  • Statistics 101: Binomial Mean and Standard Deviation.
    In this video, we learn how to calculate the mean and standard deviation for a binomial distribution. Two examples are provided and we tie the concept back into the previous video where we discussed cumulative binomial probabilities. Enjoy!

    Very informative, much appreciated.. as an aside, you gave me a chill of genuine terror when you referenced nearly half of the respondents have a pre-enlightenment level of understanding.

    One more thing. Because your instructional video's are well-prepared and easy to understand, it takes minimal time for me to re-learn and apply the methods at work. Basically all I need is an overview and your video's are very good at doing this. Thanks,,,

    Mr. Foltz, I started watching your Stats 101 playlist about a year-and-a-half ago. I got through most of it but probability theory didn’t stick for some reason. I went back and watched the videos in Playlists 4 and 5 (up to this one) this month, and things just clicked. Your way of explaining things makes even a (once) quasi-innumerate like me understand. You and your videos are a lifesaver. I knew I’d get probability theory once I took a break and came back to it, knowing how helpful your coverage of other stats topics have been. The correlation coefficient between watching your videos and understanding is a solid 1!

    Brilliant :) I'm currently studying Statistics as part of my Bachelor of Business in hospitality Management and I have never even seen half of these equations and formulas before, your videos have really helped me understand this subject with much more ease. I wish you did these for every subject lol, you have a wonderful teaching style, please keep making your videos :)

    At the end of each video, you ask if there is anything better you can do. No, there is nothing that you can do better because these series all are the best! Your hard work and dedication are amazing!

    Great videos. My undergrad's was in System Engineering and I use inferential stats in my finance career in about 20% of my work. I am a Lean Six-Sigma Black Belt so when I need to refresh my memory of stats based on the data that I collect, I like to use RUclips as instructions to help me. Your video's are a huge asset in helping me re-learn calculations and apply my data to my LSS projects. My current project uses attribute data so your Binomial Distribution vid's have helped me tremendously.

    Thank you so much Pro. Foltz, I am working on my BS in Psychology, and this is one of my final courses and though we are only two weeks in I was at the point of dropping class because I just could not get it and decided to come to youtube and see what was available. You explain things slowly and clearly, and I am starting to understand, I will be using your videos to help me finish this course successfully. Thank you again.

    I really appreciate your video Mr Foltz it really simple to understand. Yet, i thought it will be good if you explain how the formula comes from such as standard deviation in this video. Thank you. Godspeed

  • @vaslot

    In this video, it would have helped if you proved to us that the gallup poll was a binomial experiment (i.e. meets all the requirements of a binomial experiment) and then apply the formulas for the mean and the standard deviation. In general it is hard for me to know how to reason about the experiment itself, so anything that helps me figure out what type of a distribution we're looking at would be helpful. My 2 cents...

  • @mariobarboza2134
    @mariobarboza2134 5 лет назад +1

    Hi, at the end of the video you mention that you covered the probability of 6 or more sales. In which video do you cover that one? Thanks for all your support!

    • @helen4805
      @helen4805 2 года назад

      Yes, I noticed that. He actually covers less than and greater than in video 5.8. so watch 5.6, then 5.8 and then 5.7 (this one).

  • @bhuvneshkumar1970
    @bhuvneshkumar1970 4 года назад

    Hey Foltz, Good series, keep up the good work. A little advice if we can have proof how at @8:00 we got mean = n.p? Because it uses to be Summation of outcome x probability(outcome).

    Hello. I'm getting ready to study for the midterm exams, i'm looking to find your video in order starting from the 1st video, I see that some of videos them have #'s on it, but I don't see the 1st, 2nd and 3nd,......videos, where I can find them?

      Beta Marashi Hello! Go to the playlist page at ruclips.net/user/bcfoltzplaylists and everything there is labeled (no PL02 though). Once you are in a playlist everything is in order as well.

    Hello, great video. You had me until we got to the end with Joan and Margo. How am I not getting for Joan 10x.75(6th power) and .25(4th power) to equal .146? What am I doing wrong

  • @zgpop3794
    @zgpop3794 10 месяцев назад

    Im not sure I understand correctly, in the last video you said that the question was: What is the probability that each salesperson makes exactly 6 sales on any given day. And we saw that Margo had the upper edge on that by circa 2 %. However now you states that we discussed in the last video: What is the probability that each salesperson makes AT LEAST 6 sales on any given day? But if that is the case then shouldn't it be Joan? Since she has a higher probability on almost everything above 6 sales?

    Can you not just group the P(DIE ROLL: 1/3 success = {1,2} 2/3 failure = {3,4,5,6}) into a Binomial Distribution?
