Business statistics is a scientific approach to decision-making in the face of risk and is used in many
disciplines, such as financial analysis, econometrics, auditing, production and operations, and marketing
research. The main objective of business statistics is to make inferences about certain characteristics of a
population based on information contained in a random sample from the entire population.

Statistical forecasting concentrates on using the past to predict the future by identifying trends, patterns
and business drives within the data to develop a forecast. This forecast is referred to as a statistical
forecast because it uses mathematical formulas to identify the patterns and trends while testing the
results for mathematical reasonableness and confidence. Statistical forecasting is used for forecasting
sales and budget.



Question #1

Statistical forecasting deals with estimating the likelihood of an event - Answer The correct answer is:
True

,How to solve this question?



The passage says that statistical forecasting concentrates on using the past to identify patterns and
trends. This information is used to predict the future, such as forecasting sales and budget. Therefore,
the answer is "True".

Question #2

Using statistics in decision-making eliminates business risks



Answer op - Answer The correct answer is: Can't say



How to solve this question?



The information given is that business statistics are used for decision-making in the face of risk. There is
no suggestion in the passage that such use eliminates business risks, and the answer therefore is "Can't
say".



Question #3

There is no kid that doesn't like chocolate.



What inference can be drawn from this sentence?



Answer options

,A. Everyone who likes chocolate is a kid.

B. All kids like chocolate.

C. There are kids that don't like chocolate.

D. Only kids like chocolate. - Answer The correct answer is: All kids like chocolate.



How to solve this question?



A double negative (no kid + doesn't like) turns into a positive. A no statement turns into an all statement.
Kid => likes chocolate



Soy- and rice- based diets are very popular in Third World countries. The soy bean has a higher phytate
content than any other grain or legume that has been studied. Phytate is an organic acid, present in the
bran or hulls of all seeds, which blocks the uptake of essential minerals - calcium, magnesium, iron and
especially zinc - in the intestinal tract.

Soy beans seem to be highly resistant to many phytate-reducing techniques such as long, slow cooking.
Only a long period of fermentation will significantly reduce the phytate content of soy beans. Thus,
fermented products such as tempeh and miso provide nourishment that is easily assimilated. When
precipitated soy products are consumed with meat, the mineral-blocking effects of the phytates are
reduced.



Question #4

People in Third World countries have low levels of calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc



Answer options



True

False

Can't say - Answer The correct answer is: Can't say



How to solve this question?

, Even though phytate blocks the uptake of these minerals, there is no evidence given that people in third-
world countries have low levels of these compounds. The passage says that soy- and rice-based diets are
very popular in these countries, but it does not go far enough to be able to say definitively that persons
are deficient in these essentials. Even if the statement is true, it is not supported by the information in
the passage, and the response is "Can't say".



Question #5

Three of the following are alike in some way: Finch, Crow, Ostrich, Robin.

Please select the one that is different.



Answer options



A. Finch

B. Crow

C. Ostrich

D. Robin - Answer The correct answer is: Ostrich



How to solve this question?



All are birds, but the ostrich is the only one that cannot fly.



Question #6

Gavin beat Jerry in a marathon race wearing Dada running shoes. Dada came out, on the same day, with
an ad campaign saying that their new Dada shoes made Gavin win.



Which of the following facts weakens Dada's conclusion?



Answer options



A. Jerry was unwell on the day of the marathon.
