A numerical value used as a summary measure for a sample such as sample mean is known as a?
This is called a sample statistic. They are often used to give a general picture of a more specific whole.
What rule or principle is frequently expressed in statistical symbols?
Here are some commonly used symbols in statistics.μ is used to denote the population mean and σ is used for the population standard deviation. Some other very common and important ones arex (with a bar on top) which is used for the sample mean and s which is used for sample standard deviation.
What is the difference between convenience judgment and random sampling?
Non-probability or Judgement Samples has to do with a basic researcher assumptions about the nature of the population, the researcher assumes that any sample would be representative to the population,the results of this type of samples can not be generalized to the population(cause it may not be representative as the research assumed) and the results may be biased. Probability or Random samples is a sample that to be drawn from the population such that each element in the population has a chance to be in the selected sample the results of the random samples can be used in Statistical inference purposes
When the population standard deviation is unknown and the sample size is less than 30 what table value should be used in computing a confidence interval for a mean?
t-test for means
What distribution does the F distribution approach as the sample size increases?
The F distribution is used to test whether two population variances are the same. The sampled populations must follow the normal distribution. Therefore, as the sample size increases, the F distribution approaches the normal distribution.
