What is the difference between projection and prediction?

A great amount of confusion seem to have grown up in the use of words 'forecast', 'prediction' and 'projection'. A prediction is an estimate based solely in past data of the series under investigation. It is purely mechanical extrapolation. A projection is a prediction where the extrapolated values are subjects to a certain numerical assumptions. A forecast is an estimate which relates the series in which we are interested to external factors. Forecasts are made by estimating future values of the external factors by means of prediction, projection or forecast and from these values calculating the estimate of the dependent variable.

What conditions are necessary in order to use a test to test the differences between two population means?

How would you use a line graph to make predictions?

To use a line graph to make predictions, you have to look at the slope of the line. If there is any sort of pattern to the line, you can make an accurate prediction. For example, if the line steadily dropped, then suddenly spiked down, then started steadily dropping again, you could predict from the pattern that it will suddenly spike downward again.

What is interest rate prediction?

Interest rate prediction is when analysts use factors such as past and present market conditions to predict what a near future interest may be. Predictions aren't always accurate and therefore can cause many issues to arise.


What does will be means in math problems?

In maths problems, the term "will be" is generally used when you are expected to make a prediction about something (although the "prediction" has to be justified absolutely by maths to back it up. Generally you do the maths, get an answer, use this as your "prediction", then the maths backs it up. As opposed to "predicting" (ie. guessing), then doing the maths, since the maths is unlikely to justify the prediction when done this way around).e.g If you are given a formula which is the growth rate of a country, and asked "How many people will be living in this country in 10 years time?" Clearly, this is a "prediction", in the sense that the formula used to calculate this will be a modelled approximation of "growth rate" (since this is not something that is possible to model perfectly, mathematically, due to the many variables influencing it). However you should be able to substitue the "10" into the required place in the formula, and work out the what the expected answer is. The answer becomes your "prediction" and the working is your mathematical justification for what your "prediction".

Why are experiments often performed in laboratories?

In science, if you are trying to "prove" a theory (that's confirm it or falsify it), you must use experimental evidence. That is, you use the theory to make a prediction and then try it out. It's no good just to sit around and talk about it.

Tough question, this. Need to use those brain cells. *Thinks deeply* AH, Yes!!! I have it. Perhaps he lost the bet because his prediction was wrong. Yes, that's what must have happened. John's prediction was wrong


How is a prediction different to a guess?

A prediction is an educated guess. When you predict, you use the information you know to guess what will happen next. A guess means to "suppose (something) without sufficient information."
