A course underlying the basics of hypothesis testing for estimating one population mean, including Z- and T-tests and Intervals. Pre-requisites: The normal distribution, z-scores, sampling distribution of sample means and the Central Limit Theorem, and a basic knowledge of probability.

Learning Objectives

• To estimate the value of one population mean
• Inferential statistics – using statistics in order to estimate parameters
• We will be working with two inference procedures: (1) Z-Test (population standard deviation is known)(2) T-Test (population standard deviation is unknown
