STAT 301 Lecture Notes - Standard Score, Standard Deviation
Document Summary
Briefly describe the sampled population (assume 100% attendance for today) Obviously, this data set is not census data. In 1 or 2 sentences, describe why it"s not. The data set does not include the height of every man in this section, not everyone in the population was sampled. The variable in this study can be classified as. The parameter of interest in this setting is true average height of men in this section of stat. Now, consider that all of the men were wearing skis and boots when they were measured . In order to eliminate this bias you need to subtract 3 inches from each response. x = The variance and standard deviation do not change at all, but we would subtract (or add) the constant to our mean to get the new mean. Lastly, convert the original heights for the men from inches to centimeters. X* x * (x* - x *) (x* - x *)2.
