CENTRAL LIMIT THEOREM There are many situations in business where populations are distributed normally; however‚ this is not always the case. Some examples of distributions that aren’t normal are incomes in a region that are skewed to one side and if you need to are looking at people’s ages but need to break them down to for men and women. We need a way to look at the frequency distributions of these examples. We can find them by using the Central Limit Theorem. The Central Limit Theorem states

central The Central Limit Theorem A long standing problem of probability theory has been to find necessary and sufficient conditions for approximation of laws of sums of random variables. Then came Chebysheve‚ Liapounov and Markov and they came up with the central limit theorem. The central limit theorem allows you to measure the variability in your sample results by taking only one sample and it gives a pretty nice way to calculate the probabilities for the total ‚ the average and the proportion

n calculus‚ Rolle’s theorem essentially states that a differentiable function which attains equal values at two distinct points must have a point somewhere between them where the first derivative (the slope of the tangent line to the graph of the function) is zero. ------------------------------------------------- Standard version of the theorem [edit] If a real-valued function f is continuous on a closed interval [a‚ b]‚ differentiable on the open interval (a‚ b)‚ and f(a) = f(b)‚ then there

Is life real? Through my analysis of both the articles I found many parallels in both accounts about whether the reality we face is true or if it’s a falsehood. In the movie the “Matrix” it deals with the reality that we face and how it’s been a lie for most of the average person’s life. The movie deals with a character whose name is “Mr. Anderson” aka Neo and how he has been living a double life‚ one as a computer programmer and the other as a hacker during the night. He has a run in with a man

PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM More than 4000 years ago‚ the Babyloneans and the Chinese already knew that a triangle with the sides of 3‚ 4 and 5 must be a right triangle. They used this knowledge to construct right angles. By dividing a string into twelve equal pieces and then laying it into a triangle so that one side is three‚ the second side four and the last side five sections long‚ they could easily construct a right angle. A Greek scholar named Pythagoras‚ who lived around 500 BC‚ was also fascinated

For the soul is dead that slumbers‚ And things are not what they seem. Life is real! Life is earnest! And the grave is not its goal; "Dust thou art‚ to dust returnest‚"

170 CHAPTER 5. RECURSION AND RECURRENCES 5.2 The Master Theorem Master Theorem In the last section‚ we saw three different kinds of behavior for recurrences of the form aT (n/2) + n if n > 1 d if n = 1. T (n) = These behaviors depended upon whether a < 2‚ a = 2‚ and a > 2. Remember that a was the number of subproblems into which our problem was divided. Dividing by 2 cut our problem size in half each time‚ and the n term said that after we completed our recursive work‚ we had n

I think that many math topics have meaning and relevancy and are dependent on the path one takes in terms of finding real world application. For example‚ sports is largely dependent on sports. Decisions are made based regarding playing time as well as strategy based on percentages. In baseball‚ there is a strong use of math. Managers have to make decisions on which pitchers to start and‚ especially so in games of importance‚ those decisions are predicated upon statistical reality. If a pitcher has
