NUMERICAL DESCRIPTION OF A TWO-VARIABLE DATA SET Steps for calculating numerical descriptions of a two-variable data set 1. Turn the calculator on and press STAT to enter the statistics menu. Press A (EDIT) ENTER to access the data entry screen. Delete old data by highlighting L1 and pressing DEL ENTER . Repeat for other lists. Enter the following data set: X Y 25 32 28 33 31 27 40 38 29 30 2. Check the data you have entered and correct any errors you may find. To calculate the numerical descriptions of the two variables, press 2ndF QUIT STAT C (CALC) 2 2_Stats. Press ENTER and the statistical results will appear. 3. Press ▼ to view the remaining statistics. 4. The statistics displayed are: 1. the average or mean value of the variable, x or y ; 2. the standard deviation assuming the data points are a sample from a population, sx or sy; 3. the standard deviation assuming the data points represent the entire population, σx or σy; 4. the sum of the values, ∑x or ∑y; 5. the sum of the squared values, ∑x2 or ∑y2; 6. the number of data points, n; 7. the minimum variable value, xmin or ymin; 8. the maximum variable value, xmax or ymax; and 9. the sum of the x and y products, ∑xy. 11 Advanced Keyboard/STATISTICS USING THE SHARP EL-9900 Copyright © 2002, Sharp Electronics Corporation.
