CHAPTER 1 LEARNING OBJECTIVES 2 2 2
CLO1-1: Use the chance model to determine whether an observed statistic is unlikely to occur.
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
CLO1-2: Calculate and interpret a p-
2 2 2 2 2
value, and state the strength of evidence it provides againstthe null hypothesis.
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
CLO1-

2 2 2 2 2 2
CLO1-
4: Describe how the distance of the observed statistic from the parameter value specifiedby the nu

2 2 2 2 2 2 2
sided tests affect the strength of evidence against the null hypothesis.
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
CLO1-5: Describe how to carry out a theory-based, one-proportion z-test.
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
Section 1.1: Introduction to Chance Models 2 2 2 2 2
LO1.1-1: Recognize the difference between parameters and statistics.
2 2 2 2 2 2 2
LO1.1-2: Describe how to use coin tossing to simulate outcomes from a chance model of the ran-
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
dom choice between two events.
2 2 2 2 2
LO1.1-3: Use the One Proportion applet to carry out the coin tossing simulation.

Questions 1 through 4:

Do red uniform wearers tend to win more often than those wearing blue uniforms in Taekwondo
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
matches where competitors are randomly assigned to wear either a red or blue uniform? In a sam
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
ple of 80 Taekwondo matches, there were 45 matches where thered uniform wearer won.
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
1. What is the parameter of interest for this study?
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
A. The long-run proportion of Taekwondo matches in which the red uniform wearerwins
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
B. The proportion of matches in which the red uniform wearer wins in a sample of 80Taekw

C. Whether the red uniform wearer wins a match 2 2 2 2 2 2 2

ficant?
A. Yes, since 45 is larger than 40. 2 2 2 2 2 2
B. Yes, since the height of the dotplot above 45 is smaller than the height of thedotplot
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2

C. No, since 45 is a fairly typical outcome if the color of the winner‘s uniform wasdeterm

ined by chance alone. 2 2 2
