Unit 3 Summary Statistics (Descriptive Statistics) FPP Chapter 4 For one variable - Center of distribution "central value", "typical value" - Spread of distribution How variable are the values in a set of data? - Measure how many / what proportion of observations are above / below a given value. 3 -1 Stats W. 01
Summary Statistics Purposes: compact reporting easy comparison Important considerations: interpretable stable We will discuss: • how the statistics are defined • when each is (in)appropriate • how to interpret them • how to compute them • "guesstimation" techniques 3 -2 Stats

Aug 1 -22 the average consumption was 223. 7 million gallons per day. Aug 1 -25 the average consumption was 224. 4 million gallons per day. Q 1: Was the average consumption higher Aug 1 -22 or Aug 23 -25? Q 2: What was the total amount of water consumed Aug 23 -25? Q 3: What was the average daily consumption Aug 23 -25? 3 -12 Stats
Baseball Batting Averages Suppose batting average = (# hits / # at bats) x 1000 Before the game starts, a player has batting average = 250. - first at bat, strikes out - new batting average = 200 Q 1: How many times has this batter been up? Another player starts the game with batting average 500. After his first at bat, his new batting average is 524. Q 2: Did he get a hit? Q 3: How many times has this batter been up? 3 -13 Stats

Standard Deviation The STANDARD DEVIATION (SD) OF A DATA SET measures how far away numbers are from their average. Most entries on the list will be somewhere around one SD away from the average. Very few will be more than two or three SDs away. 3 -21 Stats
Interpreting the Standard Deviation * Roughly 68% of the entries on a list (roughly 2/3 of the entries) are within one SD of the average. * The other 32% (approximately 1/3) are further away. ** Roughly 95% (19 out of 20) are within two SDs of the average. ** The other 5% are further away. The 2/3 rule is true for most data sets. The 95% rule is true for many data sets, but not all. 3 -22 Stats

Delivery Times - 3 “The 2/3 Rule” says that Roughly 2/3 or 68% of the entries on a list are within one SD of the average. 108. 0 days Actually, in this data set, 34 out of 50 deliveries took between 59. 4 and 108. 0 days. 34/50 = 0. 68 = 68% “The 95% Rule” says that Roughly 95% of the entries on a list are within two SD’s of the average. 108. 0 days Actually, 49 out of 50 deliveries took between 35. 1 and 132. 3 days. 49/50 = 0. 98 = 98% 3 -25 Stats

Guesstimating the SD Middle 2/3 Rule 1. Locate the middle 2/3 of the data. 2. The range of the middle 2/3 of the data is approximately 2 SD's. So, 1/2 of this range is approximately 1 SD. 3 -27 Stats
Variance The variance of a list of numbers is the SD squared. That is, the SD is the square root of the variance. 3 -28 Stats
z-score The z-score says how many SD's above (+) or below (-) the average a value is. The sample z-score for a measurement is z= The population z-score for a measurement is z= example: 3 -29 Stats
Interpreting z-scores Interpretation of z-Scores for "Mound-Shaped" Distributions of Data 1. Approximately 68% of the measurements will have a z-score between -1 and +1. 2. Approximately 95% of the measurements will have a z-score between -2 and +2. 3. All or almost all of the measurements will have a z-score between -3 and +3. 3 -30 Stats
