have u got any more like that
i knew 3 (i) 68% lies within mean-Sd and mean+Sd
(ii) 95% lies within mean-2Sd and mean+2Sd
(iii) 99% lies within mean-3Sd and mean+3Sd
I didn't use any formula, its just an assumption. Thats what we used to do in Olevel Statistics, so yeah.. Thanks for sharing these parameters though! :)

ahh yes i have to review all formulaes i dont know y stats makes me feel after i found out the answer that y didnt i write it it was sooo easy :/
Just dont worry! This isnt something I knew.. It was just an assumption. Except, I was sure of it cz a similar question came when I appeared for Olevel Statistics :)

The probability of getting more than 1002mm, P(X>1002), is 225/900 = 1/4
Therefore, P(X < 1002) = 1 - 1/4 = 0.75

From the probability table, z = 0.674 (When probability is 0.75).

Standaridising,
(1002 - µ)/8 = 0.674

After doing the calculations, you'll get µ = 997.

Hope that helped :)
Thank you so much :)

first one is wrong its actually 2/3 and through calcularion simple accuracy marks may b lost

it's 0.68268 to be exact. so yeah 68.3% is more accurate..

-1<z<1 = 1 SD within the mean..

2Phi(1)-1

0.68268 Answer

Can u please give me the answer for these questions..Thank u

1.)Give an example for a statement of Fact and write down the data that could be extracted from it. What are the variables in your data? Point out a qualitative variable, a discrete variable in your data and state whether they assume continuous values or discrete values.

2.)Explain the following drawbacks in the application of stem and leaf diagram to a data set?
(a) Unsuitable for a single digit data set
(b) More meaningful if it is ordered
(c) Not useful if the stem assumes the same number
(d) Not suitable for large data sets
