NEW QUESTION # 97
Given a normal distribution with a mean of 40 and a standard deviation of 6, what is the range that contains approximately 95% of the data?
Answer: C
Explanation:
For a normal distribution, the empirical rule states that approximately 95% of the data fall within two standard deviations of the mean. The mean is 40, and the standard deviation is 6. Two standard deviations equal 2 × 6
= 12. To construct the 95% interval, subtract and add 12 from the mean: 40 # 12 = 28 and 40 + 12 = 52.
Therefore, the range containing approximately 95% of the data is 28 to 52. Option D, 34 to 46, represents one standard deviation from the mean and corresponds to about 68% of the data. Option B, 22 to 58, represents three standard deviations from the mean and corresponds to approximately 99.7% of the data. Option C is not based on the stated standard deviation. The correct interval must be symmetric around the mean and extend exactly two standard deviations in each direction.

NEW QUESTION # 98
A dataset: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20. Mean = ?
Answer: D
Explanation:
The mean is the arithmetic average of a data set. To compute it, add all values and divide by the number of observations. For the dataset 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20, the sum is 4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20 = 60. There are 5 values, so the mean is 60 ÷ 5 = 12. The mean represents the balance point of the data. This dataset is evenly spaced around 12: 4 and 20 are equally distant from 12, and 8 and 16 are equally distant from 12. That symmetry supports the computed result. Option A, 10, is too low because it does not account for the higher values 16 and 20. Option C, 14, is too high, and option D is one of the data values but not the average. The correct answer is 12. Study Guide references/topics: mean, arithmetic average, measures of center, quantitative data.
NEW QUESTION # 99
In a game, a coin is tossed, and a spinner with 8 equal spaces numbered 1 through 8 is spun.
What is the probability of getting heads on the coin and a number less than 3 on the spinner?
Answer: B
Explanation:
This experiment has two independent stages: tossing a coin and spinning a numbered spinner. The probability of getting heads on a fair coin is 1/2. The spinner has 8 equally likely outcomes numbered 1 through 8. A number less than 3 means either 1 or 2, so there are 2 favorable spinner outcomes out of 8 total outcomes.
Thus, P(number less than 3) = 2/8 = 1/4. Since the coin result does not affect the spinner result, the events are independent. For independent events connected by "and," multiply the probabilities: 1/2 × 1/4 = 1/8.
Equivalently, the combined sample space has 2 coin outcomes times 8 spinner outcomes, or 16 total equally likely outcomes. The favorable outcomes are heads with 1 and heads with 2, giving 2/16 = 1/8. References

NEW QUESTION # 100
In a class of 40 students, the following data were collected on their favorite sport:
* Soccer: 10 students
* Basketball: 15 students
* Tennis: 5 students
* Swimming: 10 students
What is the relative frequency of students whose favorite sport is not basketball?
Answer: A
Explanation:
Relative frequency is the proportion of observations in a category compared with the total number of observations. The class has 40 students. Basketball accounts for 15 students, so the number of students whose favorite sport is not basketball is 40 # 15 = 25. The relative frequency is therefore 25/40. Dividing gives
0.625. This means 62.5% of the class selected a sport other than basketball. The same result can be found by adding the non-basketball categories directly: soccer 10, tennis 5, and swimming 10, giving 10 + 5 + 10 = 25 students. Option A, 0.25, corresponds to 10 out of 40 and would represent soccer or swimming alone. Option B, 0.50, corresponds to 20 out of 40. Option D, 0.75, would imply 30 students, which is too high.

NEW QUESTION # 101
Sample mean = 40, SD = 8, n = 16. Standard error = ?
Answer: D
Explanation:
The standard error of the sample mean is calculated as SE = s/#n, where s is the sample standard deviation and n is the sample size. Here, the standard deviation is 8 and the sample size is 16. The square root of 16 is 4, so SE = 8/4 = 2. The sample mean of 40 is not used directly in the standard error formula; it identifies the center of the sample, not the variability of the sample mean across repeated samples. Option B, 8, is the standard deviation, not the standard error. Option D, 4, is the square root of the sample size. Option C, 0.5, would result from an incorrect calculation. Standard error decreases as sample size increases because larger samples provide more precise estimates. Study Guide references/topics: standard error, standard deviation, sample size, sampling distribution.
