It seems like it kind of approximates this trend, although it doesn't seem like a great trend. And if we ignore these two points right over here, we could do something like, maybe something like that. But we can't just ignore points like that, so I would say that there's actually no good line of best fit here. So let m...

And then you have, what is this, five, no, this is three pies that have at least 120, but no more than 149 cherries. And this accounts for all of the pies. So the total number of pies you have at this store are five plus eight plus four plus three, which is what? Five plus eight is 13, plus four is 17, plus three is 20...
How to interpret a histogram Data and statistics 6th grade Khan Academy.mp3
Five plus eight is 13, plus four is 17, plus three is 20. So there are 20 pies in this store. But then you can ask more nuanced questions. What if you wanted to know the number of pies with more than 60 cherries? The number of pies with more than 60. So number of pies with, I'll say, let's say 60 or more. 60 or more, 6...

60 or more, 60 or more cherries. So let's think about it. Well, this magenta bar doesn't apply because these all have less than 60, but all of these other bars are counting pies that have 60 or more cherries. This is 60 to 89, this is 90 to 119, this is 120 to 149. So it's going to be these eight cherries that are, sor...

This is 60 to 89, this is 90 to 119, this is 120 to 149. So it's going to be these eight cherries that are, sorry, these eight pies that are in this bucket plus these four pies, plus these three pies. So it is going to be essentially everything but this first bucket. Everything but all the pies except for these five pi...
How to interpret a histogram Data and statistics 6th grade Khan Academy.mp3
Everything but all the pies except for these five pies have 60 or more cherries. So it should be five less than 20, and so let's see, eight plus four is 12, plus three is 15, which is five less than 20. So using this histogram, we can answer a really interesting question. We can say, well, wait, how many more pies do w...

And you can actually click on each of these and zoom in to really be able to study these graphs in detail. So I've already taken a screenshot of this and put it on my little doodle pad, so it can really delve into some of the math and the intuition of what this is actually showing us. So here I took a screenshot, and y...

And down here in this chart, he plots the population mean right here at 10.6, right over there, and you see that the population variance is at 36.8, and right here he plots that right over here, 36.8. So this first chart on the bottom left tells us a couple of interesting things. And just to be clear, this is the biase...

This is the biased sample variance. So he's calculating it. That is being calculated for each of our data points, so starting with our first data point in each of our samples, going to our nth data point in the sample. You're taking that data point, subtracting out the sample mean, squaring it, and then dividing the wh...
Simulation showing bias in sample variance Probability and Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
You're taking that data point, subtracting out the sample mean, squaring it, and then dividing the whole thing not by n minus one, but by lowercase n. And this tells us several interesting things. The first thing it shows us is that the cases where we are significantly underestimating the sample variance, when we're ge...
Simulation showing bias in sample variance Probability and Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
The cases where the mean is way far off from the sample mean, it seems like you're much more likely to underestimate the sample variance in those situations. The other thing that might pop out at you is the realization that the pinker dots are the ones for smaller sample size, while the bluer dots are the ones of a lar...

That most of the bluish or the purplish dots are focused right in the middle right over here, that they are giving us better estimates. There are some red ones here, and that's why it gives us that purplish color. But out here on these tails, it's almost purely some of these red. Every now and then, by happenstance, yo...

Every now and then, by happenstance, you get a little blue one. But this is disproportionately far more red, which really makes sense. When you have a smaller sample size, you're more likely to get a sample mean that is a bad estimate of the population mean, that's far from the population mean, and you're more likely t...

And so we can come up with a general theme that's happening. When we use the biased estimate, when we use the biased estimate, we're not approaching the population variance, we're approaching n minus one, let me write this down, we're approaching n minus one over n times the population variance. When n was two, this ap...

What proportion of laptop prices are between $624 and $768? So let's think about what they are asking. So we have a normal distribution for the prices. So it would look something like this. And this is just my hand-drawn sketch of a normal distribution. So it would look something like this. It should be symmetric.
Standard normal table for proportion between values AP Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
So it would look something like this. And this is just my hand-drawn sketch of a normal distribution. So it would look something like this. It should be symmetric. So I'm making it as symmetric as I can hand-draw it. And we have the mean right in the center. So the mean would be right there.
Standard normal table for proportion between values AP Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
It should be symmetric. So I'm making it as symmetric as I can hand-draw it. And we have the mean right in the center. So the mean would be right there. And that is $750. They also tell us that we have a standard deviation of $60. So that means one standard deviation above the mean would be roughly right over here.
Standard normal table for proportion between values AP Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
So the mean would be right there. And that is $750. They also tell us that we have a standard deviation of $60. So that means one standard deviation above the mean would be roughly right over here. And that'd be 750 plus 60. So that would be $810. One standard deviation below the mean would put us right about there.
Standard normal table for proportion between values AP Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
So that means one standard deviation above the mean would be roughly right over here. And that'd be 750 plus 60. So that would be $810. One standard deviation below the mean would put us right about there. And that would be 750 minus $60, which would be $690. And then they tell us what proportion of laptop prices are b...
Standard normal table for proportion between values AP Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
One standard deviation below the mean would put us right about there. And that would be 750 minus $60, which would be $690. And then they tell us what proportion of laptop prices are between $624 and $768? So the lower bound, $624, that's going to actually be more than another standard deviation less. So that's going t...
Standard normal table for proportion between values AP Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
So the lower bound, $624, that's going to actually be more than another standard deviation less. So that's going to be right around here. So that is $624. And $768 would put us right at about there. And once again, this is just a hand-drawn sketch. But that is 768. And so what proportion are between those two values?

