However, in this section, we will concentrate on finding the maximums and minimums of quadratic functions. There is a large body of real-life applications that can be modeled by quadratic functions, so we will find that this is an excellent entry point into the study of optimization.

If a majority of the residents in the community oppose the coal terminal (success), the mayor will also oppose it; otherwise the mayor will support it.

To reiterate, the probability value is the probability of an outcome (9/16 or better) and not the probability of a particular state of the world (the bird was only guessing).

The explanation is different for categorical and quantitative data. We will begin with categorical data.

The director wrote her back saying “women are not physiologically able to run marathon distances, and we wouldn't want to take the medical liability. “6 That was during a time when opportunities were limited for women because of the assumption they were physically incapable of doing many of the things that men could do.

Our main interest is in inferential statistics to try to infer from the data what the population might thin or to evaluate the probability that an observed difference between groups is a dependable one or one that might have happened by chance in this study. Nevertheless, the starting point for dealing with a collection of data is to organize, display, and summarize it effectively.

These simple tools, and the principles behind them, will help you interpret information presented to you and understand the basics of a variable. Moving forward, we now turn our attention to how scores within a distribution are related to one another, how to precisely describe a score’s location within the distribution, and how to compare scores from different distributions.

We will discuss each of them in turn.
