Consider the sample 2,4,7,8,9. Find the mean, x?
A random variable assumes a unique numerical value for each of the outcomes in a sample space of a probability experiment. This is called the random variable value. Numerical random variables can be subdivided into two classifications.
They are:

A masters thesis by M. Purser at the University of Washington in 1988 looked at soil densities in a conifer forest, before and after clearcut logging in the area. These histograms show 32 pre-logging densities and 38 post-logging densities, recorded in grams per cubic centimeter. Unlike most before-and-after designs, this was a two-sample study: the same sample of soil could not be assessed twice. First compare the histograms centers: when were the densities higher on average?
