Descriptive Statistics and Probability Distribution Problem Sets Emily Noah QNT561 Anthony Matias December 24‚ 2012 Descriptive Statistics and Probability Distribution Problems Sets Descriptive statistics and probability distribution is two ways to find information with certain data giving. In Descriptive statistics the data can give a mode‚ mean‚ median‚ and range by the numerical information‚ which is giving to find the information. In probability distribution the data is collected and

Theoretical vs. Empirical Probability Probability- describes the chance that an uncertain event will occur. Empirical Probability - estimate that the event will happen based on how often the event occurs after collecting the data or running an experiment. It is based specifically on direct observation or experiences. Empirical Probability Formula P(E) = probability that an event‚ E‚ will occur. Top = number of ways the specific event occurs. Bottom = number of ways the experiment

consecutive points falling on one side of the centerline When the process is in statistical control‚ find the false alarm probability (Type-I error) for each case. The corresponding probability measures are obtained from the Normal table as P(3 " Z) = 0.00135 P(2 " Z) = 0.02275 P(1 " Z) = 0.1587 Solution: ! i) Use the Binomial distribution to ! calculate the probability measures. ! 3! 3! P(Y ! 2 n = 3‚ p = 0.02275) = (0.02275)2 (1" 0.02275) + (0.02275)3 = 0.00153 2!1! 3!0! Type-1

The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight Love at first sight is a controversial subject because it’s a matter of believing in fate or not. Fate is a peculiar thing‚ at that. In The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight by Jennifer E. Smith‚ the main characters‚ Hadley and Oliver‚ meet against all odds on a modern day flight to England from America. Oliver‚ is the British boy Hadley never imagined she would ever meet let alone fall head over heels for in such a short period of

“The consequences of behavior determine the probability that the behavior will occur again” - B.F. Skinner. This theme is proven time and time again as Skinner tested his theories with a wide range of subjects. Famous for his research in operant conditioning‚ Skinner developed a machine designed to show the responses of his tests as a sloped line. Using this device‚ Skinner discovered that behavior was not dependent upon the preceding action but rather was heavily influenced by the response after
