Binomial and Poisson Distributions

  • Mean, variance and properties of the Binomial Distribution
  • Mean, variance and properties of the Poisson Distribution
  • Use of Poisson to approximate Binomial

Continuous Distributions

  • Properties of the Continuous Uniform (Rectangular) Distribution
  • Derivation of the mean, variance and CDF of the CUD
  • Use of the Normal Distribution to approximate the Binomial and Poisson (with continuity correction)

Continuous Random Variables

  • Idea of a continuous random variable
  • Relationship between Probability Density Function and Cumulative Distribution Function
  • Mean and variance
  • Mode, median and quartiles

Hypothesis Tests

  • Population, census and sample
  • Concept of a statistic and its sampling distribution
  • Concept and interpretation of a hypothesis test
  • Critical regions and one- or two-tailed tests
  • Hypothesis tests for the parameter of a binomial distribution and the mean of a Poisson distribution
