100

Treatments are not assigned, just observed. Important for discovering trends and relationships

What is Observational Studies?

100

Events tha have no outcomes in common are disjoint

What is the Addition Rule?

100

Points of a distribution with large residuals 

What are Outliers?

100

What is the X2 Test of independence and homogeneity degrees of Freedom?

200

The group used to compare the factor to for effectiveness.

What is the Control Group?

200
When one of two disjoint events must occur. 

The complementary rule

200

The science of collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data.

What is Satistics?

200

Two mutually exclusive outcomes, fixed number of trials (n), each trial is independent, the probability of success is the same for all trials

What are the properties for a binomial distribution?

300

statistic ± critical value (standard deviation of the statistic)

What is the equation to determine Confidence Interval?

300

Voluntary response, convenience sampling, under coverage, non-response, wording of the questions. 

What are sources of Bias? 

300

The Least Square Regression Line cannot be used to find values outside of the range of the original data. 

What is Extrapolation?
300

Used to estimate the Population Parameter

What is Confidence Interval

300

Two mutually exclusive outcomes, each trial is independent, probability of success is the same for all trials, not a fixed number of trials.

400

Control, Randomize, Replicate, and Block.

What are the four principles of an experimental design?

400

The four conditions of a Bernoulli Trial 

What is only two possible outcomes (success or failure), the probability of success is constant, trials are independent, fixed number of trials?

400

Assuming the null is true, the probability of obtaining the observed result or more extreme

What is the P-value?

400

If two marbles are selected at random from a bag containing 6 red marbles and 4 blue marbles, what are the odds that both marbles picked are red?

6/10 (5/9) = 30/90 = 1/3

500

(row total)(column total) / grand total

500

A count of a random variable. 

What is discrete?

500

The long-run relative frequency of repeated independent events gets closer and closer to a single value

What is the Law of Large Numbers?

500
