HOUSTON COMMUNITY COLLEGE SYSTEM - NORTHWEST COLLEGE COURSE SYLLABUS - MATH 1342-0032 ELEMENTARY STATISTICS SECTION(CRN) 77556, SPRING 2014, JAN.13-MAY.11,2014 KATY NORTHWEST CAMPUS RM 211, 8:30 to 10:00PM TuTh INSTRUCTOR: OFFICE HRS: Deborah Bourgeois None EMAIL: PHONE : (emergencies: [email protected] Course Description: Topics include histograms, probability, binomial and normal distributions, and their applications, correlation and prediction, and tests of statistical hypotheses. Prerequisite: MATH 1314. This course is intended for students primarily in health sciences and business rather than math or science majors. It consists of concepts, ideas and utilization using statistics rather than a theory course. Textbook: Elementary Statistics, Picturing the World, by Ron Larson & Betsy Farber., Prentice Hall Publishers, Fifth Edition, 2011. A solutions Manual (comments and/or solutions to odd problems) is available and a CD. A formula sheet is also included which you can use on tests and the Final Exam. If you buy a used book the formula sheet may not be there, I will print out a copy of it for you. A CALCULATOR WILL BE REQUIRED. A regular or statistical model. Grading Policy: 90-100% - A, 80-89% - B, 70-79% - C, 60-69% - D Below 59 - F STUDENT EVALUATION: 1. There will be 3 Exams (There are NO MAKE UP EXAMS). Exam will be used for that grade. 2. A comprehensive final exam. IF you miss a test, the Final The Semester grade will be determined by the following weighing system: Exams’ average and 30% for Final Exam. 70% for three Attendance: After 12.5% absences (4 classes MW) the instructor can withdraw the students unless notified of extenuating circumstances. After 6 W`s you can`t get a degree so please watch this. You can now withdraw yourself online at : https://hccsaweb.hccs.edu:8080/psp/csprd/?cmd=login&languageCD=ENG. Please do this as I don`t want the responsibility of you getting your 6th W. Course Objectives: 1. Demonstrate knowledge of statistical terms. 2. Understand the difference between descriptive and inferential statistics. 3. Identify: types of data, measurement level of variables, and four basic sampling techniques. 4. Construct the relative frequency table from a given set of ungrouped data. 5. Know and use the different graphs: histogram, frequency polygon, Ogives, Pareto and pie to present data. 6. Compute the mean, median, mode, midrange, range, variance, and standard deviation. 7. Identify the various measures of position such as percentiles, deciles, and quartiles. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40. Find the total number of outcomes in a sequence of events using tree diagram and multiplication rule. Understand the use of permutation and combination rules. Determine sample spaces and find the probability of an event using classical probability. Find the probability of compound events using addition and/or multiplication rules. Find the conditional probability of an event. Construct a probability distribution for a random variable. Find the mean, variance, and expected value for a probability distribution function. the standard normal distribution shown on a given diagram. Find the exact probability for X successes in n trials of a binomial experiment. Find the mean, variance, and standard deviation for a binomial distribution. Identify the properties of the normal distribution. Find the area under the normal curve, given various z values. Find the probabilities for a normally distributed variable by transforming it into a standard normal variable. Find specific data values for given percentages using the standard normal distribution. Apply the central limit theorem to solve problems involving sample means. Use the normal approximation to compute probabilities for a binomial variable. Find a confidence interval for the mean with s is know or n = 30. Determining the minimum sample size for finding a confidence interval for the mean. Find the confidence interval for the mean when s is unknown and n =30. Find the confidence interval for proportion. Determine the minimum sample size for finding a confidence interval for a proportion. Find the confidence interval of variance and standard deviation. Understand the definitions used in hypothesis testing. State null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis. Understand the terms: type 1 error and type 11 error, test, criteria, level of significance, test statistic. Find the critical values for the z-test, t-test, ?-test. Test hypothesis for: menas (large and small sample), proportions, variance, and standard deviation. Draw scatter plot for a set of ordered pairs. Compute the correlation coefficient and the coefficient of determination. Compute the equation of the regression line by using the least square method. test a distribution for goodness of fit using chi-square. test independence and homogeneity using chi-square. Use the one-way ANOVA technique to determine if there is a significant difference among three or more means. Determine difference in means using the Scheffe’ or Tukey test if the null hypothesis is rejected in the ANOVA. (optional) DISABILITIES: Any student with a documented disability (e.g. physical, learning, psychiatric, vision, hearing, etc.) who needs to arrange reasonable accommodations must contact the Disability Services Office at the respective college at the beginning of each semester. Faculty are authorized to provide only the accommodations requested by the Disability Support Services Office. If you have any questions, please contact the disability counselor at your college.
