Study Notes

Relative Frequency and Histograms

  • A relative frequency distribution indicates the proportion of occurrences of a certain outcome in relation to the total.
  • For databases with occurrences of a keyword, the relative frequency of at least one occurrence is 0.8, calculated by 1 minus the relative frequency of 0 occurrences (0.2).

Creating Histograms with Calculators

  • Steps for creating a histogram on a TI-83/Plus/84:
    • Access data entry through the STAT key.
    • Input data into lists (e.g., L1).
    • Activate STAT PLOT by pressing 2nd then Y=.
    • Set Xlist to L1 and apply ZoomStat using 2nd then 9 for effective visual representation.

Frequency Distributions in Baseball and Gaming

  • In baseball, the relative frequency of games with no home runs is 0.3, determined using a similar calculator process by tallying outcomes and calculating proportions.
  • For game responses, 7 out of 10 respondents played at least one game by summing the frequencies of responses of 1 and 2.

Identifying Wait Times and Defective Products

  • In a fast food context, out of 10 recorded wait times, 2 instances were 60 seconds or longer.
  • For production facilities, 7 had between 4 and 6 defective items out of 10 checks.

Sleep Patterns and Meteorological Data

  • Among 10 respondents about sleep, 6 averaged fewer than 8 hours per night, highlighting common sleep habits in a specific age range.
  • Meteorological predictions showed 2 days with predicted high temperatures outside the 70s for 10 consecutive days.

Analyzing Height and Caloric Intake

  • Using height data, a histogram can visually represent the distribution of classmates' heights.
  • A right-skewed histogram analyzing calories in fast food suggests most meals are lower in calories, indicating a healthy option trend.

Day Care Attendance and Customer Feedback

  • A day care scheduled 5 or fewer children for various days; calculating the relative frequency distribution can aid in understanding occupancy rates.
  • In customer feedback, the relative frequency of 5-star ratings is 0.5, indicating a majority of positive service feedback.

Educational Test Scores and Video Card Purchases

  • For average test scores, relative frequency distributions showing 0.4 for scores of at least 80 can highlight student performance trends.
  • The relative frequency of computers with more than 1 video card is calculated at 0.3, reflecting technological preferences in purchasing behaviors.
