Element: The entity on which data are collected
|
Population: A collection of all the elements of interest
|
|
Sample: A subset of the population
|
Sampled population: The population from which the sample is collected
|
|
Frame: a list of elements that the sample will be collected from
|
|
|
Populations generated by an ongoing process are referred to as Infinite Populations: parts being manufactured, transactions occurring at a bank, calls at a technical help desk, customers entering a store
|
Each element selected must come from the population of interest, Each element is selected independently.

Expected value of π₯Β Μ
: E(π₯Β Μ
) = u
|
Standard Deviation of π₯Β Μ
:
|
|
Finite Population: ππ₯Β Μ
=βπβπ/(πβ1)) (π/βπ)
|
Infinite Population: ππ₯Β Μ
=π/βπ

|
Z-value at the upper endpoint of interval=largest value-u/ππ₯Β Μ
|
Area under the curve to the left of the upper endpoint=largest value-u/ππ₯Β Μ
on the z table
|
|
Z-value at the lower endpoint of the interval=smallest value-u/ππ₯Β Μ
|
Area under the curve to the left of the lower endpoint=smallest value-u/ππ₯Β Μ
on the z table
|
|
Probability=area under curve to left of upper endpoint-area under curve to left of lower endpoint
|
When selecting a different sample number, expected value remains the same. When the sample size is increased the standard error is decreased.
|
|
Finite Populations are often defined by lists: Organization Member Roster, Credit Card Account Numbers, Inventory Product Numbers
|
A simple random sample of size n from a finite population of size N: a sample selected such that each possible sample of size n has the same probability of being selected
|
|
Point Estimation is a form of statistical inference.
|
We use the data from the sample to compute a value of a sample statistic that serves as an estimate of a population parameter.
|
|
π₯Β Μ
is the point estimator of the population mean
|
s is the point estimator of the population standard deviation
|
|
πΒ Μ
is the point estimator of the population proportion
|
π₯Β Μ
=(βπ₯π )/n
|
|
π =ββ(π₯π-π₯Β Μ
)^2/n-1
|
πΒ Μ
=x/n

Finite Population: ππΒ Μ

Infinite Population: ππΒ Μ
