<p><i>For one- or two-semester courses in Probability, Probability & Statistics, or Mathematical Statistics.</i></p> <p><br></p> <p><b>An authoritative introduction to an in-demand field</b></p> <p>Advances in computing technology - particularly in science and business - have increased the need for more statistical scientists to examine the huge amount of data being collected. Written by veteran statisticians, <b><i>Probability and Statistical Inference,</i> 10th Edition</b> emphasizes the existence of variation in almost every process, and how the study of probability and statistics helps us understand this variation. </p> <p> </p> <p>This applied introduction to probability and statistics reinforces basic mathematical concepts with numerous real-world examples and applications to illustrate the relevance of key concepts. It is designed for a two-semester course, but it can be adapted for a one-semester course. A good calculus background is needed, but no previous study of probability or statistics is required.</p> <p><br></p> <p><b>013518939X / 9780135189399 PROBABILITY AND STATISTICAL INFERENCE, 10/e </b></p>
