Statistics By: Ethan Corey
The factors that affect corals survival are the temperature of the water, the water depth, how active the waves are. Will the Coral Survive Probability is a way to measure the chances that something will occur in relations to the possible alternative
Variance σ2 The variance (s2) is calculated as: Variance is a value that is used in Statistics to describe how far away your data sets are from the mean. ∑=sum X=mean of the value n=number of numbers s2= Variance X=each data value
Standard Deviation σ Standard Deviation describes how spread out the data are. ∑=sum X=mean of the value n=number of numbers σ= Standard Deviation X=each data value
Theoretical Distribution(TDC) • It is an ideal picture of a distribution based upon a sampling
T-Test Equation The P value has to be less than 0.05 to reject the null
