  1. MC Notecards DO NOT WRITE ON THIS PAGE- CLASS SET After you finish your quiz, copy down each problem on a notecard and answer them. Please remember to bring your own notecards beginning Monday- The notecards will be a grade at the end of the semester, so please make sure that you are completing them and keeping up with them. If you don’t finish copying them, go online to get them. I will be looking to see you completed them on Monday. No excuses  Hope you have a Wonderful time at Prom! Happy Prom Day Eve!

  2. MC Notecard #5 The American Medical Association (AMA) wishes to determine the percentage of obstetricians who are considering leaving the profession because of the rapidly increasing number of lawsuits against obstetricians. How large a sample should be taken to find the answer to within ±3% at the 95% Confidence level? A) 6 B) 33 C) 534 D) 752 E) 1068

  3. MC Notecard #6 Suppose you did 10 independent tests of the form vs , each at the significance level. What is the probability of committing a Type I error and incorrectly rejecting a true with at least one of the 10 tests? A) .05 B) .40 C) .50 D) .60 E) .95

  4. MC Notecard #7 Which of the following can affect the value of the correlation r? • A change in measurement units • A change in which variable is called x and which is called y • Adding the same constant to all values of the x-variable • All of the above can affect the r value. • None of the above can affect the r value.

  5. MC Notecard #8 There are two games involving flipping a coin. In the first game you win a prize if you can throw between 45% and 5% heads. In the second game you win if you can throw more than 80% heads. For each game would you rather flip the coin 30 times or 300 times? • 30 times for each game • 300 times for each game • 30 times for the first game, 300 times for the second • 300 times for the first game, 30 times for the second • The outcomes of the games do not depend on the number of flips.

  6. MC Notecard #9 Which among the following would result in the narrowest confidence interval? • Small sample size and 95% confidence • Small sample size and 99% confidence • Large sample size and 95% confidence • Large sample size and 99% confidence • This cannot be answered without knowing an appropriate standard deviation.

  7. MC Notecard #10 Changing from a 90% confidence interval estimate for a population proportion to a 99% confidence interval estimate, with all other things being equal, • increases the interval size by 9% • decreases the interval size by 9% • increases the interval size by 57% • decreases the interval size by 57% • This question cannot be answered without knowing the sample size.

  8. MC Notecard #11 A population is normally distributed with mean 25. Consider all samples of size 10. The variable • Has a normal distribution • Has a t-distribution with df=10 • Has a t-distribution with df=9 • Has neither a normal distribution or a t distribution • Has either a normal or a t-distribution depending on the characteristics of the population standard deviation.
