the binomial distribution can be used.
12:
Correct answer/s:

Correct answer/s:
16:
Correct answer/s:
(a) The samples are independent of one another.
17:
Correct answer/s:
(c) The area to the left of z = --4.80 plus the area to the right of z = 4.80 equals the p-value.
18:
Correct answer/s:
(b) It appears that the vegetarian diet and the diet that included lovastatin produced a similar
lowering of cholesterol.
(d) The analysis of variance assumes equal population variances and normality of the response
variable.
19:
Correct answer/s:
(c) H = 12/ (n(n+1))∑ R2 / ni-3(n+1). In the formula, n = 46, n1=16, n2= 16, n3 =14, R1 =485, R2=
136, and R3 =460.
20:
Correct answer/s:
(b) The area to the left of -0.833 is the one-tailed p-value and equals 0.206.
(c) The area to the left of -0.833 plus the area to the right of 0.833 is the two tailed p-value and
is equal to 0.411.
21:
Correct answer/s:
(a) When the two samples are jointly ranked, one has a sum of ranks equal to 229 and the other
has a sum of ranks equal to 236.
22:
Correct answer/s:
23:
Correct answer/s:
(c) The size of the car and the fatality rate are inversely related.
24:
Correct answer/s:
25:
Correct answer/s:
26:
Correct answer/s:
(a) For the analysis to be valid, the differences must be normally distributed.
(c) The null hypothesis in the analysis above is rejected for α= 0.05.
27:
Correct answer/s:
(c) When the absolute differences are ranked, the sum of the ranks is 231.
(d) This is the test to do if the differences are not normally distributed.
28:
Correct answer/s:
(a) Stat)-----Basic ----Statistics----2 Variances is the Minitab pull-down to perform the test.
(b) The Excel paste function FTEST is the Excel function that performs the test.
(c) The test assumes that you have two independent samples from populations that are
normally distributed.
29:
Correct answer/s:
(a) The night group is less variable than the day group
(b) The test is based on the F-distribution with 7 and 7 degrees of freedom.
(c) At α= 0.05, we would conclude that the two groups are not equally variable.
(d) The F-test is based on the assumption that both samples come from normally distributed
populations.
30:
Correct answer/s:
(b) There is more variability among the day shift than the night shift.
(c) The p-value is 2(0.002321809) =0.005.
31:
Correct answer/s:
32:
Correct answer/s:
(b) The purpose of blocking is to reduce the variation caused by differences between
experimental units.
(c) In a block design, the total variation is partitioned into block variation, treatment variation,
and error variation.
33:
Correct answer/s:
34:
Correct answer/s:
(a) The row sums given in the summary are the total sales for the supermarkets in the study.
(b) The column variances are the variances for the displays.
(c) The F critical value for rows is the point on the F-distribution curve having 4 and 8 degrees of
freedom where there is only 5% of the area beyond it.
35:
Correct answer/s:
(c) The sum of ranks for display 2 is 5 because display 2 is last in sales at each of the 5
supermarkets.
36:
Correct answer/s:
(d) 0.91
37:
Correct answer/s:
(b) The least-squares line connecting in-state and out-state tuition is out-state =1339 + 2.49 in-
state.
(c) For every $1 increase in in-state tuition, out-state tuition increases $2.49.
(d) The correlation coefficient between in-state tuition and out-state tuition is square root of
0:828.
38:
Correct answer/s:
(b) 95% of the values of out-state tuition fees fall within 2s = $4156.68 of the line connecting in-
state tuition with out-state tuition.
39:
Correct answer/s:
(d) 8.8
40:
Correct answer/s:
(d) At α= 0.05 and for a one-tailed research hypothesis CUC and KSW have a significant effect on
CSFINAL.
41:
Correct answer/s:
(a) A point estimate of the CSFINAL score for a student with HSAP = 1, CCAP = 1, CUC ¼ 4, PECS =
2, who scored 20 on the KSW, and who scored 40 on the MC, is 26.231.
(b) A point estimate of the CSFINAL mean score for all students with HSAP = 1, CCAP = 1, CUC =4,
PECS =2, who scored 20 on the KSW, and who scored 40 on the MC, is 26.231.
(c) A 95% prediction interval for a student with HSAP =1, CCAP =1, CUC =4, PECS =2, who scored
20 on the KSW, and who scored 40 on the MC, is (16.069, 36.393).
(d) A 95% confidence interval of the CSFINAL mean score for all students with HSAP = 1, CCAP =
1, CUC = 4, PECS = 2, who scored 20 on the KSW, and who scored 40 on the MC, is (22.397,
30.065).
42:
Correct answer/s:
(b) A 95% confidence interval for the variable KSW is -0.070 to 0.853.
(c) The p-value =0.005 in the ANOVA table is a measure of the overall utility of the model.
43:
Correct answer/s:
(a) The equation of the best regression model with one independent variable is CSFINAL =14.478
+ 0.60 KSW.
(b) The equation of the best regression model with two independent variables is CSFINAL=
15.618 + 0.67 KSW - 0.69 CUC.
(c) The equation in step 3 accounts for 36.29% (adjusted) of the variation in the CSFINAL grades.
44:
Correct answer/s:
(a) At α= 0.05, the null hypothesis would be rejected no matter which of the three methods is
used.
45:
Correct answer/s:
(a) 0 ≤ X ≤ 9 or 21 ≤ X ≤ 30, where X = the number who prefer brand A over brand B
46:
Correct answer/s:

47:
Correct answer/s:
(b) The expected numbers are 229, 360, 303, 65, and 43.

0.05.
50:
Correct answer/s:
(a) The Pearson correlation coefficient finds the correlation coefficient between x and y
(columns 1 and 2).
(b) The Spearman rank correlation coefficient finds the correlation coefficient between the ranks
of x and y (columns 3 and 4).
