What is statistics?
Statistics is the science of:
Collecting information
Organizing and summarizing the information collected
Analyzing the information collected in order to draw conclusions
![Page 2: Statistics is the science of: Collecting information ...wellsmat.startlogic.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/apstat...Collecting information Organizing and summarizing the information](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030413/5a9eef507f8b9a7f178c14b3/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Two types of Statistics
Descriptive Statistics
Organizing and summarizing the
information collected.
Inferential Statistics
Draws conclusion from the information
collected.

Data
Individuals
are objects described by a set of data. Individuals may be people, animals or things.
Variable
is any characteristic of an individual. A variable can take different values for different individuals
![Page 6: Statistics is the science of: Collecting information ...wellsmat.startlogic.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/apstat...Collecting information Organizing and summarizing the information](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030413/5a9eef507f8b9a7f178c14b3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Types of Variables
Categorical variable
allows for classification of individuals
based on some attribute or
characteristics.
Quantitative variable
provides numerical measures of
individuals.

Example, Page 7, #1.2
Data from a medical study contain values of many
variables for each of the people who where subjects
of the study. Which of the following variables are
categorical and which are quantitative?

Distribution
Distribution Tells us what values the variable takes
and how often it takes each value

Example – Page 11, #1.6
In 1997 there were 92,353 deaths from accidents in the
United States. Among these were 42.340 deaths from
Motor vehicle accidents, 11,858 from falls, 10,163 from
poisoning, 4051 from drowning, and 3601 from fires.
A) Find the percent of accidental deaths from each of
these causes, rounded to the nearest percent. What
percent of accidental deaths were due to other causes?

C) Would it also be correct to use a pie chart to display
these data? If so, construct the pie chart. If not
explain why not.
Yes, since categories represent parts of a whole.

gas mileage for 32 model year 2000 midsize cars.
A). Make a dot plot of these data.

B) Describe the shape, center, and spread of the distribution
of gas mileages. Are there any potential outliers?
The shape of the distribution is skewed to the left, with a
major peak at 28 and a minor peak at 24. The spread is
relatively narrow (21 to 32 mpg). The two observations at
21 and the observation at 32 appear to outliers. The center
is 28 mpg.

Example – Page 35, #1.28
In 1978 the English scientist Henry Cavendish measured
the density of the earth by careful work with a torsion balance.
The variable recorded was the density of the earth as a
multiple of the density water. Here are Cavendish’s 29
measurements:
5.50 5.61 4.88 5.07 5.26 5.55 5.36 5.29 5.58 5.65
5.57 5.53 5.62 5.29 5.44 5.34 5.79 5.10 5.27 5.39

5.42 5.47 5.63 5.34 5.46 5.30 5.75 5.68 5.85
Present these measurements graphically in a stemplot.
Discuss the shape, center, and spread of the distribution.
Are there any outliers? What is estimate of the density of
the earth based on these measurements?

The shape of the distribution is
roughly symmetric with one
possible outlier at 4.88 that is
somewhat low. The spread
between 4.88 to 5.85. The
center of the distribution if
between 5.4 and 5.5. Based on
the plot, we would estimate the
Earth’s density to be about
halfway between 5.4 and 5.5.

A) Make a stemplot of these data. The overall shape of the
distribution is irregular, as often happens when only a few
observations are available. Are there any potential
outliers? About where is the center of the distribution (the

C) Write a paragraph comparing SSHA scores for men and
women.
All the displays and descriptions reveal that women
generally score higher than men. The men’s scores
(IQR = 45) are more spread out than the women’s
(even if we don’t ignore the outlier). The shapes of the
distributions are reasonable similar, with each
displaying right skewness.

Standard Deviation
Standard deviation (s) is the square root of the
variance (s² )
Units are the original units
Measures spread about the mean and should only
be used when the mean is chosen as the center
If s = 0 then there is no spread. Observations are
the same value
As s gets larger the observations are more spread
out.
Highly affected by outliers. Best for symmetric data

Linear Transformation
A linear transformation changes the original variable
x into the new variable xnew given by an equation of the
form
newx a bx
Adding the constant a shifts all values of x upward or
downward by the same amount.
Multiplying by the positive constant b changes the size
of the unit of measurement.

she has measured the cockroaches lengths in inches
rather than centimeters. (There are 2.54 cm in 1 inch).
Find the mean and standard deviation of the 5
cockroaches in centimeters.

C) Considering the 5 cockroaches that Maria found
as a small sample from the population of all
cockroaches at her school, what would you
estimate as the average length of the population
of cockroaches? How sure of your estimate
are you?
The average cockroach length can be estimate
as the mean length of the 5 sampled cockroaches
of 1.5 inches. This is a questionable estimate,
because the sample is so small.

A change of units that multiplies each unit by b, such
as change from inches x to centimeters
xnew, multiplies our usual measures of spread by b. This
is true of the IQR and standard deviation. What happens
to the variance when we change units this way?

Variance is changed by a factor of 2.54² = 6.4516

B) Write a few sentences comparing the two
distributions of exam grade. Do you know which
now know which exam is easier? Why or why not?
The distributions are very similar for grades 2, 3, and 4.
The major difference occurs for grades 1 and 5. With a
larger proportion of Statistics students receiving a grade
of 1 and a smaller proportion of Statistics student receiving
a grade of 5.
This suggest that the Statistics exam is harder in the
sense that students are more likely to get a poor grade
on the Statistics Exam than on the Calculus AB exam.

The mean and standard deviation s measure the center
and spread but are not a complete description of a
distribution. Data sets with different shapes can have
the same mean and standard deviation. To demonstrate
this fact, use your calculator to find and s for the
following to small data sets. Then make a stem plot
of each and comment on the shape of each distribution
