a row means an observation if there are many rows.
The parameters of the underlying distribution, plus the standard error of observation.
It may be an outlier, but if not, it is probably the more interesting feature of the observations.
25 x36 = 900 13 x 32 = 416 13 x 40 = 520 ----- 936 936-900 = 36 (13th observation)
the mean is important in statistics because you will find out your average and can compare that mean to other things..
No. One observation will normally get you onevalue, not a set of values. Also, to be precise, the observation is the act of observing; the value is the result of the observation, not the observation itself.
Xi usually refers to an observation or a value in statistics. It is the i'th observation. If there were 10 observations, X5 refers to the fifth observation. In general, Xi refers to the ith observation where i may range from 1 to 10 in this case.
in statistics, summation denoted by upper case sigma, is used to find the sum of a series of observation in a particular variable.
It is a dataset in which each individual observation is retained separately.
An indirect observation is a research technique making use of pre-recorded behaviors. This involves things like statistics tables of reactions of materials, or other such records.
casual observation
something which you can directly see,in science. in statistics it would be something you can descibe or attach a number to. for example if you were to say there are 50people on wikianswers that would be an observation.
Direct Observation, mapping, interviewing, statistics, and the use of technology.
The parameters of the underlying distribution, plus the standard error of observation.
In statistics, this is the symbol for the "Variance"
It may be an outlier, but if not, it is probably the more interesting feature of the observations.
25 x36 = 900 13 x 32 = 416 13 x 40 = 520 ----- 936 936-900 = 36 (13th observation)
Mean is the average.
