CHALLENEG 1 Which of the following is an example of a statistic? a.) Average number of all high school graduates who will attend college b.) Standard deviation of tuition costs for all private universities c.) Summary value of a population d.) 25 random students are asked how much they spent on books  A sample is a subset of the entire group of interest. A statistic is something that comes from a sample. Since these 25 students are only a subset of all in the population, this is an example of a statistic from a sample. Which of the following is an example of a parameter? a.) 30 random adults are asked how much they spent on health insurance b.) 50 random students are asked how much they spent on supplies c.) Average number of all adults who smoke regularly d.) Summary value of a sample  Recall a parameter comes from the entire set of interest, the population. Since they are looking at all adults here, the average number of adult smokers would be an example of a parameter. Which of the following is an example of a statistic? a.) $18,000 is the average cost to attend 30 randomly selected public universities b.) Average number of all high school graduates who will attend college c.) A value used to represent a population d.) Standard deviation of all financial aid packages for private universities  A sample is a subset of the entire group of interest. A statistic is something that comes from a sample. Since these 30 universities are only a subset of all in the population, this is an example of a statistic from a sample. Select two symbols that represent a statistic.


a.) b.) c.) d.) e.) Answer Rationale Recall that p-hat (pp) is the sample proportion and x-bar (xx) is the sample mean. Since all of these come from samples, they are statistics. Select two symbols that represent a parameter. a.) b.) c.) d. e.) Answer Rationale Recall that sigma (σ) is the population standard deviation and mu (µ) is the population mean. Since all these values come from the population, they are parameters. One condition for performing a hypothesis test is that the observations are independent. If Jason is sampling 35 students without replacement, the minimum population size would have to be greater than ________ to treat the observations as independent. a.) 350 b.) 300 c.) 70 d.) 250  In general, we want the population to be at least 10 times larger than the sample. If the sample is 35, then the minimum population size would be at least 35 * 10 = 350. One condition for performing a hypothesis test is that the observations are independent. If Myra is sampling 30 students without replacement, the minimum population size would have to be greater than ________ to treat the observations as independent. a.) 600 b.) 300


c.) 150 d.) 60  In general, we want the population to be at least 10 times larger than the sample. If the sample is 30, then the minimum population size would be at least 30 * 10 = 300.

As sample size decreases, sampling error decreases. b.) As sample size increases, sampling error decreases. c.) As sample size increases, sampling error increases. d.) Sample size does not have an impact on sampling error.  If you recall that in the sampling error calculations for mean and proportion, the sample size is in the denominator. So as sample size increases, we can note the sampling error calculation must necessarily decrease. elect the FALSE statement regarding the relationship between sampling error and sample size. a.) An estimate becomes more accurate as you increase the sample size. b.) You can resolve poor data collection by increasing the sample size. c.) As a sample size decreases, the standard deviation increases. d.) Increasing the sample size will decrease the sampling error.  Recall that sampling process must be randomly drawn. If you don't draw a sample randomly, then increasing sample size will not alter the sampling error.


Select the FALSE statement regarding the relationship between sampling error and sample size. a.) The sample size can impact the sampling error. b.) The larger a sample size, the more accurate an estimate can be. c.) The standard error increases as the sample size increases. d.) In order to decrease sampling error, you must increase the sample size.  Recall that in general that an increase in the sample size, if randomly drawn, results in a standard error decrease. If a sample size is greater than 30, which of the following characteristics of the distribution of sample means is true? a.) The sample size needs to be increased by 10% so we can apply the Central Limit Theorem. b.) Nothing can be assumed about the distribution of sample means. c.) The distribution of sample means has a binomial distribution. d.) The distribution of sample means is approximately normal.  The central limit theorem tells us that if we randomly draw from the population, then if the sample sizes are sufficiently large, then the sampling distribution will be normal. In general, a sample size of 30 or more is sufficient to guarantee this. Select the true statement about the relationship between sample size and the standard deviation of distribution of sample means, also known as the standard error. a.) As sample size decreases, standard error decreases. b.) Sample size does not have an impact on standard error. c.) As sample size increases, standard error increases. d.) As sample size increases, standard error decreases.  Since the sample size (n) is in the denominator in the standard error (mean) calculation, we know that as n increases the standard error decreases. Which of the following is true about the distribution of sample means? a.) The mean distribution of sample means is normally greater than the population mean. b.) The mean distribution of sample means is normally less than the population mean. c.) The mean distribution of sample means is more variable than population means. d.) The mean distribution of sample means is the same as the population mean.


