  2. Assumed mean - Wikipedia

    22 and −21 almost cancel, leaving +1, 15 and −17 almost cancel, leaving −2, 9 and −9 cancel, 7 + 4 cancels −6 − 5, and so on. We are left with a sum of −30. The average of these 15 deviations from the assumed mean is therefore −30/15 = −2. Therefore, that is what we need to add to the assumed mean to get the correct mean:

  3. Weighted arithmetic mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weighted_arithmetic_mean

    The mean for the morning class is 80 and the mean of the afternoon class is 90. The unweighted mean of the two means is 85. However, this does not account for the difference in number of students in each class (20 versus 30); hence the value of 85 does not reflect the average student grade (independent of class).

    In this class, students learn about limits and continuity (the intermediate and mean value theorems), differentiation (the product, quotient, and chain rules) and its applications (implicit differentiation, logarithmic differentiation, related rates, optimization, concavity, Newton's method, L'Hôpital's rules), integration and the Fundamental ...

  5. Mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean

    A mean is a quantity representing the "center" of a collection of numbers and is intermediate to the extreme values of the set of numbers. [1] There are several kinds of means (or "measures of central tendency") in mathematics, especially in statistics.

  6. Multiple choice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_choice

    (The correct answers are B, C and A respectively.) A well written multiple-choice question avoids obviously wrong or implausible distractors (such as the non-Indian city of Detroit being included in the third example), so that the question makes sense when read with each of the distractors as well as with the correct answer.

  7. Arithmetic mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_mean

    In mathematics and statistics, the arithmetic mean (/ ˌ æ r ɪ θ ˈ m ɛ t ɪ k / arr-ith-MET-ik), arithmetic average, or just the mean or average (when the context is clear) is the sum of a collection of numbers divided by the count of numbers in the collection. [1] The collection is often a set of results from an experiment, an ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennium_Prize_Problems

    The Millennium Prize Problems are seven well-known complex mathematical problems selected by the Clay Mathematics Institute in 2000. The Clay Institute has pledged a US $1 million prize for the first correct solution to each problem.

  9. Normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_distribution

    If the mean =, the first factor is 1, and the Fourier transform is, apart from a constant factor, a normal density on the frequency domain, with mean 0 and variance /. In particular, the standard normal distribution φ {\textstyle \varphi } is an eigenfunction of the Fourier transform.
