What is Probability?

How likely an event is to occur/How likely something is to happen

100

List the three main measures of central tendency. 

Mean, mode and median

What is a frequency table? 

A table that shows the list of values and the number of times they occur in a data set.

0 or Impossible 

100

What is another name for the second quartile or Q2?

The median

200

How do we identify the probability of an event occuring?

Favourable outcomes/Total outcomes

200

What does the mode represent? 

The value/s that occurs the most in a dataset.

Q1 and Q3 is also known as what? 

q1 = lower quartile

q3=upper quartile

300

Theoretical probability is calculated. True or false? 

True 

300

What does the mean represent? 

The sum of all values in the dataset divided by the number of values in the dataset.

300

What is the formula for finding the mean from an ungrouped frequency table? 

(The sum of all the values multiplied by their respective frequency) divided by (the total frequency) 

300

How likely is it that a die has 6 faces? 

1 or certain

300

How do we find the semi-interquartile range? 

q3 minus q1 divided by 2