 Recall that when you randomly sample to create the sampling distribution of the mean, the mean of the population and the mean of the sampling distribution (of the mean) is the same. This is the property of unbiasedness. The law of large numbers and central limit theorem illustrate this property. Jeanette really loves apple-flavored Fruity Tooty candies, but there always seems to be a lot of cherry-flavored candies in each bag. To determine whether this is because cherry candies are so popular or because each bag contains fewer apple candies, Jeanette randomly picks a Fruity Tooty candy from her bag, records its flavor, and places it back in the bag. Each bag contains a mixture of cherry, grape, apple, lemon, and orange flavors. Which statement about Jeanette's distribution of sample proportions is true? a.) The distribution of the count of picking a lemon candy can be modeled as approximately normal if Jeanette picks candies 15 times. b.) The count of drawing an apple candy is not a binomial distribution. c.) The count of drawing an orange candy has a binomial distribution. d.) The distribution of the count of picking a cherry candy cannot be modeled as approximately normal if Jeanette picks candies over 100 times.  Recall that proportions can be put into two categories. If we assume that items are independently chosen, this would follow the binomial distribution. Susan really loves the lemon-flavored Fruity Tooty candies, but there always seems to be a lot of grape-flavored candies in each bag. To determine whether this is because grape candies are so popular or because each bag contains fewer lemon candies, Susan randomly picks a Fruity Tooty candy from her bag, records its flavor, and places it back in the bag. Each bag contains a mixture of cherry, grape, apple, lemon, and orange flavors. Which statement about Susan's distribution of sample proportions is true? a.) The distribution of apple candy can be modeled as normal if Susan picks candies over 75 times. b.) The distribution of lemon candy can be modeled as normal if Susan picks candies 10 times. c.) The distribution of the count of picking a cherry candy cannot be modeled as approximately normal if Susan picks candies over 200 times. d.) The sample proportion of drawing an orange candy is not a binomial distribution.  In general the sampling distribution of the proportions follows a binomial distribution. As you let the sample size get larger, we can use a normal approximation to the binomial and note that the sampling distribution converges to a normal distribution. Theresa really loves orange-flavored Fruity Tooty candies, but there always seems to be a lot of cherry-flavored candies in each bag. To determine whether this is because cherry candies are so popular or because each bag contains fewer orange candies, Theresa randomly picks a


Fruity Tooty candy from her bag, records its flavor, and places it back in the bag. Each bag contains a mixture of cherry, grape, apple, lemon, and orange flavors. Which statement about Theresa's distribution of sample proportions is true? a.) The distribution of lemon candy can be modeled as normal if Theresa picks candies 12 times. b.) The count of drawing an orange candy is not a binomial distribution. c.) The sample proportion of cherry candies has a binomial distribution. d.) The distribution of the count of picking an apple candy cannot be modeled as approximately normal if Theresa picks candies over 300 times.  Recall that proportions can be put into two categories. If we assume that items are independently chosen, this would follow the binomial distribution. Theresa can either pick a cherry candy or not pick a cherry candy. CHALLENEG 2 ackson wants to test an assumption on the number of red candies in a bag of Fruity Tooty's candy. The company claims that five flavors are given an equal distribution in each bag, meaning that the proportion of each color should be 20%. Jackson decides to focus his efforts on examining whether there is a difference in the proportion of red candies than what the company claims. What should Jackson state for the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis? a.) Null hypothesis: Alternative hypothesis: b.) Null hypothesis: Alternative hypothesis: c.) Null hypothesis: Alternative hypothesis: d.) Null hypothesis: Alternative hypothesis:  Since Jackson is testing if the proportion of red is 20%, we can reject that with a larger or smaller percentage. This is a two-tailed test. So the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis would be: Null hypothesis: p = 0.20 Alternative hypothesis: p ≠ 0.20. Peter wants to test an assumption on the number of trees that tested positive for a particular infestation. He decides to focus his efforts on examining if more than 12% of trees have been infested. What should Peter state for the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis?


