Answer : C

A random sample is selected from a population of measurements. The mean of the sample is not equal to the mean of the population. This is due to:

  • E. none of the above


Answer : A

A population of size 1,000,000 has mean 42 and standard deviation 6. Sixty random samples, each of size 15 are selected. According to the Central Limit Theorem the distribution of the sixty sample means has a standard deviation of approximately:

  • A. 6
  • B. 6/42
  • C. 6/15
  • D. 6/ 15
  • E. none of the above


Answer : D

  • B. value, statistic
  • C. statistic, parameter
  • D. parameter, value
  • E. parameter, statistic


Answer : C

Deming called the technique of studying a sample to gain understanding of the distribution of a population an enumerative study. His main objection to these studies was:

  • A. they are too difficult to perform correctly
  • B. they require extensive use of computers
  • C. they assume a stable distribution
  • D. random samples are expensive to obtain
  • E. these studies have a high probability of Type II error


Answer : C

  • C. A and B can’t both occur
  • D. the probability that A occurs is 1-(probability that B occurs)
  • E. A and B have different standard deviations
