F-distribution: A continuous right-skewed statistical distribution also Known as Snedecor’s F distribution or the Fisher - Snedecor distribution ( After R.A. Fisher and George W. Snedecor)(2) which arises in the testing of whether two observed samples have the same variance. (1) Note that three of the most important distributions (namely the normal distribution‚ the t distribution‚ and the chi-square distribution) may be seen as special cases of the F distribution: (3) Example: We want to

2.3. The Chi-Square Distribution One of the most important special cases of the gamma distribution is the chi-square distribution because the sum of the squares of independent normal random variables with mean zero and standard deviation one has a chi-square distribution. This section collects some basic properties of chi-square random variables‚ all of which are well known; see Hogg and Tanis [6]. A random variable X has a chi-square distribution with n degrees of freedom if it is a gamma

31 THE RETAIL DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL C H A P T E R 2 Early in 2005‚ IBM Business Consulting Services released a survey that compiled in-depth interviews with more than 100 sales‚ marketing‚ and merchandising executives at over 20 consumer products and retail companies. Only 9 percent of the retailers felt their suppliers had “a good understanding” of their business objectives. The gist of the survey was that retailers felt the product manufacturers have focused their efforts on the end

Distribution channel plays an important part in the supply chain. Distribution channel‚ as defined by Coughlan et al. (2006)‚ is a set of independent organizations involved in the process of making a product or service available for consumption. It serves as the connecting link between the producer and consumer by adding value to products or services (Kim and Frazier‚ 1996) and multiplies selling opportunities through network of intermediaries. These independent organizations are usually made of

The T-Distribution and T-Test “In probability and statistics‚ Student ’s t-distribution (or simply the t-distribution) is a continuous probability distribution that arises when estimating the mean of a normally distributed population in situations where the sample size is small” (Narasimhan ‚ 1996). Similar to the normal distribution‚ the t-distribution is symmetric and bell-shaped‚ but has heavier tails‚ meaning that it is more likely to produce values far from its mean. This makes the t-distribution
