Sol:
1. A researcher takes a sample of 120 employees of a company, the average age of company’s employees is
(a) a statistic.
(b) a parameter.
(c) the median.
(d) a population.
ANSWER :(B)
Explanation:
the average of company's employees is Population parameter.
(b) a parameter.
2. The level of measurement of Student’s grades, A,B, or C in a test is
(a) Nominal
(b) Ratio
(c) Interval
(d) Ordinal
Course grades (A, B, C, D) are indicators of the quality of a student's performance and are ordered, so this is an example of an ordinal level of measurement
ANSWER D --ORDINAL
3. The difference between the largest and the smallest data values is called
(a) Variance
(b) Class boundary
(c) Range
(d) None of the above answers is correct
Range=highest-lowest
Answerc
4. A die with 6 faces is rolled. What is the probability that the number is greater than 4?
(a) 1/6
(b) 2/6
(c) 3/6
(d) 4/6
>4 is
5,6
Total probability=favourables cases/total cases=2/6
