Equations Flashcards
Linear transformations
Adding “a” to every member of a data set adds “a” to the measures of position but does NOT change the measures of spread
Multiplying every member of a data set by “b” multiplies the measures of position by “b” and multiplies most measures of spread by |b| but does NOT change the shape
Using Normcdf and InvNorm
Calc tips
Using boundaries to find area normcdf(min, max, mean, sd)
Using area to find boundaries
Invnorm(area to left as a decimal, mean, sd)
What’s a residual
Eq too
Residual= y - y hat (actual - predicted)
A residual measures the difference between the actual and predicted y value that’s predicted by the LSRL
Paired t test identification hints Ho and Ha
Key phrase: mean difference
Two lists of numbers are paired
Ho: mean dif = 0
Ha: mean dif , not equal to
Mean dif = the true mean difference in ___
Conditional probability
Probability that one event occurs given that another event is already known to have occured
Outlier rule
Upper cutoff = Q3 + 1.5(IQR)
Lower cutoff = Q1 - 1.5(IQR)
IQR = Q3 - Q1
Two events are mutually exclusive if
P(A and B) = 0
Events A and B are mutually exclusive if they share no outcomes
Two events are independent if
Events A and B are independent if knowing that Event A has occurred or not, doesnt change the probability that Event B occurs
