A FICO score is the credit score mathematically developed by the company FICO. It shows potential lenders the risk that they are taking lending to you. The score is on a range starting at 300 and ending at 850; the higher your credit score‚ the probability that you will be lent to‚ increases. The score itself is determined from credit reports that disclose the individual’s history of financial activity. Their gender‚ race‚ religion‚ nor age play a role. From most influential to least‚ it is composed

Probability Distribution Essay Example Suppose you flip a coin two times. This simple statistical experiment can have four possible outcomes: HH‚ HT‚ TH‚ and TT. Now‚ let the random variable X represent the number of Heads that result from this experiment. The random variable X can only take on the values 0‚ 1‚ or 2‚ so it is a discrete random variable Binomial Probability Function: it is a discrete distribution. The distribution is done when the results are not ranged along a wide range‚ but are

Discrete and Continuous Probability All probability distributions can be categorized as discrete probability distributions or as continuous probability distributions (stattrek.com). A random variable is represented by “x” and it is the result of the discrete or continuous probability. A discrete probability is a random variable that can either be a finite or infinite of countable numbers. For example‚ the number of people who are online at the same time taking a statistics class at CTU on

difference between the mean and median can be illustrated with an example. Suppose we draw a sample of five women and measure their weights. They weigh 100 pounds‚ 100 pounds‚ 130 pounds‚ 140 pounds‚ and 150 pounds. To find the median‚ we arrange the observations in order from smallest to largest value. If there is an odd number of observations‚ the median is the middle value. If there is an even number of observations‚ the median is the average of the two middle values. Thus‚ in the sample of five

Data* *Attached V. Results and Questions 1. (a) *Graph (b) The probability that the dart will hit in ring four is 16 out of 100. A dart will be most likely to hit the bulls-eye about 5 cm from it. (c) Our graph has a spike in hits on the ring

approximation A ≈ An = 1 n n Xk . k=1 The strong law of large numbers states that An → A as n → ∞. The Xk and An are random and (depending on the seed‚ see Section 9.2) could be different each time we run the program. Still‚ the target number‚ A‚ is not random. We emphasize this point by distinguishing between Monte Carlo and simulation. Simulation means producing random variables with a certain distribution just to look at them. For example‚ we might have a model of a random process that
