Sample data is -1.85. The decision made by the researcher based on this
information is to _____ the null hypothesis.
A. reject
B. do not reject
C. redefine
D. change the alternate hypothesis

6. A Type I error is committed when


a) We reject a null hypothesis that is true.
b) We don\'t reject a null hypothesis that is true.
c) We reject a null hypothesis that is false.
d) We don\'t reject a null hypothesis that is false.
7. If a test of hypothesis has a Type I error probability () of 0.01, we mean
a) If the null hypothesis is true, we don\'t reject it 1% of the time.
b) If the null hypothesis is true, we reject it 1% of the time.
c) If the null hypothesis is false, we don\'t reject it 1% of the time.
d) If the null hypothesis is false, we reject it 1% of the time.

b) .8571
c) .9143
d) .8529
9. Suppose a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who exercise
regularly is 0.29 to 0.37. Which one of the following statements is FALSE?
a) It is reasonable to say that more than 25% of Americans exercise regularly.
b) It is reasonable to say that more than 40% of Americans exercise regularly.
c) The hypothesis that 33% of Americans exercise regularly cannot be rejected.

d) It is reasonable to say that fewer than 40% of Americans exercise regularly.

results obtained by testing a null hypothesis if:
a. a two-tailed test is used.
b. a one-tailed test is used.
c. both of the previous statements are true.
d. none of the previous statements is true.
11. Why absence of linear correlation does not imply absence of correlation?

12. A random sample of 100 voters in a community produced 59 voters in favour of

c) 1.83
d) 1.28
e) 1.75
13. The way that the variance of x affects the linear correlation?

15. We would like to take survey of RRC students to see how much home work they do in

deviation is known to be 4.5 with the margin of error of + /- 0.75. How many student
should be surveyed?

beer is 0.45 with margin of error of + /- 0.5.. How many students to be surveyed?
The likelihood of a brain damage permanent basis in the youth football who suffered a
loss of consciousness due to fibrillation is equal to 0.001 what is the product of two
previous chances

A 95% confidence interval for b1 is determined to be (15,30). Interpret the


meaning of
Que: Make an example of reasoning modus ponens different from those made in the
class?
Ans: All male are mammals Bill Gate is Man Ergo Bill gates is mammal.

Que :Make an example of reasoning for modus Tollens different those made in the class
Ans: All male are mammals Bill Gate is not mammal Ergo Bill Gates is not man
Que: Name two dichotomies other than those made in the class.
Ans: 1) Health/sick 2) Beneficial /Harmful
Que :Describe the relationship between logical truth and factual truth?
Ans: The truth is factual actually exist that fit in reality of events
The logical truth are made legitimate by deductive reasoning (syllogism)
Que: what is the difference between Ranking and classification?
Ans: classification means development of a set of rules of segmentation. And means
making classes. Ranking means assigning an object to a class.
Que: Why any classification is imperfect?
Ans: Because a given instance has some features similar to those other instants of the
class but has some specific properties that make it unique
Que: What is the relationship between logical implication and inclusion set theory?
Ans: There is an isomorphism between the set theory and mathematical logic.

What factors depends on the precession (amplitude) of the confidence interval calculated mean of
population in the case where variance of the variables in the population is not known for each
factors examined is indicated and the effect that it produces the amplitude of the interval.

a.
b.
c.
d.
e.

longer than
shorter than
the same length as
it depends on the particular set of data
none of these

Que: True or False? If False, correct it.


A confidence interval estimate for a parameter is used to eliminate
the element of chance from estimation.

Ans: False, the confidence interval is used to acknowledge the element of


chance in estimation.
Q: True or False? If False, correct it.
Confidence intervals can be shortened (decreases) by increasing the sample size.

Ans: True, other things being equal, the confidence interval will decrease as
Sample size increases.

Q : If the size of the sample being used is increased, then the width of
a 0.95 confidence interval estimate for a population mean will:
a) Become narrower.
b) Become wider.
c) Not be changed.
d) The effect on the width cannot be determined from the given
information
Ans: a) Become narrower.
