G180 – Gen Ed Math Terminology Review
Each of the players is a thinking, rational entity seeking to maximize his or her share of the booty. The term that describes this is Rationality
The players are willing participants and accept the rules of the game as binding. This is called Cooperation
This method can be used anytime the fair-division game involves two players and a continuous set S (a cake, a pizza, a plot of land, etc.) Divider-Chooser Method
When the booty “S” is divided among N players and each player’s portion is worth at least 1/N th of the total value in the opinion of the players, we call that A Fair Share
If there are more than 2 players, the division method is called The Lone Divider method
When players write what they consider a fair share on a piece of paper this is called Bidding
When decisions are made as to who gets what share this is called. Distribution
When property is divided among several people, where each person can be a buyer and a seller, the method used is called . Sealed Bids
When each item in a property division goes to the highest bidder, this is called. Allocation
In Sealed bids, the difference of the value of the item each player gets and the player’s fair-share is called the.. First Settlement
After each player has paid what is owed in a sealed bid process, if there is money left over, it is called The surplus
When the surplus is added to the First Settlement , the result is called . The Final Settlement
The combination of a set of dots and lines connecting them is called. A Graph
Each dot in a graph is called A Vertex
If two vertices in a graph are joined by an edge they are.. Adjacent
The name for the number of edges meeting at a vertex is called a Degree
If a vertex has 4 edges connecting to it is an Even Vertex
If you can get from any vertex to any other vertex along a path the graph is Connected
A graph that is composed of separate components is .. Disconnected
If a graph is connected and every vertex is even then it has A Euler Circuit
If a graph is connected and has exactly two odd vertices then it has A Euler Path
Data presented in this format is called A Frequency Table
Data presented in this format is called.. A Bar Chart
A Group of data is called A Data Set
Each individual data point is called A Data Value
When the difference between data values of a numerical value can be made arbitrarily small it is called A Continuous Variable
When possible values of a numerical variable change by minimum increments it is called A discrete variable
When a numerical variable is continuous it is usually represented by a variation of a bar chart that is called A Histogram
The middle value of a data set is called The Median
If a certain percent of the numbers in a data set fall below a certain value and the rest fall above it the term used to describe this is Percentile
A variable that represents a measurable quantity is called A quantitative variable
Variables that represent characteristics that that cannot be measured numerically are called Qualitative Variables
The difference between the highest and lowest value in a data set is called The Range
The average of the squared differences between the mean and each data value is called The Variance
The Square root of the variance is called The Standard Deviation
Every statistical statement refers directly or indirectly to some group of individuals or objects. This group is called The Population
The process of collecting data by going through every member of a population is called A Census
When collecting data from only some members of the population the process is called A Survey
A survey in which members of a sample provide information by answering specific questions from an interviewer is called A Poll
When we survey only some members of the population, the resulting group is called A Sample