a.) Null hypothesis: Alternative hypothesis: b.) Null hypothesis: Alternative hypothesis: c.) Null hypothesis: Alternative hypothesis: d.) Null hypothesis: Alternative hypothesis:  Since we are focusing on testing if the proportion of is greater than 12%, we can only reject the null hypothesis if the value is larger. This would be a one-tailed right test. So the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis would be: Null hypothesis: p = 0.12 Alternative hypothesis: p > 0.12. Megan wants to test her assumption on the amount of sleep students are getting. She decides to focus her efforts on examining if students are getting less than eight hours of sleep. What should Megan state for the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis? a.) Null hypothesis: Alternative hypothesis: b.) Null hypothesis: Alternative hypothesis: c.) Null hypothesis: Alternative hypothesis: d.) Null hypothesis: Alternative hypothesis:  Since we are focusing on testing if the mean is less than 8 hours, we can only reject the null hypothesis if the value is smaller. This would be a one-tailed left test. So the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis would be: Null hypothesis: μ = 8 Alternative hypothesis: μ < 8. A school counselor claims that the average number of sleep students get each night is 6 hours. A researcher has taken a well–designed survey and his sample mean is 8.5 hours and sample standard deviation is 0.25. The sample size is 400. Which statement is correct? a.) The sample size should be much more.


b.) The difference exists due to chance since the test statistic is small. c.) The result of the survey is not statistically significant. d.) The result of the survey is statistically significant.  Since we find that 8.5 is much larger than the average 6 hours from a large sample size and relatively small standard deviation, we can conclude there is a statistically significant result. It is also practically different as well. A school authority claims that the average height of students is 178 cm. A researcher has taken a well-designed survey and his sample mean is 177.5 cm and the sample standard deviation is 2. The sample size is 25. Which statement is correct? a.) The sample mean and population mean is the same. b.) The difference exists due to chance since the test statistic is small. c.) The result of the survey is biased. d.) The result of the survey is statistically significant.  With a very small sample size of 25, a difference of 0.5 cm is most likely due to chance. A school authority claims that the average percentage marks of students is 68. A researcher has taken a well–designed survey and his sample mean is 64.5 and sample standard deviation is 2. The sample size is 300. Which statement is correct? a.) The difference exists due to chance since the test statistic is small. b.) The result of the survey is statistically significant. c.) The sample size should be much more. d.) The result of the survey is not statistically significant.  Since we find that 64.5 is much lower than the average 68 from a large sample size and relatively small standard deviation, we can conclude there is a statistically significant result. It is also practically different as well. A spice box manufacturing company is having difficulty filling packets to the required 50 grams. Suppose a business researcher randomly selects 60 boxes, weighs each of them and computes its mean. By chance, the researcher selects packets that have been filled adequately and that is how he gets the mean weight of 50 g, which falls in the "fail to reject" region. The decision is to fail to reject the null hypothesis even though population mean is NOT actually 50 g.


Which kind of error has the researcher done in this case? a.) Type II b.) Type I c.) Neither d.) Both  Since the sample evidence provides evidence the null should not be rejected, when in fact the null hypothesis is false, this is called Type II error. A sugar box manufacturing company is accurately making 100 g packets. Suppose a business researcher randomly selects 100 boxes, weighs each of them and computes its mean. Due to non-random selection or by chance, a researcher selects packets that have not been adequately filled and that is how he gets the mean weight of 98 g, which falls in the rejection region. The decision is to reject the null hypothesis even though the population mean is actually 100 g. Which kind of error has the researcher done in this case? a.) Type II b.) Type I c.) Both d.) Neither  Since the sample evidence provides evidence the null should be rejected, when in fact the null hypothesis is true, this is called Type I error. A capsule manufacturing company is having difficulty filling capsules to the required 100 milligrams. Suppose a business researcher randomly selects 80 capsules, weighs each of them and computes its mean. By chance, the researcher selects capsules that have been filled adequately and that is how he gets the mean weight of 100 mg, which falls in the "fail to reject" region. The decision is to fail to reject the null hypothesis even though population mean is NOT actually 100 mg. Which kind of error has the researcher done in this case? a.) Both b.) Type II c.)


