What is Meant
by Statistics Copyright ©2021 McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. � What is statistics? � It’s more than presenting numerical facts Example: The inflation rate for the calendar year was 0.7%. By applying statistics we could compare this year’s inflation rate to past observations of inflation. Is it higher, lower, or about the same? Is there a trend of increasing or decreasing inflation? Is there a relationship between interest rates and government bonds? 1-4 STATISTICS The science of collecting, organizing, presenting, analyzing, and interpreting data to assist in making more effective decisions.

Types of Statistics Copyright
©2021 McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. � There are two types of statistics, descriptive and inferential � Descriptive statistics can be used to organize data into a meaningful form � You can summarize data and provide information that is easy to understand � Example: There are a total of 46,837 miles of interstate highways in the U.S. The interstate system represents 1% of the nation’s roads, but carries more than 20% of the traffic. Texas has the most interstate highways and Alaska doesn’t have any. 1-5 DESCRIPTIVE STATISTICS Methods of organizing, summarizing, and presenting data in an informative way.

Types of Statistics
(2 of 3) Copyright ©2021 McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. � Inferential statistics can be used to estimate properties of a population � You can make decisions based on a limited set of data � Example: In 2015, a sample of U.S. Internal Revenue Service tax preparation volunteers were tested with three standard tax returns. The sample indicated that tax returns were completed with a 49% accuracy rate. In other words, there were errors on about half of the returns. 1-6 INFERENTIAL STATISTICS The methods used to estimate a property of a population on the basis of a sample.

Types of Variables
(2 of 2) Copyright ©2021 McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. � Quantitative variables can be discrete or continuous � Discrete variables are typically the result of counting � Values have “gaps” between the values � Examples: the number of bedrooms in a house (1, 2, 3, 4, etc.), the number of students in a statistics course (326, 421, etc.) � Continuous variables are usually the result of measuring something � Can assume any value within a specific range � Examples: Duration of flights from Orlando to San Diego (5.25 hours), grade point average (3.258) 1-9

The interval level of measurement is based on a scale with a known unit of measurement.