So let's do that. Let's figure out first the z-score for 768. And then we'll do it for 624. The z-score for 768, I'll write it like that, is going to be 768 minus 750 over the standard deviation, over 60. So this is going to be equal to 18 over 60, which is the same thing as six over, let's see if we divide the numerat...

So that is the z-s...

Let's figure out what proportion is less than that. For that, we take out a z-table. Get our z-table. And let's see, we want to get 0.30. So this is zero. And so this is 0.30, this first column, and we've done this in other videos, this goes up until the 10th place for our z-score, and then if we want to get to our 100...

And let's see, we want to get 0.30. So this is zero. And so this is 0.30, this first column, and we've done this in other videos, this goes up until the 10th place for our z-score, and then if we want to get to our 100th place, that's what these other columns give us. But we're at 0.30, so we're going to be in this row...
Standard normal table for proportion between values AP Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
But we're at 0.30, so we're going to be in this row, and our 100th place is right over here, it's a zero. So this is the proportion that is less than $768. So 0.6179. So 0.6179. So now let's do the same exercise, but do it for the proportion that's below $624. The z-score for 624 is going to be equal to 624 minus the m...
Standard normal table for proportion between values AP Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
So 0.6179. So now let's do the same exercise, but do it for the proportion that's below $624. The z-score for 624 is going to be equal to 624 minus the mean of 750, all of that over 60. And so what is that going to be? I'll get my calculator out for this one, don't want to make a careless error. 624 minus 750 is equal ...

Standard normal table for proportion between values AP Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
So that lower bound is 2.1 standard deviations below the mean, or you could say it has a z-score of negative 2.1, is equal to negative 2.1. And so to figure out the proportion that is less than that, this red area right over here, we go back to our z-table. And we'd actually go to the first part of the z-table. So same...

So same idea, but this starts at negative, a z-score of negative 3.4, 3.4 standard deviations below the mean.

So this is going to...
Standard normal table for proportion between values AP Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
So this is going to get us, let's see, negative 2.1, there we go. And so we are negative 2.1, and it's negative 2.10, so we have zero hundredths. So we're gonna be right here on our table.

It is going to be P times one minus P. Actually, that's the variance. We want to take the square root of that to get the standard deviation.

If 60% of the balls here are yellow, and if you were to take a sample, or if you were to take 10 trials, so if you were to take 10 balls one at a time, they have to be independent, so you keep looking at them and then replacing them, but if you took 10, then you would expect that six of them would be yellow. They're no...

And so each of these are, each of these 10 gumballs, what we see, they are going to be independent. I...

I'm gonna put them in quotes by the 10% rule. And so in that situation, we can make this claim or we can feel good that this claim is roughly true. And so let's say for that first sample that we do, our sample proportion is equal to 0.3. So three of our gumballs just happened, three of our 10 gumballs just happened to ...

So three of our gumballs just happened, three of our 10 gumballs just happened to be yellow. Then we do it again. So we take another sample. We calculate our sample proportion, the statistic again. Remember, it's trying to estimate our population parameter. And let's say that time it happens to be seven out of 10. And ...

We calculate our sample proportion, the statistic again. Remember, it's trying to estimate our population parameter. And let's say that time it happens to be seven out of 10. And we just keep doing that. And if we keep doing that and we plot it on a dot chart or dot distribution, I guess we could say, where our possibl...

And we just keep doing that. And if we keep doing that and we plot it on a dot chart or dot distribution, I guess we could say, where our possible outcomes, you could have zero out of 10, one out of 10, two, three, four, five, that's so half of them, six, seven, eight, nine, 10. So that would be all of them. And so you...

And so you could plot, okay, 0.3, one, two, three. That's one scenario where I got zero, where my sample proportion is 0.3. Then 0.7, that's one situation where I got a 0.7. And let's say I were to take another sample of 10 and I were to get 0.7, then you would plot that over here. And if you kept taking samples and ke...

