And we could take our calculator out. It's going to be the square root of what I just typed in. I could do second answer. It'll be the last entry here. So the square root of that is, and I'll just round, it's approximately equal to 3.07. Now I'm going to tell you something very counterintuitive. Or at least initially i...

It'll be the last entry here. So the square root of that is, and I'll just round, it's approximately equal to 3.07. Now I'm going to tell you something very counterintuitive. Or at least initially it's counterintuitive, but hopefully you'll appreciate this over time. This we've already talked about in some depth. Peopl...
Sample standard deviation and bias Probability and Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
Or at least initially it's counterintuitive, but hopefully you'll appreciate this over time. This we've already talked about in some depth. People have even created simulations to show that this is an unbiased estimate of population variance when we divide it by n minus 1. And that's a good starting point if we're goin...
Sample standard deviation and bias Probability and Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
And that's a good starting point if we're going to take the square root of anything. But it actually turns out that because the square root function is nonlinear, that this sample standard deviation, and this is how it tends to be defined, sample standard deviation, that this sample standard deviation, which is the squ...
Sample standard deviation and bias Probability and Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
Because the square root function is nonlinear, it turns out that this is not an unbiased estimate of the true population standard deviation. And I encourage people to make simulations of that if they're interested. But then you might say, OK, well, we went through great pains to divide by n minus 1 here in order to get...
Sample standard deviation and bias Probability and Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
Why don't we go through similar pains and somehow figure out a formula for an unbiased estimate of the population standard deviation? And the reason why that's difficult is to unbiased the sample variance, we just have to divide by n minus 1 instead of n. And that worked for any probability distribution for our populat...

The mean emission of all engines of a new design needs to be below 20 parts per million if the design is to meet new emission requirements. 10 engines are manufactured for testing purposes, and the emission level of each is determined. The emission data is, and they give us 10 data points for the 10 test engines, and I...

The sample mean is 17.17, and the standard deviation of these 10 data points right here is 2.98, the sample standard deviation. Does the data supply sufficient evidence to conclude that this type of engine meets the new standard? Assume we are willing to risk a type 1 error with a probability of 0.01, and we'll touch o...
Small sample hypothesis test Inferential statistics Probability and Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
Before we do that, let's just define what our null hypothesis and our alternative hypothesis are going to be. Our null hypothesis can be that we don't meet the standards, that we just barely don't meet the standards, that the mean of our new engines is exactly 20 parts per million, and you essentially want the best pos...
Small sample hypothesis test Inferential statistics Probability and Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
To see if the data that we have is sufficient, what we're going to do is assume that this is true. Given that this is true, if we assume this is true, and the probability of this occurring, and the probability of getting a sample mean of that, is less than 1%, then we will reject the null hypothesis. We are going to re...
Small sample hypothesis test Inferential statistics Probability and Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
Notice, if we do it this way, there will be less than a 1% chance that we are making a type 1 error. A type 1 error is that we're rejecting it even though it's true. Here, there's only a 1% chance, or less than a 1% chance, that we will reject it if it is true. The next thing we have to think about is what type of dist...
Small sample hypothesis test Inferential statistics Probability and Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
The next thing we have to think about is what type of distribution we should think about. The first thing that rings in my brain is we only have 10 samples here. We have a small sample size right over here. We're going to be dealing with a t distribution and a t statistic. With that said, let's think of it this way. We...

We're going to be dealing with a t distribution and a t statistic. With that said, let's think of it this way. We can come up with a t statistic that is based on these statistics right over here. The t statistic is going to be 17.17, our sample mean, minus the assumed population mean, minus 20 parts per million, over o...
Small sample hypothesis test Inferential statistics Probability and Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
The t statistic is going to be 17.17, our sample mean, minus the assumed population mean, minus 20 parts per million, over our sample standard deviation, 2.98. This is really the definition of the t statistic. Hopefully, we see now that this really comes from a z score. The t distribution is kind of an engineered versi...
Small sample hypothesis test Inferential statistics Probability and Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
The t distribution is kind of an engineered version of the normal distribution using t statistics. 2.98 divided by the square root of our sample size.

They will give a positive t value over here, some...
Small sample hypothesis test Inferential statistics Probability and Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
You can see that we know t distributions are symmetric around their mean, so whatever value this is, if this number is 2, then this value is just going to be negative 2. We just have to keep that in mind, but the t tables actually help us figure out this value. Let's figure out a t value where the probability of gettin...

