Which of the following is used to investigate the relationship between two variables?
Scatter plot |
Lina chart |
Bar chart |
Histogram |
Pie chart |
A scatter plot is used to investigate the relationship between two variables. They are also very helpful indicating the minimum, maximum or outliers of the variables. One of the reasons that the scatter plots may be drawn is that the scatter plot gives a good indication of the correlation between two variables.

According to classical probability, when rolling a fair dice, what is the probability of obtaining the number 5?
5/6 |
4/6 |
3/6 |
2/6 |
1/6 |
In the classical probability approach to assign a probability to an event, the assumption is that all the outcomes have the same chance of happening. Pick up a six-sided fair die, there are six numbers on each face of the die as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Classical probability says that each side of the die has the same chance to come face up if this die is thrown. Since there are 6 possible outcomes of throwing a six-sided fair die probability of obtaining any number represented on the faces of this six-sided fair die is 1/6. We can formularize this by following equation:
Probabilityof an Event = Thenumber of timestheevent can happen
/Total number of possibleoutcomes

Which is NOT TRUE about a random experiment?
It is any process that leads to two or more possible outcomes |
We are able to know which outcome will occur |
We are able to list or describe all of the possible outcomes |
The set of all possible outcomes is important to understand |
Its set of all possible outcomes is called the sample space |
A random experiment is any process that leads to two or more possible outcomes, without knowing exactly which outcome will occurIn a random experiment, Although we do not know which outcome will occur, we are able to list or describe all of the possible outcomes. The set of all possible outcomes is important to understand the random experiment. Therefore, it is called a sample space, which is restated below as a definition.

For X which is a continuous random variable that is uniformly distributed and takes values between 3 and 9, the minimum value of the random variable X is 3 (it’s the value of a) and the maximum value is 9 (it’s the value of b). Then X~U (a=3, b=9) and the probability density function of the continuous random variable X is defined as, f (x) = 1/(b - a) = 1/(9 - 3)= 1/6 for 3?x?9. The mean is equal to (9 + 3)/2 = 6. The answer is E.

What type of variable are your exam grades?
interval-scale variable |
nominal categorical variable |
ordinal categorical variable |
ratio-scale variable |
continous interval variable |
Categorical variables and data can be either nominal or ordinal.
The question about climate change, with possible responses “natural”, “manmade” or “don’t know/can’t answer” is a nominal categorical variable, as is the variable “country” - there is no ordering in the categories
of these variables. By contrast, exam grade is an ordinal categorical variable, since its categories are ordered: A is better than a B, B is better than a C, and so on.

In how many different ways can the letters in U-S-U-A-L-L-Y be arranged?

20 |
25 |
Note that there are five different letters, namely U, S, A, L, Y and that the letters U and L are used twice. If all the seven letters in the given word were different, the total number of arrangements would be 7!. Since all the arrangements of the two letters U1 and U2 , and all the arrangements of the two letters L1 and L2 should be counted only once, it follows that the answer is 7!/ 2!2! =15. The correct answer is C.

There are 6 red and 4 blue balls in a box. One randomly chooses 4 balls from the box without replacing it. What is the probability of choosing at most 1 red ball out of these 4 balls?
0.12 |
0.18 |
0.24 |
0.36 |
0.48 |
We have to compute zero red balls and 1 red ball.
P(x=0)=C(4,0)*0.60*0.44=0.44
P(x=1)=C(4,1)*0.61*0.43=2.4*0.43
P(x=0)+P(x=1)=2.4*0.43+0.44=0.43(2.4+0.4)=2.8*0.43=0.1792=0.18

stem-and-leaf |
Simple bar chart |

What does a variable's taking on infinite number of possible outcomes in a given interval show?
that it is a continuous random variable |
that it is a discrete random variable |
that it typically comprises of a counting concept |
that it cannot be determined from the area under probability density function |
that it cannot keep uncountable measures |
A major difference between continuous and discrete random variables is the former takes on uncountable and infinite number of possible outcomes in a given interval. Hence the range of continuous random variable X comprises all real numbers in an interval. In addition to the above given illustrations, water consumption amount in a household, weights of people in a population, the speed of wind in a open certain area, waiting time in a supermarket, checkout lanes or load on a bridge are the few examples for continuous random variable for real world applications. From these examples it’s clear that random variable X can take unaccountably infinite values. To describe such physical structures through continuous random variables density functions are utilized. Therefore, in contrast to discrete random variables, probabilities in continuous random variables can be determined from the area under probability density function (pdf) which is represented by f (x).

Ratio scale |
Interval scale |
Ordinal scale |
Nominal scale |
Qualitative scale |
Ratio scales of measurement, in addition to having all properties of the interval scale, have a natural or zero-valued base value that cannot be changed. For example, an individual’s age, weight, height.

An investor needs to decide on that the power of Turkish Lira to make an investment in Turkey and wants to analyze the tendency of Turkish Lira versus a foreign currency. Which type of display is best for the investor?
A simple line chart |
Pie chart |
Histogram |
Stem-And-Leaf Display |
Scatter Plot |
In economics, the tendency of a foreign currency versus Turkish Lira may also be analyzed by a simple line chart, which may show a long term increase in the value of Turkish Lira against the foreign currency of interest. Therefore, an investor may decide that the power of Turkish Lira is increasing and it is high time to make an investment in Turkey.

There are 36 cards in a box with three different colors-6 yellow, 12 blue, 18 red. What is the probability of obtaining two yellow cards when randomly drawing two cards?
1/42= 0.02381
|
5/216 = 0.02315
|
1/35 = 0.02857
|
4/35 = 0.11429
|
9/35 = 0.25714
|
This is how we formulate the probability: P(A1? A2 ) = P(A2|A1 )P(A1 ) = P(A1 )P(A2|A1 )
This is how we calculate the probability of drawing two yellow cards: 6/36.5/35=1/42= 0.02381

Which one below is NOT an example of a continuous random variable?
The speed of a plane |
The number of students who are present in the class |
Rainfall amount in a given day |
Travel duration from Ankara to Eskisehir on Sundays |
Waiting time at the university cafeteria lane during the lunch hour |
A discrete random variable typically comprises of a counting concept. On the other hand, continuous random variables represent entire infinite values in an interval. For that reason, continuous random variables are commonly measured instead of counted. The speed of a plane, waiting time of customers at a bank’s call center, rainfall amount in a given day and inter arrival time between two customers which arrive to the post office are commonly cited examples for continuous random variables.
