Module 5 Vocab review

The number that the relative frequencies get closer and closer to as more and more trials are performed.

the process of drawing conclusions about population parameters using simple statistics

the value given by the frequency of the event divided by the total number of trials

A mathematical representation of a chance process

the mean ( average ) that is calculated from a sample

Consists of observing a single outcome of a chance process

The number of trials for which the event occurred in performing a fixed number of trials of a chance process

Any process that is repeatable and results in 1 of 2 or more well-defined outcomes each time it is repeated

the number between 0-1 that measures the chance that an event will occur.

the use of a random number generator to generate outcomes that are consistent within a given probability model

the set of all possible outcomes from a sample

A subset of outcomes of the sample space

a sample selected by a process that ensures every member of the population has the same chance of being included

a model that assigns the same probability for all simple events of a sample space

any entire collection of people, animals, plants, or things that someone is interested in learning about.

any subset of a population