So n is equal to 30. And from that, he calculates a sample proportion. It looks like seven out of the 30 are they want the vegetarian option. And he's going to determine some confidence level and then construct a confidence interval. But remember the conditions that we've talked about in previous videos. The first thin...

And he's going to determine some confidence level and then construct a confidence interval. But remember the conditions that we've talked about in previous videos. The first thing is we have to be confident that is this a random sample? So that would be the random condition. And that's what choice A is telling us. The ...

So that would be the random condition. And that's what choice A is telling us. The data is a random sample from the population of interest. Do we know that? Well, it tells us in the passage here, he randomly selects 30 of the total seniors. So I guess we'll take their word for it. We don't know his methodology of what ...

Do we know that? Well, it tells us in the passage here, he randomly selects 30 of the total seniors. So I guess we'll take their word for it. We don't know his methodology of what he considers random, but we'll take their word for it that yes, this has been met. The data is a random, random sample. If it said he sample...

We don't know his methodology of what he considers random, but we'll take their word for it that yes, this has been met. The data is a random, random sample. If it said he sampled the football team, well, that would not have been a random sample. The next condition here, it looks all mathematical, but this is really th...

The next condition here, it looks all mathematical, but this is really the normal condition. And the idea behind the normal condition is that in order to construct these confidence intervals, we're assuming that the sampling distribution of the sample proportions is roughly normal. And it is not skewed to the right or ...

And so right here it says, look, the sample size times our sample proportion has to be greater than or equal to 10. Or our sample size times one minus our sample proportion has to be greater than or equal to 10. Well, another way to think about this is our successes, our successes in our sample need to be greater than ...
Conditions for confidence intervals worked examples AP Statistics Khan Academy.mp3
And our failures need to be greater than or equal to 10. Well, how many successes were there? There were seven, seven. And you could even say, look, our n is 30 times our sample proportion is seven over 30, which is going to be seven. So our successes is less than 10. So actually we violate the normal condition. And on...

And you could even say, look, our n is 30 times our sample proportion is seven over 30, which is going to be seven. So our successes is less than 10. So actually we violate the normal condition. And once again, this is a rule of thumb, but this is telling us that our actual sampling distribution might be skewed. Rememb...

And once again, this is a rule of thumb, but this is telling us that our actual sampling distribution might be skewed. Remember, this is just based on one sample, what we're able to figure out. This is one sample z interval. We might be wrong, but we wouldn't feel good that we're meeting the normal condition here. So I...

We might be wrong, but we wouldn't feel good that we're meeting the normal condition here. So I would rule this one out. Individual observations can be considered independent. Well, if he randomly selected people with replacement, then they could be independent. Or if the people he is selecting, if his sample size is l...

Well, if he randomly selected people with replacement, then they could be independent. Or if the people he is selecting, if his sample size is less than 10% of the total population, then it could be considered independent, even though it wouldn't be perfectly independent. But we see here that he sampled 30 people out o...

And so I'm randomly sampling a bunch of people, measuring their height, measuring their weight, and then for each person, I'm plotting a point that represents their height and weight combination. So for example, let's say I measure someone who is 60 inches tall, that would be five feet tall, and they weigh 100 pounds. ...

So that point right over there is the point 60 comma 100. One way to think about it, height we could say is being measured on our x-axis or plotted along our x-axis, and then weight along our y-axis. And so this point from this person is the point 60 comma 100 representing 60 inches, 100 pounds. And so so far I've done...
Introduction to residuals and least squares regression.mp3
And so so far I've done it for one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine people. And I could keep going, but even with this, I could say, well look, it looks like there's a roughly linear relationship here. It looks like it's positive, that generally speaking, as height increases, so does weight. Maybe I cou...

Maybe I could try to put a line that can approximate this trend. So let me try to do that. So this is my line tool. I could think about a bunch of lines. Something like this seems like it would be, you'd be, most of the data is below the line, so that seems like it's not right. I could do something like, I could do som...

Most of the data seems to be above the line. And so, and once again, I'm just eyeballing it here. In the future you will learn better methods of finding a better fit, but this, something like this, and I'm just eyeballing it, looks about right. So that line, you could view this as a regression line. We could view this ...

So that line, you could view this as a regression line. We could view this as y equals mx plus b, where we would have to figure out the slope and the y-intercept, and we could figure it out based on what I just drew, or we could even think of this as weight. Weight is equal to our slope times height, times height plus ...
