    5:32 if A = 0.57 and B = 0.43
    (A*100)*(B)^2+(B*100)*(A)^2
    ABB*100+BAA*100
    (AB*100)*(A+B)
    AB*100
    s^2 = AB
    s^2 = p(1-p)
    This is just me taking note btw

    I do not understand why you have taken the standard deviation of the sample as standard deviation of population and then divided it by root of n to get standard deviation of sample

      He divided it by root of n to get standard deviation of the MEAN of the sample.
      It is a little unclear in this video, and will not make sense if you haven't seen the previous videos

      It’s called standard error
      I think you’re confusing Variance & SD

      EXACTLY, the value 0.5 which we get here is standard deviation of sample, which will be equal to standar deviation of population/root(n) but i also have doubt why he considered the sample sd as population sd.

    a sample mean (x bar) is calculated from the population, and sampling distribution of sampling mean (mu of x bar) is formed by many sample mean (x bar) which is come from population, am i correct ? is it also same logic for variance?

  • @delcapslock100
    @delcapslock100 11 років тому

    Actually he qualifies that statement by saying he is "reasonably confident" that there is a 95% chance that the true mean is in that interval, and he makes the point over and over that this is really a best guess, because we don't know the true standard deviation of the sampling distribution.

    The fact that you replace σ with s seems risky to me. For example when you study normal or not normal population and you don't know σ you use the same notation to estimate σ through s but you never use an arithmetic value for s (later in this occasion you go to your t scores and get it done). It's like saying I got a sample and I found this standard deviation so I am gonna use it to solve my problem. With the same logic I found the sample mean so since it estimates the population mean

    Hello Sir, If I take A = 1 and B = 0 then mean will get reversed right? In a problem how should I decide whether A = 1 or B =1?

    Nice description -
    Probability and statistics on Khan Academy: We dare you to go through a day in which you never consider or use probability. Did you check the weather forecast? Busted! Did you decide to go through the drive through lane vs walk in? Busted again! We are constantly creating hypotheses, making predictions, testing, and analyzing. Our lives are full of probabilities! Statistics is related to probability because much of the data we use when determining probable outcomes comes from our understanding of statistics. In these tutorials, we will cover a range of topics, some which include: independent events, dependent probability, combinatorics, hypothesis testing, descriptive statistics, random variables, probability distributions, regression, and inferential statistics. So buckle up and hop on for a wild ride. We bet you're going to be challenged AND love it!

    8:22 .. when he talks about sampling distribution of the sample mean. The sample size is 100 as well as the number of samples are also 100, right ? SO each sample has size of 100 and there are 100 such samples .. some one please calrify

      @@judahdsouza9196 no i think the sample size is 100 and he repeated this survey 100 times .. this explains what he has mentioned in the video 'it's going to have 100 possible values.
      This can take on 100 different values here.
      Really anything between 0 and 1.
      But I'll draw it kind of continuous because it would be
      hard for me to draw 100 different bars."

    @rogersyversen3633 6 років тому +5

    I dont intuitively understand how that formula creates the mean out of two categorical variables. it wholy based on how many B's you get no matter how many A's you get. how can this determine the percentage between the two?

    • @judahdsouza9196
      @judahdsouza9196 4 роки тому +1

      Roger Syversen because there are only two variables. think about it. the absence of A's is directly related to the number of B's.

    Great like always Sal,
    i was just thinking about what if you post under downloads of the khanacademy home page just the screenshots from Paint of all yours videos. In that way i think we could have a quick preview of all the Info in that lecture and we would not always need to play the whole video when just refreshing the memory ;) . I hope you get it what i mean. You are just great!!! Thanks a lot !

    At 5:30, why is the sample variance divided by (n-1) instead of n? In the most recent videos, the standard error for the sample mean was simply divided by n. Is Bernoulli different? Why is it (n-1?

    • @dazzlerflower
      @dazzlerflower 9 років тому

      In a random sample taken out of a population, we don't know if the sample that we have taken is unfair and so it is more accurate to use (n-1) instead of n. He made a video on that some time ago....

    actually your wording is a bit incorrect, you don't say there is a 95% chance that it is in that intervall, you say that you are confident in 95 of 100 times that it is in that intervall - it has nothing to do with chance in a confidence intervall!

    Hi sal there is a bug in the calculation for variance you are dividing by n-1 you should use formula from prev video" p1(1-p1)/100" because this way of estimating sample variance will fail. It should be like where p1 = 0.43 then 0.43(1-0.43)/100 = 0.002451 not 0.2475

    Can you please tell me that from the video mean and variance of bernouli distribution to video margin of error you are taking value 0(zero) for unfavourable and 1 for favourable, sir I dont understand this can you please give me answer.......

    This question has popped up several times when I've been watching these videos. Why can you say that μx = μ = p
    I agree that μx would approximate μ = p depentent on the size of the n. Wouldn't rather be μx ≈ μ = p?

    isnt it easier to solve for the standard distribution of the proportion rather than the variance. I cant understand why you keep explaining this through the variance and then back solving for the standard divination in order to use the concept practically.
