Study Notes
Measures of Center
- Mode is a measure of center that represents the most frequently occurring value in a dataset.
Standard Deviation
- The formula for calculating the standard deviation of a sample is: σ = √[(Σ(xi - x̄)²) / (n - 1)].
- This formula calculates the spread of a sample dataset from its mean value.
Normal Distribution
- A characteristic of a normal distribution is that it is symmetric and bell-shaped, with the mean, median, and mode all equal.
- In a normal distribution, about 68% of the data falls within one standard deviation of the mean.
