how are you suppose to understand this stuff?
Study, study, study!
Practice, practice, practice!
ok my question is (if you have a stats book its page 101 question 1.i.)
how do you get the answer if the percentile is 30 and you have 41 numbers in your data table and the 30th number is 57 but when you the equation its not the same answer in the back of the book?
We haven't a clue about which stats book you're using. Plus -- most of us don't have multiple stats book here at home.
With 41 numbers, 12.3 is the top of the 30th percentile.
its the mario f. triola copyright 2002 issue
now how did you get that?
41 * 0.3 = 12.3
Understanding something can be challenging, but with the right approach, it becomes easier. Here are a few steps to help you understand difficult concepts:
1. Break it down: Start by breaking the concept into smaller, more manageable parts. Identify the main ideas or key components.
2. Research: Use reliable sources to gain additional information about the concept you're trying to understand. Look for explanations, examples, and illustrations that can enhance your understanding.
3. Take notes: While researching, take organized notes. Summarize content in your own words, highlight key points, and jot down any questions or areas that need further clarification.
4. Ask questions: If something is unclear, ask questions. Seek out experts, teachers, or peers who can help provide clarity. Asking questions encourages more in-depth thinking and can lead to a better understanding.
5. Connect with prior knowledge: Relate the new concept to something you already understand. Making connections with familiar ideas can aid in comprehension and retention.
6. Practice: Apply what you've learned. Engage in practice exercises, simulations, or real-life scenarios that allow you to explore the concept firsthand. This helps solidify understanding and identify areas that need improvement.
7. Teach someone else: Explain the concept to someone else. Teaching others reinforces your understanding and exposes any gaps or misconceptions you might have.
Remember, understanding complex ideas takes time and effort. Be patient, persistent, and open to new perspectives, and remember that everyone learns in their own unique way.
