the variance of a sum or difference is equal to the sum of the individual variances, which demonstrates how the errors propagate

A

propagation of errors

32

it can be used to calculate repeatability and within-lab reproducibility

A

pooled standard deviation

33
Q

a numerical interval around an experimentally determined mean that contains μ with a certain degree of probability

can be determined by the normal distribution curve

A

confidence level

34
Q

what is the numerical magnitude of the confidence limit?

A

confidence interval

35
Q

what is the probability of a result outside the confidence interval?

A

significance level

36
Q

a measurement that is not consistent with the other set of measurements

A

outlier

37
Q

One of the most common significance tests for identifying an outlier

Use if there are no known reasons for an outlier data point

A

dixon’s Q test

38
Q

Qexp in Q test stands for?

A

test statistic

39
Q

Xi in Q test represents?

A

measure of a potential outlier

40
Q

Q Test Hypothesis Testing

there are no outliers present in the data

A

null hypothesis

Ho

41
Q

Q Test Hypothesis Testing

there is an outlier present in the data

A

alternative hypothesis

Ha

42
Q

Q Test Hypothesis Testing

if Qexp > Qcrit

A

reject Ho, accept Ha

meaning, may outlier na present talaga

43
Q

Q Test Hypothesis Testing

if Qexp < Qcrit

A