And let's say I were to take another sample of 10 and I were to get 0.7, then you would plot that over here. And if you kept taking samples and kept calculating these sample proportions and you kept plotting it here, you would get a better and better and better approximation for the sampling distribution of the samplin...

What is going to be the mean of this sampling distribution? And what is going to be the standard deviation? Well, we can derive that from what we see right over here. The mean of our sampling distribution of our sample proportion is just going to be equal to the mean of our random variable X divided by N. It's just goi...

The mean of our sampling distribution of our sample proportion is just going to be equal to the mean of our random variable X divided by N. It's just going to be the mean of X divided by N, which is equal to what? Well, the mean of X is N times P. This is N times P. You divided it by N, you're going to get P. And that ...

And so this is also a good indicator that this is going to be a reasonably unbiased estimator. Now let's think about the standard deviation for our sample proportion. Well, we can just view that as our standard deviation of our binomial random variable X divided by N. So this is going to be equal to the square root of ...

Hashim obtained a random sample of students and noticed a positive linear relationship between their ages and their backpack weights. A 95% confidence interval for the slope of the regression line was 0.39 plus or minus 0.23. Hashim wants to use this interval to test the null hypothesis that the true slope of the popul...

Assume that all conditions for inference have been met. So given the information that we just have about what Hashim is doing, what would be his conclusion? Would he reject the null hypothesis, which would suggest the alternative, or would he be unable to reject the null hypothesis? Well, let's just think about this a ...

Well, let's just think about this a little bit. We have a 95% confidence interval. Let me write this down. So our 95% confidence, confidence interval, could write it like this, or you could say that it goes from 0.39 minus 0.23, so that'd be 0.16, so it goes from 0.16 until 0.39 plus 0.23 is going to be what? 0.62. Now...

So our 95% confidence, confidence interval, could write it like this, or you could say that it goes from 0.39 minus 0.23, so that'd be 0.16, so it goes from 0.16 until 0.39 plus 0.23 is going to be what? 0.62. Now what a 95% confidence interval tells us is that 95% of the time that we take a sample and we construct a 9...

But in this hypothesis test, remember, we are assuming that the true population parameter is equal to zero, and that does not overlap with this confidence interval. So assuming, let me write this down, assuming null hypothesis is true, null hypothesis is true, we are in the less than or equal to 5% chance of situations...
Using a confidence interval to test slope More on regression AP Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
And that's exactly what's happening here. And this null hypothesis value is nowhere even close to overlapping, it's over 16 hundredths below the low end of this bound. And so because of that, we would reject the null hypothesis. Reject the null hypothesis, which suggests the alternative, which suggests the alternative ...

The male and female heights are each normally distributed. We independently, randomly select a man and a woman. What is the probability that the woman is taller than the man? So I encourage you to pause this video and think through it and I'll give you a hint. What if we were to define the random variable m as equal to...

So I encourage you to pause this video and think through it and I'll give you a hint. What if we were to define the random variable m as equal to the height of a randomly selected man, height of random man. What if we defined the random variable w to be equal to the height of a random woman, woman, and we defined a thi...

So let me call this d for difference. And it is equal to the difference in height between a randomly selected man and a randomly selected woman. So d, the random variable d, is equal to the random variable m minus the random variable w. So the first two are clearly normally distributed. They tell us that right over her...

They tell us that right over here. The male and female heights are each normally distributed. And we also know, or you're about to know, that the difference of random variables that are each normally distributed is also going to be normally distributed. So given this, can you think about how to tackle this question? Th...

So given this, can you think about how to tackle this question? The probability that the woman is taller than the man. All right, now let's work through this together and to help us visualize, I'll draw the normal distribution curves for these three random variables. So this first one is for the variable m. And so righ...

So this first one is for the variable m. And so right here in the middle, that is the mean of m. And we know that this is going to be equal to 178 centimeters. We'll assume everything is in centimeters. We also know that it has a standard deviation of eight centimeters. So for example, if this is one standard deviation...
Example Analyzing the difference in distributions Random variables AP Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
So for example, if this is one standard deviation above, this is one standard deviation below, this point right over here would be eight centimeters more than 178, so that would be 186. And this would be eight centimeters below that, so this would be 170 centimeters. So this is for the random variable m. Now let's thin...

And one standard deviation above the mean is going to be six centimeters above the mean. The standard deviation is six, six centimeters. So this would be minus six, is to go to one standard deviation below the mean. Now let's think about the difference between the two, the random variable d. So let me think about this ...

Now let's think about the difference between the two, the random variable d. So let me think about this a little bit. The random variable d, the mean of d is going to be equal to the differences in the means of these random variables. So it's going to be equal to the mean of m, the mean of m, minus the mean of w, minus...
