There are two types of incorrect decisions through hypothesis testing. Which of the following describes "type I error"?
rejecting the null hypothesis when it is actually true |
rejecting the alternate hypothesis when it is actually true |
failing to reject the null hypothesis when it is actually false |
failing to reject the alternate hypothesis when it is actually false |
rejecting the null and alternate hypotheses when they are actually true |
Statistical hypothesis tests are used to make a decision about whether the null hypothesis should be accepted or rejected. Since these conclusions are based on sample data, there is a risk of incorrect decision. There are two types of incorrect decisions through hypothesis testing: type I error and type II error. Type I error is defined as rejecting the null hypothesis (H0 ) when it is actually true. On the other hand, Type II error is defined as failing to reject the null hypothesis (H0 ) when it is actually false.

If you can assign a probability to each object in the population to be selected in to a sample, what kind of sampling is used?
Non-probability sampling |
Convenience sampling |
Probability Sampling |
Snowball sampling |
Quota sampling |
Probability sampling methods provide a statistical basis for saying that a sample is representative of the target population. In probability sampling methods, every unit of the target population have a known and non-zero probability of being selected for the sample. We can say that because probability sampling methods use a random mechanism thus eliminating subjectivity in the selection of a sample, these methods are an unbiased way of creating a sample.

What will be the degrees of freedom for two samples whose sample sizes are "m" and "n" and if the population variances are assumed to be equal for testing the difference between two means?
The smaller of m and n |
m+n-2 |
m+n-1 |
m+n |
m+n+1 |
If population variances are assumed to be equal then the degrees of freedom=m+n-2.

Assume that there are two different brands (A and B) producing chocolates. The variance of chocolates are assumed to be different. One chooses 10 chococaltes of brand A and 20 chocolates of brand B and observes that the average weight of brand A sample is 56 gr and brand B is 54 gr. The sample variances for A and B are 1 and 2 gr respectively. What will be the t-statistic and can we conclude that the weights of these brands are different at 0.05 significance level?
t=1.65, weight are same |
t=1.81, weights are same |
t=2.98, weights are different |
t=3.34, weights are same |
t=4.47, weights are different |
so t=(56-54)/?(1/10+2/20)=2/?0.2=4.47. Degrees of freedom is 9 (since the smaller of 10-1 and 20-1 is 9) since the population variances are different. Thus the critical value of t=1.833. Since the calculated t is bigger than critical value we reject the null hypothesis that brand A and B have same weight. Thus we conclude that their weights differ at 0.05 significance level.
