Z-Score - Data points only. Measurement of a scores relationship to the mean. A statistical measure that indicates the number of standard deviations a data point is from its mean. Variance - How far a set of numbers are spread. Used for Data set. Hint Words = Risk, spread. Multiplication Rule - A method for finding the probability that both of two events occur. When the probabilities of multiple events are multiplied together to determine the likelihood of all of the events happening. Word...

Assuming that the data are normally distributed, under the simple linear model, the estimated variance has the following sampling distribution: - Chi-squared with n-2 degrees of freedom. The fitted values are defined as? - The regression line with parameters replaced with the estimated regression coefficients. The estimators fo the linear regression model are derived by? - Minimizing the sum of squared differences between the observed and expected values of the response variable. The estim...

Amanda is measuring the temperature. She looks at the thermometer and sees that it is somewhere between 65 and 66 degrees Fahrenheit. She is okay with the temperature in between two integers because she knows temperature is not ________ data, but temperature is _________ data.  a) Nominal, Ordinal  b) Nominal, Discrete  c) Continuous, Discrete  d) Discrete, Continuous Feedback: The correct answer is D. Temperature is not a measure that comes in increments (discrete) but is co...

WGU Statistics Questions and Answers Already Passed The probability of any event is between one and o. What is the equation for this? For any event A, 0 ≤ P(A) ≤ 1. The sum of all possible probabilities is___? One, the equation is :P(S) = 1 What is the complement rule? or the probability that an event does not occur is 1 minus the probability that it does occur. P(not A) = 1 - P(A) In probability, "OR" means either one or the other or both. P(A or B) = P(event A occurs or event B occurs...

Factor Based Models classification, clustering, regression. Implicitly assumed that we have a lot of factors in the final model Why limit number of factors in a model? 2 reasons overfitting: when # of factors is close to or larger than # of data points. Model may fit too closely to random effects simplicity: simple models are usually better Classical variable selection approaches 1. Forward selection 2. Backwards elimination 3. Stepwise regression greedy algorithms Backward elimination...

WGU C207 Questions and Answers 2022/2023 What is the key focus on analysis? To predict trends using quantitative data. What are the four levels of measurement? 1. Nominal 2. Ordinal 3. Interval 4. Ratio Nominal data is categorical. It has no numerical value. It's not a number. Examples: -the types of pizza you sell -meatball -veggie -cheese (these are labels, they can't be added or subtracted) Ordinal data is ranked, but doesn't have a specific value. Examp...

CHAPTER 3: NUMERICAL DESCRIPTIVE TECHNIQUES TRUE/FALSE 1. The mean is affected by extreme values but the median is not. ANS: T NAT: Analytic; Descriptive Statistics 2. The mean is a measure of variability. ANS: F NAT: Analytic; Descriptive Statistics 3. In a histogram, the proportion of the total area which must be to the left of the median is more than 0.50 if the distribution is positively skewed. ANS: F NAT: Analytic; Descriptive Statistics 4. A data sample has a mean of 107, a median...
