I,
MT 143
Course Description (from the College):
This four-credit course includes concepts and computer skills which are
valuable in a variety of life and work applications, as well as in more
advanced coursework. This course will include topics from descriptive and
inferential statistics, such as graphing, measures of central tendency and
dispersion, probability frequency distributions, Central Limit Theorem,
the normal distribution, sampling concepts, estimation, hypothesis
testing, linear regression, correlation, utilization of a statistical
software package, interpretation of computer output, and explaining and
interpreting statistical analysis. Prerequisites: MT 013 or appropriate
college equivalent and /or appropriate mathematics level code.
