There are two points of infection (the points where the curvature changes its direction) which lie at a distance of one standard deviation above mean and one standard deviation below mean.
A point estimate of a population parameter is a single value of a statistic. For example, the sample mean x is a point estimate of the population mean μ. Similarly, the sample proportion p is a point estimate of the population proportion P.
The standard score associated with a given level of significance.
The answer depends on what the test statistic is: a t-statistic, z-score, chi square of something else.
The F statistic is statistic which may be used to test whether a regression accounts for a statistically significant proportion of the observed variation in the dependent variable.
No. A statistic is a number describing a characteristic of a sample.
An inflection point is not a saddle point, but a saddle point is an inflection point. To be precise, a saddle point is both a stationary point and an inflection point. An inflection point is a point at which the curvature changes sign, so it is not necessary to be a stationary point.
An inflection point is a point on a curve at which the sign of the curvature (i.e., the concavity) changes.
no, a critial point is where the slope (or the derivitive) is 0. the inflection point is when the graph switches from concave up to concave down or vice versa
To find the inflection points on a graph, you need to take the second derivative. Then, set that equal to zero to find the x value(s) of the inflection point(s).

inflection point
The point when a curve changes from concave upward to concave downward is called the inflection point. It is the point where the curve transitions from being curved "upwards" to being curved "downwards" or vice versa. At the inflection point, the rate of change of the curve's curvature changes sign.
the second derivative at an inflectiion point is zero
either side of an inflection point
No. The important decider is the second derivative of the polynomial (the gradient of the gradient of the polynomial) at the zero of the first derivative: If less than zero, then the point is a maximum If more than zero, then the point in a minimum If equal to zero, then the point is a point of inflection. Consider the polynomial f(x) = x3, then f'(x) = 3x2 f'(0) = 0 -> x = 0 could be a maximum, minimum or point of inflection. f''(x) = 6x f''(0) = 0 -> x = 0 is a point of inflection Points of inflection do not necessarily have a zero gradient, unlike maxima and minima which must. Points of inflection are the zeros of the second derivative of the polynomial.
It is the same as it is in calculus: Its the point on a curve where the rate of the rate of change of the curve flips.
