1. If you divide the number of elements in a sample with a specific characteristic by the total number of elements in the sample, the dividend is the:

• sample mean
• sampling distribution

2. The mean of a discrete random variable is its:
• box-and-whisker measure

3. Two paired or matched samples would imply that:
• data are collected on two variables from the elements of two independent samples

• two data values are collected from the same source (elements) for two dependent samples
4. In a survey regarding job satisfaction, 574 in a sample of 934 female job-holders stated that they are satisfied with their jobs, while 500 in a sample of 755 male job-holders stated that they are satisfied with their jobs. The null hypothesis is that the proportions of all female and male job-holders who are satisfied with their jobs are the same. The alternative hypothesis is that the proportion of female job-holders who are satisfied with their jobs is lower than the proportion of male job-holders stated who are satisfied with their jobs. The significance level is 2.5%.

• cannot be graphed
• cannot be measured numerically
• can assume numerical values
• can assume an uncountable set of values
8. For a one-tailed test, the p-value is:
• the area under the curve between the mean and the observed value of the sample statistic
• twice the area under the curve between the mean and the observed value of the sample statistic
• twice the area under the curve to the same side of the value of the sample statistic as is specified in the alternative hypothesis
• the area under the curve to the same side of the value of the sample statistic as is specified in the alternative hypothesis
9. You toss a coin nine times and observe 3 heads and 6 tails. This event is a:

• compound event
• multinomial sample point
• simple event
10. For small degrees of freedom, the chi-square distribution is:
• skewed to the right
• skewed to the left
• rectangular
• symmetric
11. A researcher wants to test if the mean annual salary of all lawyers in a city is different than $110,000. The null hypothesis for this example will be that the population mean is:
• less than to $110,000
• greater than to $110,000
• equal to $110,000
• not equal to $110,000
12. The mean of a discrete random variable is the mean of its:

• second and third quartiles
• percentage distribution
13. The model y = A + Bx is a:
• nonlinear model
• deterministic model
• probabilistic model
• stochastic model
14. A sample of 16 from a population produced a mean of 86.9 and a standard deviation of 14.3. A sample of 18 from another population produced a mean of 75.4 and a standard deviation of 15.9. Assume that the two populations are normally distributed and the standard deviations of the two populations are equal. The null hypothesis is that the two population means are equal, while the alternative hypothesis is that the mean of the first population is greater than the man of the second population. The significance level is 1%.

16. In a hypothesis test, a Type I error occurs when:
• a false null hypothesis is rejected

• a true null hypothesis is rejected
• a false null hypothesis is not rejected
17. A researcher wants to test if elementary school children spend less than 30 minutes per day on homework. The alternative hypothesis for this example will be that the population mean is:
• less than or equal to 30 minutes
• equal to 30 minutes
• not equal to 30 minutes
• less than 30 minutes
18. A linear regression:
• gives a relationship between three variables that can be described by a line
• contains only two variables
• gives a relationship between two variables that cannot be described by a line
• gives a relationship between two variables that can be described by a line
19. For a goodness-of-fit test, the frequencies obtained from the performance of an experiment are the:

• The populations from which the samples are drawn have the same variance.
• All samples are of the same size.
• The populations from which the samples are drawn are (approximately) normally distributed.
• The samples drawn from different populations are random and independent.

• not normal
•skewed to the left
• approximately normal
• skewed to the right
22. To make tests of hypotheses about more than two population means, we use the:
