discrete and Continuous Random Variables
The document discusses discrete and continuous random variables. It defines discrete random variables as variables that can take on countable values, like the number of heads from coin flips. Continuous random variables can take any value within a range, like height. The document explains how to calculate and interpret the mean, standard deviation, and probabilities of events for both types of random variables using examples like Apgar scores for babies and heights of young women.
Module 4 Review
This document provides an overview of important concepts in sampling methods, experimental design, bias, and statistics vocabulary. It defines different sampling methods like census, convenience sampling, cluster sampling, multistage sampling, simple random sampling, and stratified random sampling. It also discusses potential sources of bias, experimental designs like block design and matched pairs design, principles of experimental design like control and random assignment, and key terminology.

Scatterplots - LSRLs - RESIDs
This document discusses scatterplots and correlation. Scatterplots can be used to display the relationship between two quantitative variables, known as the explanatory and response variables. Correlation measures the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables on a scale of -1 to 1. A correlation near -1 or 1 indicates a strong linear relationship, while a value closer to 0 indicates a weaker linear relationship or no relationship. Scatterplots can be interpreted by describing the direction, form, and strength of the relationship between variables as well as identifying any outliers.
M3 l3
This document discusses various methods for transforming nonlinear data to achieve linearity so that regression analysis can be used, including power, exponential, and logarithmic transformations. It provides examples of applying each type of transformation to real world datasets involving fish length and weight, transistor counts over time, and planet distances and revolution periods. Key steps covered are identifying an appropriate transformation based on theoretical relationships between variables, applying the transformation to the data, fitting a least squares regression line to the transformed data, and using the linear model to make predictions for new data points.
Module 2 lesson 3 notes
This document contains notes about describing location within a distribution. It discusses percentiles and how they describe the percentage of values below a given score. For example, the 64th percentile means 64% of scores were below that value. It also introduces z-scores as a way to standardize scores and compare values in different distributions based on their distance from the mean in units of standard deviation. Finally, it discusses density curves and how they can be used to describe an overall data pattern, with a normal distribution having 68% of values within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
Graphical Displays of Data
This document discusses various methods for graphically displaying data in statistics, including time series graphs, bar charts, histograms, circle graphs, dot plots, stem plots, ogives, and indicators of misleading graphs. It provides examples and descriptions of how to properly interpret and construct each type of graph. Key points include showing change over time with time series graphs, comparing categories with bar charts, displaying continuous or binned data with histograms, showing percentages with circle graphs, listing all values with dot and stem plots, and calculating cumulative frequencies with ogives. Misleading graphs are identified as those that distort scale, lack labels, omit data, or have uneven bins.

Sampling Distributions FRQ Review
- 3. #1 • (a) This is not the exact sampling distribution because that would require a value of for all possible samples of size 20. However, it is an approximation of the sampling distribution that we created through simulation. • (b) The distribution is centered at 64 and is reasonably symmetric and bell-shaped. Values vary from about 62.4 to 65.7. There do not seem to be any outliers. • (c) If we found that the sample mean was 64.7 inches, we would likely conclude that this population mean height for females at this school could be 64. In our simulation we found values of 64.7 or larger in about 10% of the samples. x
- 5. #2 • (a) No, since the distribution didn’t use all possible samples of size 5, this isn’t the exact sampling distribution. • (b) Shape: The graph is roughly symmetric with a single peak at 6. Center: The mean of the distribution is about 6. Spread: The values fall mostly between 4 and 8, although there are values as low as 2 and as high as 10. Outliers: There don’t seem to be any outliers.
