|
the sample mean
|
|
Fill in the blank: Central Limit Theorem allows us to compute probabilities on ___________ using the standard Normal table provided the sample size of the random sample is sufficiently large.
|
x-bar
|
|
A theoretical sampling distribution of a statistic consists of
|
the values of a statistic from all possible samples
|
|
The probability of an event can be defined as
|
the fraction of time the event will occur if the random phenomenon is repeated many times.
|
|
On a control chart, under what circumstance is the process out of control?
|
- A run of 9 sample means above the centerline or below the centerline - A sample mean below the lower limit - A sample mean above the upper limit

|
When its definition, is
you play solitaire, you either win or lose. Therefore, the probability of winning, according to |
approximated by playing lots of times and dividing the number of times you win by the
number of times you play. |
|
To detect association between the row and column variables of a two-way table, what do we examine?
|
Whether the conditional distribution in every row (or every column) equals the corresponding
marginal distribution. |
|
In a three way table, Simpson's paradox occurs whenever
|
the direction of association between two variables reverses because the third variable that
interacts strongly with the other two is ignored. |
|
Which is the purpose of a residual plot?
|
to measure how strong the relationship is between the residuals and the regression equation.
|
|
Which one of the following is NOT affected by outliers?
|
Median
