Probability Perspective
The Probability Perspective shows the Probability Calculator, which allows you to easily calculate and graph probability distributions, as well as to conduct statistical tests.
The views of the Probability Calculator
The Distribution View of the Probability Calculator allows you to graph a variety of probability distributions.
Just select the distribution you want to work with from the list available in the drop down menu (e.g. Normal, Binomial) and GeoGebra will graph it for you. Then, you can adjust the parameters of the distribution in the adjacent text boxes.
The Statistics View in the Probability Calculator allows you to conduct a variety of statistical tests. Just select the test you want to work with from the list available in the drop down menu (e.g. Z Test of a Mean) and specify your Null Hypothesis, as well as your Alternative Hypothesis. Then, adjust the parameters of your test in the provided text boxes and GeoGebra will automatically provide the results of your statistical test.
Task
Get in touch with the features of the Distribution View of the Probability Calculator.
Instructions
| Calculate the probability P(a X b) of a distribution. Note: You can adjust the interval limits a and b by either replacing their values in the formula, or by dragging them in the graph. |
| Calculate the probability P(X x) of a left sided distribution. |
| Calculate the probability P(x X) of a right sided distribution. |
| Calculate the probability P(X x) + P(X x) of a two tailed distribution. |
| Toggle between the graphs of the probability density function and the cumulative distribution function. |
