The value of i

What is the square root of -1?
100
A type of non-statistical sampling.

What is Convenience sampling?

100

This statistical value measures how strong the linear relationship is between to variables. It also indicates whether two variables have a positive or negative linear relationship.

What is r, the correlation coefficient?

100

THIS value determines how well a regression model fits a data set.

What is R2, coefficient of determination?

100

The best model for a data set will have the highest value for this.

What is R2?

200

The number of rows and columns matrix A2x1.

What are 2 rows and 1 column?

200

Having a sample that is THIS is the most efficient way to reduce bias.

What is random?

200

A negative r value would indicates THIS kind of correlation between two variables. 

What is a negative correlation?

200
An rvalue of 0.95 would indicate the regression model is THIS.

What is a (very) good fit for the data?

200
Data that is consistently increasing OR consistently decreasing should use this type of model.

What is linear regression model?

300

This is done to get rid of square root in the bottom of fractions. 

What is rationalizing (the denominator)?

300

Double Jeopardy

What is sample size?

300

R values for comparing heat index to outside temperature and humidity were found to be:

0.94 (heat index vs. temperature) and

0.87 (heat index vs. humidity)

This variable would be the better predictor of heat index.

What is temperature?

300

The linear regression equation for this data set.

What is y = 10.23x - 0.8?

300

This type of model should be used to fit data that increases AND decreases at a given rate. 

What is quadratic?

400

The dimension of the product matrix produced by A2x3 X B3x1.

What is 2x1?

400

A study aimed to find the average height of high schoolers at WHS. They made two completed lists: one with all the female student and another with male students. They then split each list into 4 separate lists based on grade level and randomly selected 10 male and 10 female students from each grade to be in the study. These subgroups are referred to as THIS.

What are "strata"?

400

Double Jeopardy

What is -1?

400

The equation of the curve of best fit for this data set. 

What is y = -0.23x+ 6.2x + 12.07?

400

This kind of model is likely the best fit for data modeling trends in a population.

What is exponential?

500

For a complex number a + bi, this is a - bi.

What is the complex conjugate?

500

In THIS method of sampling, individuals from pre-existing groups within the population are chosen to be in the sample. The existing groups are also called this.

What is cluster?

500

The r2 value for a quadratic model fit to a data set was found to be 0.98. The r2 value for a linear model fit to the data set was found to be 0.31. Therefore the r value for the data is likely close to THIS value.

What is 0?

500

The average monthly temperatures in Elon, NC were recorded for 7 month are are reported in the data table. 

THIS kind of regression model would be the best fit for this data.

What is quadratic?
