Interpretation of Data

23
Q

24
Q

A variable obtained by measuring objects or its attributes.

A

Continuous Variable

25
it is a knowledge gained through communication, study, investigation, research, and instruction.
Information
26
consists of information coming from observations, counts, measurements, or responses.
Data
27
refers to numerical information obtained from counting or measuring that can be manipulated by any fundamental operation.
Quantitative Data
28
refers to descriptive attributes that cannot be subjected to mathematical operations.
Qualitative Data
29
refers to the totality of all the elements or persons in which one has an interest at a particular time.
Population
30
is a part of a population determined by sampling procedure. It is usually denoted by n.
Sample
31
is any statistical information or attribute taken from a population. It is a true value or actual statistics since its source is the population itself.
Parameter
32
is a specific factor, property, or characteristic of a population or a sample that differentiates a sample or group of samples from another group.
Variable
33
is a variable that can be obtained by counting.
Discrete variable
34
is a variable that can be obtained by measuring objects or attributes.
Continuous variable
35
statistical method concerned with describing properties and characteristics of a set of data.
Descriptive Statistics
36
is a statistical method concerned with analyzing small data leading to predictions, inferences, interpretations, or conclusions about the entire population.
Inferential Statistics
37
individual in a population, often called subjects if the population consists of people
Unit
38
It is the statistical symbol which abbreviates the sum of the quantities in a given range.
Sigma Notation
