Summary
Business statistics covers how to handle data in business. Students get practice in working with data sets, calculating probabilities and interpreting results.
Handling data sets
A data set has elements, variables and observations. Variables can be categorical or quantitative. Students count these and name the variables.
Frequency distributions
Students make frequency distributions and bar charts. They also make relative frequency distributions and pie charts. They use these to show how often things happen.
Measures of central tendency
Students find the median, mode and percentiles of data. They explain what these measures mean. They work out the middle 95.4% of data.
Probability calculations
Students work out probabilities of different events. They use these to find out if events are mutually exclusive or independent. They use the binomial probability function.
Key terms
- Median
- The middle value in a set of numbers.
- Mode
- The number that appears most often in a set.
- Percentile
- The value below which a given percentage of observations fall.
- Mutually exclusive
- Events that cannot happen at the same time.
- Independent events
- Events where the outcome of one does not affect the other.
- Binomial probability function
- A formula to find the probability of getting a certain number of successes in a certain number of trials.
Questions this document helps with
- When are events mutually exclusive?
- How do you find the median of a data set?
- What does the mode tell you about a data set?
