Elementary Statistics, 14th Edition is the introductory statistics textbook built around real data from real studies. Acclaimed author Mario Triola emphasizes applications of statistical skills and concepts to help students of all majors understand the role of statistics in our lives.

This textbook covers probability, confidence intervals, describing and exploring data, and discrete and continuous probability distributions, among other topics. In addition, the authors explain hypothesis testing, two-sample inference, analysis of variance, and correlation and regression chi-square tests. And you’ll learn how to think critically about data, interpret statistical results in context, and run analyses in StatCrunch, Excel, or a TI calculator.

The 14th Edition offers a wealth of new data sets, exercises, and examples, along with content updates to keep the textbook current and relevant.
