3.Which statement is correct?
(1 Point)
The sample average is a point estimator of the unknown population mean
The sample average is used to calculate the unknown population mean
Answer b. is correct if the population variance is small
4.Which statement is correct?
(1 Point)
Non-parametric tests can be conducted with no assumptions on the distribution
It is always better to use non-parametric tests
As answer a. but referred to parametric tests
5.The significance level alpha of a test,
(1 Point)
is equal to the p-value of the test
cannot be larger than 1
must always be smaller than the p-value of the test
6.A confidence interval for an unknown population parameter is,
(1 Point)
the difference between max and min value in the sample
a probability
calculated on sample data
7.In a procedure of hypothesis testing,
(1 Point)
first, we must determine the probability of type II error (significance level)
the significance level is always in the interval 0.9 to 0.99
None of the previous answers
8.Testing the equality of the means of two populations is,
(1 Point)
possible only if the two populations are positively correlated
possible only if the two populations are negatively correlated
