Global Changes
- Replaced over 100 examples with new or updated ones and over 550 new or updated exercises.
- Updated the Technology Tips sections.
- Renumbered statistical tables in the Appendix A.
- Most exercises include the TI answers along with the answers that use the tables in the book.
- Chapter 1
- New Statistics Today example.
- New statistical examples to introduce how statistics are used today.
- Chapter 2
- Updated Statistics Today example.
- Chapter 5
- Section 5-3 now includes solving problems using the combination formula in addition to the binomial formula.
- Chapters 7, 8, and 9
- These chapters have been revised to allow professors who want to teach proportions before means to do so. They should cover the first sections of these chapters and then skip to the proportions sections, and then do the means sections. For those who prefer to teach means before proportions, just follow the sequence of the book.
- Chapters 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12
- These chapters allow professors to teach hypothesis testing using the P-value. It should be noted that some P-values obtained by technology may differ from those in the book since the calculations of P-values depend on the number of decimal places the technology uses to compute the test values.
- Chapter 14
- New section on Big Data.
