3. The most common measures of central tendency are the arithmetic mean,the median and the mode.
4.If the distribution is symmetric then the mean is equal to the median and the distribution will have zero skewness.
6)Variance is the measure of the spread between numbers in a data set.Formula for variance is

Question Help Consider a random variable Y. What is the difference between the sample average Yand the population mean? O A. Both the population mean and the sample average Ý are estimators of the central tendency of the distribution of Y O B. Both the population mean and the sample average Y are true measures of the central tendency of the distribution of Y O C. The population mean is a true measure of the central tendency of the distribution...
Please help ! Concepts to be familiar with: 1. Difference between populations (parameters) and samples (statistics): definitions and notation differences 2. Descriptive v. inferential statistics. What are they? What are their limitations? 3. Independent Variables (IVs) and Dependent Variables (DVs): definitions and how to recognize which is which in a study description 4. Discrete vs. continuous variables, apparent vs. real limits 5. Scales of measurement (N,O,I,R). Know what they are and examples of each. 6. Frequency tables: a. X, f,...
L.1) BinomialDist[1, p] random variables In what context do random variables with BinomialDist[1, p] arise? L.2) Expected value and Variance for the Binomial[1, p] and Binomial[n, p] random variables a) Go with a random variable X with BinomialDist[1, p Calculate Expect[X] and Var[X]. b) Go with a random variable X with BinomialDist[n, p]. Use the fact that X is the sum of n independent random variables each with BinomialDist[1, pl to explain why: Expect[x]-n p and Var[X]-np(p) L.3) Relations among...
