Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The development of statistics in the 1800s led to the development of the Bayes' theorem, named after Reverend Thomas Bayes. This theorem is used in probabilistic inference, which is the process of using data to calculate the likelihood of a hypothesis or outcome. The theorem is used for determining the probability of an event occurring given its prior probability, as well as its associated conditions. The Bayes' theorem is also used in a variety of fields, such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, economics, and medical research. Sources:

Bayes' theorem it is. Seems straightforward for inferential statistics.

Yeah, David. Central limit theorem is important but not the best fit here.

Hmm, but could it be D) The central limit? Though it's more about distribution.
