Continuous vs discrete Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

What is a continuous variable? correct answer: an infinite number of values are possible Two types of continuous variables? correct answer: interval (change in units is consistent) and ratio (similar to interval, except have an absolute zero) What is a discrete variable? 2 types correct answer: dichotomous or categorical Nominal variable? correct answer: discrete variables classified into groups with no particular order (sex and mortality) Ordinal variable? correct answer: d...

Amanda is measuring the temperature. She looks at the thermometer and sees that it is somewhere between 65 and 66 degrees Fahrenheit. She is okay with the temperature in between two integers because she knows temperature is not ________ data, but temperature is _________ data.  a) Nominal, Ordinal  b) Nominal, Discrete  c) Continuous, Discrete  d) Discrete, Continuous Feedback: The correct answer is D. Temperature is not a measure that comes in increments (discrete) but is co...

Biostats Definitions UTA Exam 1 with Complete Solutions Frequentist Probabilities have a frequency interpretation. Prior knowledge is not formally incorporated into statistical analyses (parametric vs nonparametric); old school and what we focus on in class Bayesian Probabilities can be subjective and represent degrees of belief. Prior knowledge is formally included in statistical analyses. Statistics Scientific study of numerical data collected from natural phenomena. The study ...

C207 OA WGU Questions with 100% Correct Answers Simple indexing -Answer-Common analytic measure to improve performance. Compares current data with data during a base period. (Price / Price during "Base Period") x 100 i.e. Big Mac was 1.60 in 1968 which is base period. what is index for 2014 if price was 4.80 then? (4.80 / 1.60) * 100 = 300 (means price is 3x greater than base period) Used to identify price fluctuations of supplies, materials, products, etc. Weighted Index -Answer-assig...

RBT Competency Assessment Practice ANSWER AND QUESTIONS Continuous Measurement - CORRECT ANSWER-measurements taken throughout the entire session examples of C.M: -frequency data (count behavior) -duration data (time behavior) -latency data (time between instruction/prompt and response) -interresponse time (IRT) data (time between two behaviors) How is Discontinuous Measurement different from Continuous Measurement? - CORRECT ANSWER-Continuous measurement data taking take occurs thro...

BUAD 331 UTK EXAM 2 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS LATEST UPDATE 2024/2025 | 100% SOLVED. make to order - ANSWER ___________ supply chains involve production in generally small quantities to meet specific customer needs. Examples include construction projects or weddings. assemble to order - ANSWER _______________ production involves holding standard parts or sub-assemblies and then allowing customers to specify the desired combination. Dell and Chipotle both use this strategy by allowing customers...

Ho = The Null Hypothesis Accepted when no statistical difference was detected between treatment groups; p-value > 0.05 Ha = The Alternative Hypothesis Opposite of the null hypothesis; accepted when there is a statistical significance between the treatment and placebo groups; p-value <0.05 Independent Variables Variables set by the researcher; can be controlled Dependent Variables Variables that will DEPEND on the independent variables; can not be controlled ...

Reasons Simulation is useful -Ability to predict performance of systems that haven't been built -Cost/risk of performing experiments in the real world -Predicting performance during unusual one-off scenarios Dimensions of simulation -static vs. dynamic (time is not a factor in a static) -continuous vs. discrete (water levels/happiness/pressure is cont., arrivals per hour/ people/ physical objectsdiscrete) -deterministic vs. stochastic (random inputs = stochastic)
