About the EXAM
Still the same topic…
Teaching, Learning and Life…! Your course with awesome young intelligent
students, from several parts of the world, with an extraordinary capability of
transforming willingness into work to produce knowledge and success, you are a
Team…! Keep going but remember (or do not forget that) life is a big composition
of several important and crucial things: balance them, go for them, smile and enjoy.
Well, you know what?… your Quizz grades were considered as a sample of Quizz
grades for this STATISTICS II course.
Note: the size of the statistical population will be considered infinity.
For each question in Groups I to III indicate only one answer in the table in page 8
Each correct answer is worth 0,70 values
Each wrong answer is worth 0.10 negative (-0.10).
Each answer blank or poorly marked is worth 0.
Group I
The first statistical analyses were about the students and their first in-class Quizz
grades: at this stage, the very beginning, students were still uncomfortable about
what they were expected to do and show… the first in-class Quizz grades sample
provided the following indicators:
73 73
xi 1253,38 (x i x) 2 812,6722877
i 1 i 1
1. The standard error of the mean
a) cannot be estimated, because the sample size is greater than 30
b) can be estimated and is aprox. 0,396
c) can be estimated and is aprox. 0,393
d) none of the others
2. A Confidence Interval (CI) for the first in-class Quizz mean grade was
computed: [16,40;17,94]! This is a … confidence level CI computed using a
… score
a) 95% / t
b) 90% / t
c) 95% / Z
d) 90% / Z

3. The CI computed before (question 2.) is meaningful…
a) True!
b) if the standard deviation of the first in-class Quizz grades computed with
the sample is Normally distributed
c) only if the first in-class Quizz grades are Normally distributed
d) if 50% of the first in-class Quizz grades are greater than the mean value
4. A p-value was computed and it is 0,0005! We know that a statistical test has
been performed and that, with a usual level of confidence,
a) the test statistics is greater than the critical value
b) we fail to reject the Null hypothesis
c) we reject the Null hypothesis
d) none of the others
5. The first in class Quizz is the most difficult one! Consider the following
hypotheses: Ho: µ=17 and H1: µ>17. With a 95% confidence level,
5.1 The critical value is equal to
a) 17
b) aprox.17,6
c) aprox. 17,8
d) none of the others
5.2 We may state that
a) we do not have enough information to decide
b) we fail to reject Ho
c) we reject Ho
d) none of the others
5.2 If a two-sided test would be considered instead, with the same
confidence level, the corresponding critical value would
a) decrease
b) increase
c) be the same
d) none of the others
