Statistical calculations
Learning Skills
The math will disappear from the screen. While in Math mode your answer will be given as fractions, even if you put in the information using the ÷ key. This is mentioned in our math handout
Until this is reversed your answers will be read as decimals.
Introduction:
This sheet will teach you how to use the Casio fx82AU calculator to perform statistical operations. See also our handout for mathematical functions. Any further queries please contact Student Central.
This sheet will teach you to:
1. Settings on your calculator
To turn your calculator on: ON Your screen should show a small D and Math at the top of the screen You need to change a couple of default settings before you start.
Once you change these they will stay changed and will enable you to better use your calculator.
1. Get out of Math mode into linear mode Calculator steps: shift setup 2
2. Change the default so that small decimal answers read in decimal format rather than exponent format. To check if this needs to happen
Enter 1 ÷ 200 = If your answer shows as
Calculator steps: shift setup 8 2

Frequency mode
This will enable you to enter a score and its frequency. Each score will have a frequency of 1 unless you use the right-arrow to enter a frequency cell and overwrite that frequency. See the section entering observations from a frequency table on how to enter data.
2. Calculation Mode
This is the mode where you perform all your standard or non-statistical functions
Calculator steps: MODE 1
3. Statistics Mode
This will enable you to enter data for descriptive statistical analysis. To put your calculate into statistical mode
Calculator steps: MODE 2 1 If you are entering data that is in a frequency table you then
need to do the following Calculator steps: SHIFT SETUP down arrow 3 1 To turn the frequency off Calculator steps: SHIFT SETUP down arrow 3 2
To clear the statistical memory, exit stats mode back to comp mode and re-enter stats mode, this should be done before entering any new data
Calculator steps: MODE 1 MODE 2 1
To check stored data: SHIFT 1 2

Number of scores
The number of scores (n) is 4 this is displayed while entering
AC after entering
You press AC after you have finished entering data to tell the calculator that you have completed.
It is also necessary in between displaying the descriptive statistics to clear the previous value
Descriptive Statistics
The equal sign must be pressed at the end to bring up the value of the descriptive statistic you are after.
To enter observations press = after entering the observation
Example 2.1
Enter 10, 12, 13, 16
Calculator steps: 10 = 12 = 13 = 16 = AC

To enter observations from a frequency table firstly ensure you have put it in the frequency mode as above, then type in;
= after entering the observation (as above) Now put in the frequencies; Using the arrow keys move the curser to the frequency column then type in = after entering the frequency Then AC
Example 6.1:
Enter the following table into your calculator
Calculator steps:
MODE 1 MODE 2 1 SHIFT SETUP down arrow 3 1 10 = 12 = 13 = 16 = move the curser to the frequency column 12 = 5 = 9 = 7 = AC
Once the observations are entered the mean and standard deviation are found as above.

Note
The mean and standard deviation are only approximate because we are using each class centre to approximate the individual observations
(n = 109)
To enter grouped data you first have to find the midpoint of each group. This is done by adding together the lowest and highest value from each group and then dividing it by two. We then use these as our observations.
Example 5.1:
To find the midpoint of each group: (0+10)/2=5 (10+20)/2=15 (20+30)/2=25 (30+40)/2=35
Calculator steps:
MODE 1 MODE 2 1 SHIFT SETUP down arrow 3 1 5 = 15 = 25 = 35 = move the curser to the frequency column 25 = 33 = 21 = 30 = AC

9. Entering x and y data sets
To enter x and y observations, it is the same as entering data from a frequency table except the second column is the y column
= after entering the x observation Now put in the y observations; Using the arrow keys move the curser to the y column then type in = after entering the frequency Then AC
Example 9.1
Calculator steps:
MODE 1 MODE 2 2 5 = 8 = 6 = 7 = 10 = move the curser to the y column 20 = 18 = 22 = 28 = 27 = AC
10. Regression output
AC SHIFT 1 7 1 = this will give A – the y-intercept of the regression line A = 16.189
AC SHIFT 1 7 2 = this will give B – the slope of the regression line B = 0.946
AC SHIFT 1 7 3 = this will give r – the correlation coefficient r = 0.417
