Q3 Statistics Lesson7

This document covers the concepts of percentile and t-distribution in statistics. It explains that percentiles indicate the relative standing of a value within a dataset, dividing it into 100 equal parts, while the t-distribution is used for small sample sizes and resembles the normal distribution. The document also includes properties of the t-distribution, t-score calculations, and practical exercises for understanding these concepts.

7.A:
PERCENTILE
PERCENTILE

It is a statistical measure that


indicates the relative standing
of a value within a dataset.

It represents the percentage of


values that fall below a given
number.
PERCENTILE

It divides the dataset in 100


equal parts where is the
median.
PERCENTILE

Formula:
Percentile, Decile and
Quartile
Percentile: divides the dataset into
100 equal parts
Decile: divides the dataset into 10
equal parts
Quartile: divides the dataset into 4
equal parts
PERCENTILE

Imagine students scores in an


exam:

-If a student is in the 85th


percentile, they performed
better than 85% of the class.
7.B:
T-
DISTRIBUTION
T - DISTRIBUTION

The t-distribution (also called


Student’s t-distribution) is a family of
distributions that look almost identical
to the normal distribution curve, only a
bit shorter and stouter.

It was developed by William Sealy


Gosset (1908).
T - DISTRIBUTION

The t-distribution is used instead of the


normal distribution when you have
small samples.

The larger the sample size, the more


the t distribution looks like the normal
distribution. In fact, for sample sizes
larger than 20, the distribution is
PROPERTIES OF T -
DISTRIBUTION
 Like the normal distribution, the t-distribution
has a smooth shape.
 Like the normal distribution, the t-distribution is
symmetric. If you think about folding it in half at
the mean, each side will be the same.
 Like a standard normal distribution (or z-
distribution), the t-distribution has a mean of zero.
 The normal distribution assumes that the
population standard deviation is known. The t-
distribution does not make this assumption.
PROPERTIES OF T -
DISTRIBUTION
 The t-distribution is defined by the
degrees of freedom. These are related to
the sample size.
 The t-distribution is most useful for small
sample sizes, when the population standard
deviation is not known, or both.
 As the sample size increases, the t-
distribution becomes more similar to a

t-score formula:
Let’s Try it!

Compute the t-score given:

Sample Mean = 95
Population Mean = 83
Sample Std Dev = 5
Sample Size = 9
Degree of Freedom (df)

This refers to the maximum number of


logically independent values which vary in
the data sample.

It is a number of independent values or


quantities that can vary in a statistical
calculation without violating any constraints.
Below is the t-table which you can use to find the
t-value
Let’s Try it!

n = 7 and has an area (𝛼) equal to 0.05.


1. Identify the t-value whose number of samples

and has 𝛼 = 0.01.


2. Find the t-value whose degree of freedom is 20
Let’s Try it!
3. Identify the t-value of the ff percentiles
given the number of samples.

a. 95th percentile, N= 30
b. 90th percentile, N=2

Life’s PERCENTILE teach us that
being above average is good, but
striving for excellence in our own
way is even better.
