35. The value of a statistic does not vary from sample to sample.

36. The value of a parameter does not vary from sample to sample.

37. We cannot possibly determine any characteristics of the sampling distribution of a statistic without repeatedly sampling from the population.

38. The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean depends on the value of μ.

39. All else being equal, the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean will be smaller for n = 10 than for n = 40.

40. The sampling distribution of the sample mean is approximately normal for large sample sizes, and is sometimes approximately normal for small sample sizes.

41. If the sampling distribution of the sample mean is approximately normal, then the population from which the samples were drawn must have been normally distributed.

42. If we quadruple the sample size, the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean would decrease by a factor of 2.

43. The sampling distribution of μ is always approximately normal for n > 30.

44. Statistics have sampling distributions

46. If the sample sizes are similar, the pooled-variance t procedure will still work relatively well, even if the population variances are not quite the same.

47. When applying the paired difference procedure, it is assumed that the differences between pairs of observations constitute a simple random sample from the population of differences.

48. The pooled-variance t procedure requires that the two populations be normally distributed, however because the Welch procedure is only an approximate procedure, it does not require this assumption.

49. The pooled sample variance used in a pooled-variance t procedure is a weighted average of the sample variances, and tends to be closer to the sample variance with the higher number of observations.

50. The pooled-variance t procedure is most appropriate when the observations between the two groups are dependent.

51. If the two populations are not normally distributed, then the inference procedures for the difference between two means can still be valid, provided the sample sizes are large.

52. The paired difference procedure is less susceptible to the populations being non-normal, since taking the difference between two non-normal populations will result in a normal distribution.

53. One problem with taking observations on the same experimental unit, as in a paired difference test, is that it can increase the variability in the experiment.

54. The sampling distribution X₁ - X₂ of is approximately normal, provided the independent sampling distributions of X₁ - X₂ are themselves approximately normal.

55. The results obtained from the pooled-variance t procedure versus the Welch procedure, when applied to the same data set, will always be significantly different.

56. The sum of the observed values in each of the cells can be greater than n, the total number of observations.

57. To determine the expected frequency for each cell, we multiply the total number of observations by the probability of an observation being in that particular cell.

58. If the null hypothesis is , then large differences between the observed and expected values may exist.

59. In a goodness-of-fit test, the null hypothesis is that all of the hypothesized proportions are the same, against the alternate hypothesis that they are all different.

60. In a one-way table, each observed value can fall into only one of the given classifications.

61. For goodness-of-fit tests, if the chi-square test statistic is greater than 1 then there is significant evidence against the null hypothesis.

62. The sum of the hypothesized probabilities must be equal to 1.

63. If the null hypothesis is , the chi-square test statistic will follow a chi-square distribution with k degrees of freedom, where k is the number of categories.

64. One of the following random variables has a binomial distribution (or has a distribution that would be closely approximated by the binomial)

69. If P(A) = 0.7 and P(B) = 0.6, then A and B cannot be mutually exclusive.

II. There are 82,290 possible samples of size 4 that could be drawn from this group of   40 dogs.

III. Every sample of size 4 has the same chance of being selected.

71. If the sample size is n = 2, the mean and median will be equal.

72. In experiments, the main purpose of randomly assigning experimental units to the treatments is to reduce or eliminate system of the experiment.

73. White Sucker is a species of fish commonly found in the Athabasca River in northern Alberta, and typically grow to an average length of 30 cm.

78. Suppose a university wishes to estimate the average weight of their undergraduate male students. A random sample of 200 undergraduate male students at this university are sampled.
