Exercise 36 Answers 1. Since the F value is significant‚ based on the p-value of 0.005 which is less than 0.05 which is sufficient to reject the null hypothesis. This suggests that there is a difference in the control and treatment groups. 2. Since the p- value is less than 0.05 and therefor the null hypothesis can be rejected. This presents that the mean‚ difficulty and mobility scores‚ must be different 3. The result was statistically significant with a probability score of p < 0.001.

How to Lie with Statistics Book Summary The book How to Lie with Statistics written by Darrell Huff shows you how statistics are used to mislead; sometimes unintentionally‚ other times on purpose. It gives the readers the knowledge necessary to intelligently question and understand the story behind the numbers. In other words‚ it shows the tricks the crooks use‚ so that honest men can use this knowledge for self defense. I think it’s particularly useful for a manager or an executive to read

Chapter 1: Introduction 1. Origin of Statistics: The word Statistics seems to have been derived from Latin word ‘Status’‚ German word ‘Statistik’ or Italian word ‘Statista’.

1) What is the difference between probability distributions and frequency distributions? Provide an example that demonstrates the difference between the two. A probability distribution directly corresponds to a frequency distribution‚ except that it is based on theory (probability theory)‚ rather than on what is observed in the real world (empirical data). A frequency distribution is based on actual observations. An example would be observing a coin be flipped twenty times. A probability distribution
