Which of the following statements about simulation output is TRUE? Simulating non-terminating processes requires a single long simulation run. The steady state of a simulation output depends on the random seed used to run the simulation. The most important type of performance measure in terminating processes is always the steady-state average. Terminating processes cannot reach into the steady state. QUESTION 22 Which of the following statements is correct? A confidence interval is a range of values between which the value of the population parameter is believed to be. None of these statements is correct. A confidence interval is an estimate of the range for a sample statistic. A confidence interval describes a range of values that is likely not to include the actual population parameter

True or False 1. A confidence interval is an example of a point estimate 2. You are 100% confident that a confidence interval for the true population mean includes the sample mean. 3. All else held equal, decreasing variability in a population will cause the length of the confidence interval generated to increase 4. The null hypothesis is the hypothesis that is tested directly 5. Depending on the statement of the original question, the equal sign may be in the null hypothesis or in the alternative hypothesis 6. If you reject the null hypothesis, you could have made a Type 1 correct decision 7. If your sample result match to the hypothesized value then you should accept the null hypothesis.

Which of the following statements is not true about confidence intervals? Select one: a. A 95% confidence interval procedure has a higher probability of producing intervals that will include the population parameter than a 90% confidence interval procedure. b. An approximate formula for a 95% confidence interval is the sample estimate ± margin of error. c. A confidence interval between 25% and 45% means that the population proportion lies between 25% and 45%. d. A confidence interval is an interval of values computed from sample data that is likely to include the true population value. Which of the following best represents the correct meaning of the p-value of a test statistic? Select one: a. The probability of your test statistic being significant b. The difference between the observed sample proportion and the true population proportion c. The probability of obtaining the calculated test statistic, or one more extreme, under the assumption that the null hypothesis is true d. The probability of obtaining the exact value of the calculated test statistic, under the assumption that the statistic is significant According to the Central Limit Theorem, there are two conditions that, when either one is met, make the sampling distribution of the mean approximately normal. What are those two conditions? (Hint: One has to do with the original parent population of values, and the other has to do with the samples that are selected at random from that parent population.)

54. Which of the following statements is TRUE regarding the t distribution? a. As n increases, t(k) gets closer to N(0, 1) because the difference between s and σ tends to get larger. b. As n decreases, t(k) gets closer to N(0, 1) because the difference between s and σ tends to get smaller. c. As n decreases, t(k) gets closer to N(0, 1) because the difference between s and σ tends to get larger. d. As n increases, t(k) gets closer to N(0, 1) because the difference between s and σ tends to get smaller. 55. A study is conducted to determine if one can predict the price of a stock based on the price-to-earnings ratio. The explanatory variable in this study is: a. the price of the stock. b. the price-to-earnings ratio. c. the researcher. d. either the NASDAQ or the Dow Jones Industrial Average. 56. Which of the following is TRUE about the Poisson distribution? a. There must be a fixed number of trials. b. The number of successes can be countably infinite. c. It is always symmetric. d. The mean and the standard deviation are equal. 57. The nicotine content in cigarettes of a certain brand is Normally distributed, with mean (in milligrams) μ and standard deviation σ = 0.1. The brand advertises that the mean nicotine content of its cigarettes is 1.5, but you are suspicious and plan to investigate the advertised claim by testing the following hypotheses at the 5% significance level: Ho: μ = 1.5, Ha: μ > 1.5 You will do so by measuring the nicotine content of 100 randomly selected cigarettes of this brand and computing the mean nicotine content x̄ of your measurements. The critical value of x̄ is (rounded to 3 decimal places): a. 1.645. b. 1.696. c. 1.520. d. 1.516. 58. There are three children in a room, ages 3, 4, and 5. If a 4-year-old child enters the room, the: a. mean age and variance will stay the same. b. mean age and variance will increase. c. mean will stay the same but the variance will increase. d. mean age will stay the same but the variance will decrease. 59. All of the following could reasonably generate a Poisson distribution EXCEPT: a. X = the number of vehicles arriving at a tollbooth on I-90 between 5:00 P.M. and 5:30 P.M. on Fridays. b. X = the number of bacteria found in a cubic yard of soil. c. X = the number of flaws in 1000 yards of milled carpeting. d. X = the number of children watching a television program.
