Which of the following statements is false?
a. The width of a confidence interval estimate of the population mean narrows when the sample size increases.
b. The width of a confidence interval estimate of the population mean narrows when the value of the sample mean increases.
c. The width of a confidence interval estimate of the population mean widens when the confidence level increases.
d. Both The width of a confidence interval estimate of the population mean narrows when the sample size increases and The width of a confidence interval estimate of the population mean widens when the confidence level increases..
e. None of these.
Q. 2If a tie occurs in a set of ranked data, the data that form the tie are removed from the set.
Indicate whether the statement is true or false
Q. 3The hypergeometric random variable is the number of successes achieved when a random sample of size n is drawn with replacement from a population of size N within which M units have the characteristic that denotes success.
Indicate whether the statement is true or false
Q. 4For a given sample size and given confidence coefficient, the closer the population proportion p to 1.0, the greater the margin of error will be.
Indicate whether the statement is true or false
Q. 5One of the advantages that the nonparametric tests have is the necessity for less restrictive assumptions.
Indicate whether the statement is true or false
Q. 6The hypergeometric probability distribution formula calculates the probability of x successes when a random sample of size n is drawn without replacement from a population of size N within which M units have the characteristic that denotes success, and N - M units have the characteristic that denotes failure.
Indicate whether the statement is true or false
Q. 7One way to reduce the margin of error in a confidence interval is to decrease the confidence coefficient.
Indicate whether the statement is true or false
Q. 8The line of best fit, provided one exists, will best predict the value of the dependent, or output, variable from a value of the independent, or input, variable.
Indicate whether the statement is true or false
