21. A student answers a multiple-choice examination question that offers four possible answers. Suppose that the prob-
ability that the student knows the answer to the question is 0.4 and the probability that the student will guess is 0.6.
Assume that if the student guesses, the probability of not selecting the correct answer is 0.5. If the student correctly
answers a question, what is the probability that the student really knew the correct answer?
(a) 0.5714.
(b) 0.5.
(c) 0.
(d) 0.25.
22. The Wilcoxon rank sum test is a nonparametric equivalent of
(a) Chi-squared test for goodness of fit.
(b) Chi-squared test for independence.
(c) Paired t- test.
(d) Two independent samples t- test.
23. The random variable X is from some distribution (that is not normal) with a mean of 5 and a standard devi-
ation of 2. Is the distribution of X for a random sample of 16 still a normal distribution? If so, what are the
parameters?
(a) Yes, XN (5, ).
(b) Yes, X N ( #)
(e) Yes, X~ N (5, ).
(d) No, since the sample size is small, the Central Limit Theorem does not apply and it is no longer sufficient
to use the normal distribution for inferences.
24. Suppose X- b(n = 18, p = 0.7). Determine P(1< X < 9).
(a) 0.0210.
(b) 0.0596.
(c) 0.9790.
(d) 0.9404.
25. An engineer found that by adding small amounts of a compound to rechargeable batteries during manufacture,
she could extend their lifetimes. She experimented with different amounts of the additive, g, and measured the
hours they lasted to power a light bulb. The following equation gives the fitted model:
j = 1.84 + 0.28z.
What is the predicted extended life for a battery with 3g of the additive?
(a) 2.12.
(b) 1.84.
(c) 0.28.
(d) 2.68.