Type I d.) Neither  Since the sample evidence provides evidence the null should not be rejected, when in fact the null hypothesis is false, this is called Type II error. Which of the following statements is FALSE? a.) The probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is true is called a Type I Error. b.) Alpha (α) is equal to the probability of making a Type I error. c.) The power of a hypothesis test is the probability of not making a Type II error. d.) A smaller sample size would increase the effectiveness of a hypothesis test.  If you decrease the sample size, the ability to detect differences decreases which increases the possibility of error. So the effectiveness of a test would decrease and not increase. Which of the following statements is FALSE? a.) The significance level is the probability of making a Type I error. b.) The probability of rejecting the null hypothesis in error is called a Type I Error. c.) A larger sample size would increase the power of a significance test. d.) ility to detect differenceExpanding the sample size can decrease the power of a hypothesis test.  If you increase the sample size, the abs increases, which reduces Type II error. So this means the power of the test has increased. Which of the following statements is FALSE? a.) Reducing the significance level (α) can increase a test's effectiveness. b.) A larger sample size would increase the effectiveness of a hypothesis test. c.) Alpha (α) is equal to the probability of making a Type I error. d.) Expanding the sample size can increase the power of a hypothesis test.  Recall that alpha is Type I error and corresponds to the threshold we use of acceptable Type I error. So if we increase alpha we are opening ourselves up to more Type I error. This is not an increase in the test's effectiveness. Susan hypothesizes that the students of a private school will score higher than the general population. Susan records a sample mean equal to 578 and states the hypothesis as vs . Select the best description for this type of test.


a.) Two-tailed test b.) Lower-tailed test c.) Right-tailed test d.) Left-tailed test  Since the alternative hypothesis, µ > 572, corresponds to a value that is larger than the null values, we call this a one-tailed upper tail test or right-tailed test.

Since we have 0.04 (p-value) is greater than 0.03 (significance level), then we should FAIL to reject Ho. A recent article claims that the state of Illinois has low tuition rates for its colleges and universities. Cate decides to research the cost of tuition for different colleges in Illinois. The average tuition in Illinois is $28,950 with a standard deviation of $3,470. Which type of inference test should Cate use? a.) One-sample t-test b.) Chi-squared test for goodness-of-fit c.) One-sample z-test d.) Two-way ANOVA  Assuming we have a large enough sample, since we are testing one group's mean relative to a hypothesized value, this would be a one-sample z-test. Tyler wants to determine if an individual's age affects whether or not they like jazz, rock, or country music.


Which type of inference test should Tyler use? a.) One-sample t-test b.) Two-way ANOVA c.) One proportion z-test d.) Chi-squared test for association/independence  If we break up individuals in age groups and test whether they like or dislike jazz, we would be testing the proportion or counts between the groups. This is testing the association between age and like of jazz, so the appropriate test would be a chi-square test for independence. A research company is claiming that 75% of college students shop online. Jamila takes a sample of 200 college students and finds that 120 college students shop online. Which type of inference test should Jamila use? a.) Two-way ANOVA b.) One proportion z-test c.) One-sample t-test d.) Chi-squared test for homogeneity  Since we are testing a proportion from one group using a sample that is of sufficient size, we would use a one proportion z-test. CHALLENEG3 The marks scored by students in a geology exam are normally distributed.

Answers are rounded to the nearest whole percent. a.) 28% b.) 43% c.) 57% d.) 72%  Recall to find the probability we need to convert to a z-score and then go to standard normal chart. We can note: Looking at a z-table, a z-score of 0.57 corresponds with a percentage of 0.7157 or about 0.72 = 72%. However, this is the percentage for the lower distribution. We want the value for the upper, so subtract this from 100%: 100% - 72% = 28%. Spencer sampled 50 students of a private school who were questioned about their scores in Mathematics.

The critical z-score for a two-sided test at a 3% significance level is 2.17. d.) The critical z-score for a left-tailed test at a 25% significance level is -0.40.  Recall that when a test is two-sided, we have to split up the percentage for both tails. A 3% significance level means we will have 3% / 2 = 1.5% in each tail. We can start by finding the value in the upper tail as close to (100% - 1.5%) = 98.5% or 0.985 as possible. In a z-table, the probability of 0.985 corresponds to a z-score of 2.17.

