Type these into any cell. The examples reuse numbers from the topics, so you can check each answer.
Mean, median, mode
=AVERAGE(A2:A21)
=MEDIAN(A2:A21)
=MODE.MULT(A2:A21)MODE.MULT returns every mode when there is a tie.Sample SD and variance
=STDEV.S(A2:A21)
=VAR.S(A2:A21)Use STDEV.P and VAR.P for a whole population.Coefficient of variation
=STDEV.S(A2:A21)/AVERAGE(A2:A21)Correlation and covariance
=CORREL(A2:A21,B2:B21)
=COVARIANCE.S(A2:A21,B2:B21)Combinations
=COMBIN(5,2)Returns 10.Binomial
=BINOM.DIST(2,8,0.2,FALSE)
=BINOM.DIST(2,8,0.2,TRUE)Exactly 2 is 0.294; at most 2 is 0.797.Poisson
=POISSON.DIST(3,3,FALSE)
=POISSON.DIST(4,6,TRUE)Exactly 3 is 0.224; at most 4 is 0.285.Normal areas and cutoffs
=NORM.DIST(525,400,50,TRUE)
=NORM.INV(0.9,400,50)0.9938, and 464.1 cups.Critical values
=NORM.S.INV(0.975)
=T.INV.2T(0.05,15)1.96 and 2.131.Confidence interval margins
=CONFIDENCE.NORM(0.05,5,25)
=CONFIDENCE.T(0.05,12,16)1.96 and 6.39. Add and subtract from the mean.Simple regression
=SLOPE(B2:B7,A2:A7)
=INTERCEPT(B2:B7,A2:A7)
=RSQ(B2:B7,A2:A7)y values first, then x.Full regression output
