SEM is usually estimated by the sample estimate of the population standard deviation ( sample standard deviation ) divided by the square root of the sample size ( assuming statistical independence of the values in the sample ) : where s is the sample standard deviation ( i.e. , the sample-based estimate of the standard deviation of the population ) , and n is the size ( number of observations ) of the sample .

where s is the sample standard deviation ( i.e. , the sample-based estimate of the standard deviation of the population ) , and n is the number of measurements in the sample .


The term may also be used to refer to an estimate of that standard deviation , derived from a particular sample used to compute the estimate .

The term may also be used for an estimate ( good guess ) of that standard deviation taken from a sample of the whole group .


In other words , it is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample statistic .

The standard deviation for all the sample averages is the standard error of the mean .


The standard error of the mean ( i.e. , of using the sample mean as a method of estimating the population mean ) is the standard deviation of those sample means over all possible samples ( of a given size ) drawn from the population .

Standard error of the mean is usually estimated by the standard deviation for a sample from the whole group ( sample standard deviation ) divided by the square root of the sample size .

Now , using the distributive law , we see that The second equality follows from the fact that 1 is a multiplicative identity .

Now , using the distributive law , we see that The second equality follows from the fact that 1 is a multiplicative identity , that is : .


The only other complex number x satisfying the equation x2 = − 1 is − i . In the algebra of quaternions , containing the complex plane , the equation x2 = − 1 has an infinity of solutions .

The only other complex number x for which the equation x2 = − 1 holds is − i . In the algebra of quaternions , which has the complex plane , the equation x2 = − 1 has an infinity of solutions .


Negative one has some similar but slightly different properties to positive one .

Negative one has some similar properties as positive one .


The second follows from the definition of − 1 as additive inverse of 1 : it is precisely that number that when added to 1 gives 0 .

The second follows from the definition of − 1 as additive inverse of 1 , that is , when added to 1 , it gives 0 .


But now adding 1 to both sides of this last equation implies The above arguments hold in any ring , a concept of abstract algebra generalizing integers and real numbers .

But now adding 1 to both sides of this last equation means The above arguments hold in any ring .


The complex number i satisfies i2 = − 1 , and as such can be considered as a square root of − 1 .

The complex number i satisfies i2 = − 1 .


This can be proved using the distributive law and the axiom that 1 is the multiplicative identity : for x real , we have where we used the fact that any real x times 0 equals 0 , implied by cancellation from the equation In other words , so ( − 1 ) · x is the arithmetic inverse of x , or − x . The square of − 1 , i.e. − 1 multiplied by − 1 , equals 1 .

So , for x real , we have where we used the fact that 0 multiplied by any real number x equals 0 , shown by cancellation from the equation In other words , so ( − 1 ) · x or − x is the arithmetic inverse of x . The square of − 1 , i.e. − 1 multiplied by − 1 , equals 1 .


In mathematics , − 1 is the additive inverse of 1 , that is , the number that when added to 1 gives the additive identity element , 0 .

In mathematics , − 1 is the additive inverse of 1 .


Multiplying a number by − 1 is equivalent to changing the sign on the number .

Multiplying a number by − 1 is the same as changing the sign on the number .


As a consequence , a product of two negative real numbers is positive .

So , a square of negative real numbers is positive .
