  • 👉 Learn how to find the variance and standard deviation of a set of data. The variance of a set of data is a measure of spread/variation which measures how far a set of numbers is spread out from their average value.
    The standard deviation of a set of data is a measure of spread/variation which measures how the set of numbers is spread out from each other. The standard deviation is given by the square root of the variance.
    To find the variance, we first calculate the mean of the set of data. Next, we subtract the mean from each number in the data set and square the results. Then, we take the average of the squared differences.

    I have enrolled in Sophomore level (University) statistics, just to drop it, like 4 times, because I knew, before the midterm, that I was not going to be able to pass it. I finally did, with a C. Not my best work. I am an A/B student. Years later, I am back in school for a second degree, and I am having to re-take statistics because the statistics I have credit for is "statistics/business majors" and now I am a pre-nursing student, so they are making me take regular statistics (not for business majors), which I think is ridiculous, considering its the same material, same book, same chapters are covered, but I digress. I had a melt down when I found out I would have to take this class again, especially as it is the last class I have to take to enter nursing school. If I had access to these videos way back when, I could have passed statistics the first time, with an A. I have a A in my class now, and am breezing through, with EASE. This class used to keep me up at night, stressed beyond belief. I am actually enjoying it now. It amazes me, the difference it makes, when you have a GOOD teacher. I cannot thank you enough for your time and effort put into this channel. You have saved me from a guaranteed ulcer.

    • @mursaleenakhtar970
      @mursaleenakhtar970 4 ปีที่แล้ว +25

      He is right because he is dealing with total population which is n=10 and we use n-1 where we are drawing sample from the population. For more brief lets take as example
      If we want to measure height of one class of 15 students and we are taking all the students so it means we are taking whole population (Class of 15 students). Here we use 'n' not 'n-1'.
      If we want to measure height of one all students in a university which are 1500 students and we are taking only 15 students so it means we are taking sample from whole population. Here we use 'n-1' not 'n'.
      Hope explanation will assist you.
