A race car driver tested his car for time from 0 to 60 mph, and in 20 tests obtained an average of 48.5 seconds with a standard deviation of 1.47 seconds. A 95 confidence interval for the 0 to 60 time is 4.52 seconds to 5.18 seconds.
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Q. 2

In general, the binomial probability P(X <= x) is approximated by the area under the normal curve to the left of x + - .5.
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Q. 3

Statisticians have shown that the mathematical process that derived the Student t distribution is robust, which means that if the sampled population is nonnormal, the t-test of the population mean is still valid, provided that the population is not extremely nonnormal.
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Q. 4

In general, the binomial probability P(X = x) is approximated by the area under a normal curve between x  .5 and x + .5.
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Q. 5

In order to determine the p-value associated with hypothesis testing about the population mean , it is necessary to know the value of the test statistic.
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Q. 6

The normal approximation to the binomial distribution works best when the number of trials is large, and when the binomial distribution is symmetrical (like the normal).
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Q. 7

A 90 confidence interval estimate for the population mean constructed with a small sample will have a margin of error that is approximately 90 of the population size n.
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false
