    Study Notes

    Frequency Distribution Table (FDT)

    • A statistical table used to summarize and organize data
    • Has several columns: Class, Tally, Frequency (f), True Class Boundary (TCB), Relative Frequency (RF%), and Class Mark (CM)

    Steps to Construct an FDT

    • Determine the range (R) of the data
    • Determine the number of classes (k) using the rule of thumb or a formula
    • Compute the class interval (c)
    • Construct the classes with lower and upper class limits
    • Summation notation is used to give a concise expression for a sum of values of a variable

    Statistics

    • Concerned with scientific methods of collection, organization, presentation, analysis, and interpretation of data
    • Branches: Descriptive Statistics (summarizing and presenting data) and Inferential Statistics (drawing conclusions and making decisions)

    Descriptive Statistics

    • Focuses on organizing, summarizing, and presenting data
    • Uses measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) and variability (range, variance, standard deviation)

    Summation Notation

    • Used to express the sum of values of a variable
    • Example: ∑xi = x1 + x2 + … + xN

    Frequency Distribution Table Applications

    • Cumulative frequencies (CF) and relative cumulative frequencies (RCF) can be computed
    • Applications in business, economics, social sciences, and engineering

    Example: Frequency Distribution Table of Stock Prices

    • Class: intervals of stock prices (e.g., 15-19, 20-24, etc.)
    • Frequency (f): number of observations in each class
    • True Class Boundary (TCB): lower and upper limits of each class
    • Relative Frequency (RF%): proportion of observations in each class
    • Class Mark (CM): midpoint of each class interval
