Inferential statistics
The inferential statistics capabilities of the HP 49G include calculation of
confidence intervals and hypothesis tests based on the Normal
Z-distribution or Student’s t-distribution.
Based on the statistics from one or two samples, you can test hypotheses
and find confidence intentais for the following quantities:
® mean
® proportion
® difference between two means
® difference between two proportions
The calculator contains online help for each test. You access the online
help by pressing HELP on the test input form.
Example data
When you first access an input fonn for an inferential statistics test, by
default the input fonn contains example data. This example data is
designed to return meaningful results that relate to the test. It is useful for
gaining an understanding of what the test does, and for demonstrating the
test. The calculator’s online help provides a description of what the
example data represents.
