We are manipulating one-variable statistics.
To begin:
Turn on the calculator.
Access statistics mode.
Select
<4:ClrList> to clear data from lists, if desired.
,
Enter list
[L1] to be cleared.
,
[L1] ,
Display last instruction.
,
[ENTRY]
Continue clearing remaining lists in the same fashion, if desired.
,
,
[L2] ,
Access statistics mode.
Select
<1:Edit . . .>
Enter data. Data values go into
[L1] . (You may need to arrow over to
[L1] ).
Type in a data value and enter it. (For negative numbers, use the negate (-) key at the bottom of the keypad).
,
,
Continue in the same manner until all data values are entered.
In
[L2] , enter the frequencies for each data value in
[L1] .
Type in a frequency and enter it. (If a data value appears only once, the frequency is "1").
,
Continue in the same manner until all data values are entered.
Access statistics mode.
Navigate to
<CALC> .
Access
<1:1-var Stats> .
Indicate that the data is in
[L1] ...
,
[L1] ,
...and indicate that the frequencies are in
[L2] .
,
[L2] ,
The statistics should be displayed. You may arrow down to get remaining statistics. Repeat as necessary.
Drawing histograms
Note
We will assume that the data is already entered.
We will construct two histograms with the built-in STATPLOT application. The first way will use the default ZOOM. The second way will involve customizing a new graph.
Access graphing mode.
,
[STAT PLOT]
Select
<1:plot 1> to access plotting - first graph.
Use the arrows navigate go to
<ON> to turn on Plot 1.
<ON> ,
Use the arrows to go to the histogram picture and select the histogram.
Use the arrows to navigate to
<Xlist> .
If "L1" is not selected, select it.
,
[L1] ,
Use the arrows to navigate to
<Freq> .
Assign the frequencies to
[L2] .
,
[L2] ,
Go back to access other graphs.
,
[STAT PLOT]
Use the arrows to turn off the remaining plots.
Be sure to deselect or clear all equations before graphing.
Step 1: Find the mean. To find the mean, add up all the scores, then divide them by the number of scores. ...
Step 2: Find each score's deviation from the mean. ...
Step 3: Square each deviation from the mean. ...
Step 4: Find the sum of squares. ...
Step 5: Divide the sum of squares by n – 1 or N.
The sample of 16 students is taken. The average age in the sample was 22 years with astandard deviation of 6 years. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the age of the population.
Bhartdarshan' is an internet-based travel agency wherein customer can see videos of the cities they plant to visit. The number of hits daily is a normally distributed random variable with a mean of 10,000 and a standard deviation of 2,400
a. what is the probability of getting more than 12,000 hits?
b. what is the probability of getting fewer than 9,000 hits?
