Incidence rate and relative risk are two different measurements used in epidemiology to study illness/disease in specified populations.
Incidence rate refers to the number of new cases of a condition in a defined (specified) group or population. It is often expressed as a ratio. For example, if there are 1000 people and 14 of them develop a condition, the incidence rate is 14 per 1000 or 1.4%
Relative risk is a measurement that indicates probability of cause. In other words, how likely is it that a place, person or agent is responsible for causing disease/illness.
Before you can calculate relative risk, you must first calculate an attack rate on different groups. An attack rate refers to the number of people exposed to an illness compaired to those who actually became sick. To calculate the attack rate, you divide the number of people ill by those who were exposed, and then multiply by 100.
To then calculate the relative risk, you divide the attack rate of those sick by the attack rate of those who are not sick.
The closer the relative risk is to 1.0, the less likely it is the cause of disease.
The higher the relative risk, the more likely it is that it is the cause of disease.
absolute deviation is a difference between say two numbers. The result has the same units as the two numbers have. Relative deviation is a ratio and so it is a pure number without any units.

An odds ratio is the difference between the number of times that something happens and does not happen. An unadjusted odds ratio is a guess between what could or could not happen.

A ratio table is more like a pattern, where a data table has graphs.
There is no difference between the two. Relative risk is the same as relative ratio. Commonly abbreviated as RR, relative risk/ratio is measure of absolute risk in one population as a proportion of absolute risk in another. It is a measure of the strength of association.
Density: the ratio mass/volume for a material, expressed in kg/m3 (SI). Relative density: the ratio between the density of a material and the density of pure water at the same temperature.
absolute deviation is a difference between say two numbers. The result has the same units as the two numbers have. Relative deviation is a ratio and so it is a pure number without any units.
DENSITY : density is the ratio of mass and volume of the substance density=mass/volume RELATIVE DENSITY : It is the ratio of density of a substance to the density of water
DENSITY : density is the ratio of mass and volume of the substance density=mass/volume RELATIVE DENSITY : It is the ratio of density of a substance to the density of water

Snell's Law states that the ratio of the sines of the angles of incidence and refraction is equal.
relative error.
a ratio is a comparison between 2 things and a proportion is a ratio on each side of the = sign
An odds ratio is the difference between the number of times that something happens and does not happen. An unadjusted odds ratio is a guess between what could or could not happen.
a ratio is a fraction of two numbers a proportion is = fractions
Snell's law stipulates that the ratio of the sines as regards the angles of incidence in addition to that of refraction is a constant influenced by the media.
