Reasons for drawing a Sample
1.A sample is less time consuming than a census.
2.A sample is less costly to administer than census.
3.A sample is less cumbersome and more practical to
administer than a census.
4.A sample provides higher quality data than a census.
observations.
Median - It is the middle observation
5
They give some reference of
centering but we need to
determine how the numbers
are spread.
Are same runs scored in every over?
Are all incomes higher?
Statistics
help us describe
understand variability.

Standard deviation (ó) :
The amount by which each reading is most
likely to deviate from the average . “Or” how far
a known percentage of the distribution lies
from the mean.
What is the practical use of standard
deviation?
1. Mean tells us the average value of the
distribution and standard deviation
indicates the scatter.
2. We can use it to estimate how many of
our values will come within a certain
range.
To calculate SD there are six steps
1. Calculate the average of all the observations.
2. Subtract this average from each observations.
3. Square each number obtained in step 2.
4. Find the sum of all numbers obtained in step 3.
5. Divide the number obtained instep 4 by number of
observations minus one.
6. Take the square root of the number obtained in 5.
