100

A relationship where both variables increase together.

What is a positive correlation?

100

A group in an experiment that does not receive the treatment.

What is a control group?

100

Random, 10%, and large counts conditions.

What are the conditions for a 1-proportion z-interval?

100

Events that cannot happen at the same time.

What are mutually exclusive events?

200

A correlation coefficient of 0.92.

What is a strong positive linear association?

200

Using a large enough number of subjects to ensure reliable results.

What is replication?

200

A 95% confidence interval ranges from 0.42 to 0.58.

What is an interval that captures the true population proportion with 95% confidence?

200

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) − P(A and B)

What is the general addition rule?

300

The amount the predicted y changes for every one-unit increase in x.

What is the slope of the least-squares regression line?

300

A study that does not assign treatments.

What is an observational study?

300

The chance of getting your sample results or more extreme if the null hypothesis is true.

What is a p-value?

300

8 out of 10 marbles are red or green.

What is the probability of selecting a red or green marble?

400

The observed value is 10 and the predicted value is 8.5.

What is a residual of 1.5?

400

Dividing experimental units into groups before randomly assigning treatments.

What is blocking?

400

A confidence interval for a population proportion is calculated to be (0.31, 0.45). This is the margin of error.

What is 0.07?

400

The probability of all tails in 5 coin flips.

What is (0.5)^5 or 0.03125?

500

64% of the variability in y is explained by the regression model.

What is the meaning of an R² value of 0.64?

500

A method where neither the participant nor evaluator knows the treatment assignment.

What is a double-blind experiment?

500

You fail to reject the null hypothesis that the population proportion is 0.25, but in reality, the true proportion is different.

What is a Type II Error?

500

The expected gain in a game where you win $10 with P=0.2 and lose $2 with P=0.8.

What is 0.4 dollars?
