Key Synthesis/Potential Test Questions (PTQs) • What is statistics? Making an inference about a population from a sample. • What is the logic that allows you to be 95% confident that the confidence interval contains the population parameter? We know from the CLT that sample means are normally distributed around the real population mean (). Any time you have a sample mean within E (margin of error) of then the confidence interval will contain . Since 95% of the sample means are within E

It is known that there are two data types that are utilized to evaluate and draw meaningful conclusions through statistics‚ population and sample data. These two data types are utilized to formulate end conclusions of data that is to be collected and data that is to be reviewed. The description of population data can best be explained‚ as the complete collection of all data that is to be queried/collected and reviewed. Sample data‚ a subset of population data‚ is the partial collection and review
