This book contains more statistics than is usually taught in a college course. It covers…
Descriptive Statistics (averages, measures of dispersion, types of distributions)
Probability
Bayes’ Theorem
From a Given Population Determine What Samples Will Look Like (7 tests)
Techniques of Sampling
From a Given Sample Determine What the Population Was (14 tests)
Determine Whether Two Given Samples Came From the Same Population (15 tests)
Working With Three or More Samples (10 tests)
Emergency Statistics Guide
Regression Equations
Field Guide
16 Tables
Unlike most other math programs, this one also has:
• One morning in the life of Fred in which he encounters the need for each of the 46 tests
• The flowcharts in the Emergency Statistics Guide lead you quickly to which test to use, which table to read and where to find the test described in detail in the book
• Each test is catalogued in detail on a separate page in the Field Guide Easy-to-read tables
All answers are included in the textbook.
The Life of Fred homeschool math books cover math topics appropriate for kindergarteners all the way up to third year of college, including arithmetic, fractions and decimals, algebra, geometry, calculus, and everything in between.
No other textbooks are like these. Each text is written in the style of a novel with a humorous story line. Each section tells part of the life of Fred Gauss and how, in the course of his life, he encounters the need for the math and then learns the methods. Tons of solved examples. Each hardcover textbook contains ALL of the material – more than most instructors cover in traditional classroom settings. Includes tons of proofs.
Written by Dr. Stanley Schmidt with the intent to make math come alive with lots of humour, clear explanations, and silly illustrations that stick in the mind. The student will learn to think mathematically.
Completion of this series prepares student for third year college math.