Spencer randomly samples the out-of-state tuition and fees for 25 public universities and found a mean of $21,032 with a standard deviation of $2,494. Using the alternative hypothesis that µ < $21,706, Spencer found a z test statistic of -1.35. Given the data provided, what is the p-value of the z-test statistic? Answer choices are rounded to the thousandths place. a.) 0.911 b.) 0.829 c.) 0.089 d.) 0.171  Recall for a p-value, it must be a value that is as extreme and more extreme than the test statistics. If we go to the chart for the z-score and go to the row of -1.3 and to the column

Mary would use the population standard deviation to calculate a t-distribution. b.) The t-distribution that Mary uses is taller than a standard distribution. c.) Mary would use the sample standard deviation to calculate a t-statistic. d.) The value for the degrees of freedom for Mary's sample population is six. e.) The t-distribution that Mary uses has skinnier tails than a standard distribution. Answer Rationale Recall with a one-sample t-test, in order to get the t-statistic, we use the sample standard deviation, s. For the t-distribution, we use the degrees of freedom to find the critical value and the degrees of freedom are n-1. So in this case n =7 and df = 7-1 = 6. The t-distribution is a little bit shorter than the standard normal distribution and a little heavier on the tails. Mark is using a one-sample t-test on the following group: Subject #15: 7.5 hours Subject #27: 6 hours

Amy believes that the average age in her hometown in Iowa is not equal to this average and decided to sample 30 citizens in her neighborhood. Using the alternative hypothesis that µ ≠ 531, Amy found a t-test statistic of 1.311. What is the p-value of the test statistic? Answer choices are rounded to the hundredths place. a.) 0.10 b.) 0.20 c.) 0.07 d.) 0.05  In order to find the p-value we first need the degrees of freedom because we are running a ttest. The df = n-1 = 30-1 = 29. If Amy is using the alternative hypothesis, µ ≠ 531, this is a two-tailed test. In order to find the p-value, we simply need to find the probability of being as extreme or more extreme as our current test statistic in one-tail and then multiply it by 2. Another way to describe this is it is the tail probability/area. If we go to the df row of 29 and then scan to the right we see 1.311 is in the 0.10 column. So if we multiply this by 2, we find 0.20 or 20% in both of the tails. So the p-value is 0.20. The average weight of a cereal box is 25 ounces. William believes the cereal boxes at his local grocery store are less than the claimed average and decided to sample 15 cereal boxes from this grocery store.

Answer choices are rounded to the hundredths place. a.) 0.05 b.) 0.07


c.) 0.01 d.) 0.02  In order to find the p-value, we first need the degrees of freedom because we are running a ttest. The df = n-1 = 15-1 = 14. Since this is a one-tailed test, in order to find the p-value we simply need to find the probability of being as extreme or more extreme as our current test statistic. Another way to describe this is it is the tail probability/area. If we go to the df row of 14 and then scan to the right we see 2.624 is in the 0.01 column. This indicates there is 0.01 or 1% in the tail. So the p-value is 0.01. The average SAT score in California is 531.

Answer choices are rounded to the nearest hundredth. a.) 15.67 b.) 16.11 c.) 18.50 d.) 15.83  In order to get the expected count we use the formula: The row total of Group B is 13 + 12 + 22 = 47. The column total of Green Eyes is 19 + 12 + 16 + 17 = 64. The total of the whole table can be found by adding all values, or 190. So the expected frequency of Green eyes and Group B is: A table represents a possibility of association between hair color and eye color.

In order to determine if the eye color of blue and blonde hair colors differ significantly, a chi square test for homogeneity should be performed. What is the expected frequency of Blonde Hair and Blue Eyes? Answer choices are rounded to the nearest hundredth. a.) 25.50 b.) 27.67 c.) 28.41 d.) 27.25  In order to get the expected count we use the formula: The row total of blonde hair is 25 + 27 + 31 = 83.


the column total of blue eyes is 25 + 26 = 51. The total of the whole table can be found by adding all values, or 149. The expected frequency of blonde hair and blue eyes is: A table represents a possibility of association between eye color and hair color.
