How do you find mean for population and sample?

(Sum of all values in population)/(Population Size)

(Sum of all values in Sample)/(Sample Size)

The p-value represents the probability that the Null Hypothesis is true

False.

How does a Bimodal Distribution look like? 

More than one "Peak" in the histogram almost like two different histograms combined into one. 

200

A bag contains 7 blue marbles 6 green marbles and 3 yellow marbles. What is the probability of randomly selecting a yellow marble?

3/16 or 0.18

200

What is the Formula for Margin of Error? 

Z*ơ /sqrt(n)

ơ= Population Standard Deviation

N= Sample Size

Z= Critical Value 

200

If we gather data about means of something what interval do we use?

T-interval

200

 Correlation=Causation 


False.

What is Multimodal?

When there are two or more "peaks" in the data which are called Modes. This is why it's called "Multimodal" 

300

A big candy jar contains 3 red, 5 blue and 8 green M&M'S. If Jack randomly takes out one M&M without replacement, what is the probability that the M&M is red?

3/15 or 0.2

300

What is the Formula for Chi Square Test of Independence 

x2=(Observed Value-Expected Value)/(Expected Value)

300

What are the Conditions for a T-interval? 

Random Sample
Independence
N>30
Sample size should be reasonably symmetric with few to none outliers.  

300

In a Hypothesis test, The Null is typically the one that is being supported   

False.

What is a probability distribution that is used to model data that appears to be Bell curved and Symmetric 

Normal Distribution

David has a Jar of marbles. In the jar there are 7 Blue Marbles 10 Red Marbles and 3 Green Marbles. If he randomly takes 2 Marbles out of the Jar without replacement what is the probability that both of the Marbles are Red?

(10/20)(9/19) or 0.2368

400

What is the formula for confidence interval of slope? 

b± t*SE(b)

b=Slope of Regression line
t=Critical value of t-distribution
SE(b)= Standard Error of Slope

What is 2 Var Stats Used for?

When you have 2 list of data and want to find Mean, Standard deviation, N, Min, Max, Q1, Q3, Median

A Type II error occurs when we incorrectly fail to reject the Null. 

True

400

This Distribution is often used when the Population Standard Deviation is unknown

T-Distrubution

Tom loves when there are different colors, so one day he decides to test out his luck. He gets a jar with 10 Green balls, 7 Red balls and 3 Blue balls and he randomly takes out 3 balls from the Jar without replacement. What is the probability that all 3 Balls are different colors?

40/(20*19*18)=0.037

What is the Formula for Chi Square Goodness of fit test? 

x2=(sum of all categories)(O-E)^2/E

O= Observed Frequency
E= Expected Frequency

500
For Inference, what is the formula for test static for one-sample-t-test?

t=(x̄-μ)/(s/sqrt(n))

x̄= Sample Mean
μ= Predicted Population mean
s= Sample standard deviation
n= Sample Size

(coefficient of determination) Rcan be negative 

False
It is a measure of variance and ranges from 0 to 1

500

A term which is used to describe when the data follows one side of the tail.
