v Part
B: True or False (17-30)
_____17. The
random sample is the most important, because statistical theory applies to it
alone.
_____18. In a frequency
distribution, the class mark is the number of observations that fall within
that class.
_____19. Original
class interval frequencies can be obtained by multiplying the respective
relative frequencies by the total number of observations.
_____20. The
sum of the class frequencies is equal to the number of observations made.
_____21. A
relative frequency distribution describes the proportion of data values that
fall within each category.
_____22. There
would be no need for statistical theory if census, rather than a sample was
always used to obtain information about populations.
_____23. The
arithmetic mean is the sum of the data values divided by the number of
observations.
_____24.
is
_____25. The
median always exists in a set of numerical data.
_____26.
means that A and B
are mutually exclusive events.
_____27. Mutually
exclusive events imply that if one event occurs, the other cannot occur. An
event (e.g.,
) and its complement are always mutually exclusive.
_____28.
_____29. Events
are independent when the occurrence of one event has no effect on the probability
that another will occur.
_____30. The
P(x) is always 0 ≤ P(x) ≤ 1.
