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; they are also known as disjoint events.

What are mutually exclusive events?

200

A correlation coefficient of 0.92 indicates this type of relationship.

What is a strong positive linear association?

200

This involves using a large enough number of experimental units to improve the reliability of observed differences.

What is replication?

200

A 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of students who prefer online learning is calculated to be (0.42, 0.58). What is this range of numbers called.

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

The calculation for a desired outcome. Also known as "chance."

What is probability?

400

This is the value calculated by subtracting the predicted value (8.5) from the observed value (10) in a regression analysis.

What is a residual of 1.5?

400

Dividing experimental units into groups based on a similar characteristic 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. Also, the probability of getting 5 heads in a row when flipping a fair coin.

What is 0.4 dollars and 1/32?
