Features: "Economic Mathematics Foundation" is edited by Chief Editor Zhu Hongyi and is divided into three volumes. The third volume includes Random Events and Probability, Random Variables and Their Distributions, Bivariate Random Variables, Numerical Characteristics of Random Variables, Basic Concepts of Mathematical Statistics, Parameter Estimation, Hypothesis Testing, Analysis of Variance and Regression Analysis, and Orthogonal Experimental Design. The content marked with an asterisk () is provided for optional use based on different teaching requirements. This textbook, following the principle of "application-oriented" and "essential and sufficient," is based on understanding fundamental concepts, mastering operational methods, and applying knowledge. It is developed in accordance with the Basic Teaching Requirements for the "Economic Mathematics Foundation Course" in higher vocational and technical colleges, combined with the practical reforms in mathematics teaching. This textbook emphasizes introducing concepts from real-world problems, maintaining an appropriate depth in theoretical derivation and proof, focusing on the cultivation of basic operational skills, analytical and problem-solving abilities, and adhering to the principles of linking theory with practice and heuristic teaching. It is designed to be easy to understand and accessible, facilitating both teacher-led instruction and self-study by readers. Each section is followed by exercises, and each chapter is followed by review questions.
