Description
Elementary Statistics: A Step by Step Approach was written as an aid in the beginning statistics course to students whose mathematical background is limited to basic algebra. The book follows s a nontheoretical approach without formal proofs, explaining concepts intuitively and supporting them with abundant examples. The applications span a broad range of topics certain to appeal to the interests of students of diverse backgrounds, and they include problems in business, sports, health, architecture, education, entertainment, political science, psychology, history, criminal justice, the environment, transportation, physical sciences, demographics, and travel and leisure.

Global ChangesChapter Changes

  • Replaced over 100 examples with new or updated ones and over 550 new or updated exercises.
  • Updated the Technology Tips sections.
  • Renumbered statistical tables in the Appendix A.
  • Most exercises include the TI answers along with the answers that use the tables in the book.
  • Chapter 1
    • New Statistics Today example.
    • New statistical examples to introduce how statistics are used today.
  • Chapter 2
    • Updated Statistics Today example.
  • Chapter 5
    • Section 5-3 now includes solving problems using the combination formula in addition to the binomial formula.
  • Chapters 7, 8, and 9
    • These chapters have been revised to allow professors who want to teach proportions before means to do so. They should cover the first sections of these chapters and then skip to the proportions sections, and then do the means sections. For those who prefer to teach means before proportions, just follow the sequence of the book.
  • Chapters 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12
    • These chapters allow professors to teach hypothesis testing using the P-value. It should be noted that some P-values obtained by technology may differ from those in the book since the calculations of P-values depend on the number of decimal places the technology uses to compute the test values.
  • Chapter 14
    • New section on Big Data

描述

《Elementary Statistics: A Step by Step Approach》是為數學背景僅限於基礎代數的初學統計學的學生而撰寫的輔助教材。本書採用非理論的方法,不涉及正式的證明,以直觀的方式解釋概念並通過豐富的例子加以支持。應用範圍涵蓋廣泛的主題,肯定能吸引不同背景的學生的興趣,其中包括商業、體育、健康、建築、教育、娛樂、政治科學、心理學、歷史、刑事司法、環境、交通、物理科學、人口統計和旅遊休閒等問題。



全球變化章節變化


  • 用新的或更新的例子替換了100多個例子,並新增或更新了550多個練習題。

  • 更新了技術提示部分。

  • 重新編號了附錄A中的統計表格。

  • 大多數練習題包括使用書中表格的答案以及使用TI計算器的答案。

  • 第1章

    • 新增了《今日統計》的例子。

    • 新增了介紹統計學如何應用於當今社會的統計學例子。



  • 第2章

    • 更新了《今日統計》的例子。



  • 第5章

    • 第5-3節現在除了使用二項式公式外,還包括使用組合公式解決問題。



  • 第7、8和9章

    • 這些章節已經修訂,以便教授希望先教授比例再教授平均值的教授進行教學。他們應該先涵蓋這些章節的前幾節,然後跳到比例節,然後再進行平均值節。對於希望先教授平均值再教授比例的教授,只需按照書中的順序進行教學。



  • 第8、9、10、11和12章

    • 這些章節允許教授使用P值進行假設檢驗。需要注意的是,由於計算P值取決於技術使用的小數位數,因此技術獲得的P值可能與書中的不同。



  • 第14章

    • 新增了關於大數據的部分
