What is a type 1 error?

When you find convincing evidence to reject the null hypothesis, but the null hypothesis is true.

Katie wants to run a t - test to figure out how many cars families in her town own compare the national average. The national average is 1.9 and her sample mean was 1.5 and a standard deviation was .50. She took a sample of 44 randomly selected families. She wants to know if towns population mean differs from the national mean, what is her p - value?

the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is false

Ellie was trying to find the Massachusetts population mean of number of students in a high school. She believed the mean number of high schools would have over 2,000 students. With her sampling data she found a p value of .13, what conclusion can you draw with this p - value at a significance level of .05. 

Since the p - value of .13 is greater than a = .05 we fail to reject the null. There is no convincing evidence to suggest that the true population mean of students in a Massachusetts high school is greater than 2000.

According to an online website, the distribution of skittle colors in a bag should be 25% red, 25% green, 25% blue, and 25% yellow. Dan wants to test if that distribution will hold true for his mega bag of 200 Skittles. What test should he perform?

What is a type 2 error and what is the probability of it?

A type 2 error is when you do not find convincing evidence to reject the null hypothesis but the null hypothesis is false. The probability of it is 1 - (probability of power).

Chloe took a sample of 100 students and she wants to investigate the mean difference in scores of students on the placement test. She recorded the score of each student before and after the student took a math course that prepares them for the test. Chloe wants to know if there is convincing statistical evidence for the appropriate test at the 5% significance level.

You separate the population into rows, and then randomly select two people in each row. What type of random sampling is this?

Stratified Random Sample

Describe the steps to carry out a random sample. 

First, you must label each of your experimental units. Next, you must use a random number generator or other random method to select the desired number of integers. Lastly, you must identify the experimental units that correspond to the selected integers.
