Statistics: Chapter 6 Video on Normal Model

1. Complete the chart:

Distribution
1.Discrete ones are like when you
can count the options, like rolling a
dice.
2.Continuous ones are for things
you can measure, like your height or
weight.
3.Examples are like flipping coins,
rolling dice, and bell-shaped curves.
4.They use math like PMF or PDF to
show the chances of different
outcomes.
5.These are like the special tools we
use in math to understand random
stuff and make predictions.
Model
1. Descriptive stats are like math tools to
quickly tell about a bunch of numbers.
2. Inferential models are like prediction
machines based on data we have.
3. Parametric models guess the shape of
the data, like saying it's like a bell or a
line.
4. Non-parametric models don't guess the
shape, they are more flexible.
5. Machine learning models learn
patterns from data to make predictions
or decisions.

2. What is the difference between a statistic and a parameter?

Statistic: A numeric summary of a sample.
Parameter: A numeric summary of the whole population.
3. Which type of numeric summary is represented using a Greek letter?

Parameter
4. Sometimes the 68-95-99.7 rule is called what?
The Empirical Rule.
5. Where is the Normal Model centered?
The Normal Model is centered at the mean (μ).

6. How can you visually locate the point on the normal model that is exactly 1 standard deviation from the mean?
The point of inflection, where the curve changes direction, indicates a point exactly 1 standard deviation
from the mean.
7. What does standard deviation tell you about your distribution?
Standard deviation measures the spread or dispersion of data points in a distribution.

8. In a Normal Model, what percent of data is within one standard deviation of the mean?
68%
9. In a Normal Model, what percent of data is within two standard deviations of the mean?
95%.
10. In a Normal Model, what percent of data is within three standard deviations of the mean?
99.7%.
