41. Which of the following sequences of die rolls is the least likely to occur? A. 1 – 1 – 1 – 1 – 1 B. 2 – 3 – 4 – 5 – 6 C. 1 – 5 – 2 – 1 – 3 D. All of the above sequences have the same probability. Ans: D; LO: P.3-4; Difficulty: Hard; Type: MC 42. You plan to roll the die n times. With each roll, you record whether the die landed on an odd number or an even number. For which of the following values of n would you have the lowes t probability of observing all even number rolls? A. n = 2 B. n = 5 C. n = 20 D. n = 100 Ans: D; LO: P.3-4; Difficulty: Hard; Type: MC 43. The lottery game Powerball advertises that the probability of winning a prize is 0.04. Thisme ans that if 100 people play Powerball, then 4 of them will win a prize. A. True B. False Ans: B; LO: P.3-1; Difficulty: Medium; Type: TF 44. The lottery game Powerball advertises that the probability of winning a prize is 0.04. This me ans that, in the long run, if thousands of people play Powerball, then about 4% of themwill win a prize. A. True B. False Ans: A; LO: P.3-1; Difficulty: Medium; Type: TF Questions 45 and 46: A classmate claims that he can smell the difference between a Starbucks cup of coffee and a Dunkin‘ Donuts cup of coffee. You decide to test this claim by blindfolding him and pres enting him with two cups of coffee – one from Starbucks and one from Dunkin‘ Donuts. 45. Your classmate guesses the correct brand of coffee both times in two trials. Does thisco nvince you that your classmate‘s claim is true? A. Yes, since the classmate was correct in 100% of the trials. B. Yes, since if the classmate was just guessing, it is very unlikely to guess correctlytwic e in a row. C. No, since if the classmate was just guessing, there is a 50% chance of guessingcorr ectly twice in a row. D. No, since if the classmate was just guessing, there is a 25% chance of guessingcorr ectly twice in a row. Ans: D; LO: P.3-5; Difficulty: Medium; Type: MC

CHAPTER 1 LEARNING OBJECTIVES
CLO1-1: Use the chance model to determine whether an observed statistic is unlikely to occur.
CLO1-2: Calculate and interpret a p-value, and state the strength of evidence it provides against
the null hypothesis.
CLO1-
3: Calculate a standardized statistic for a single proportion and evaluate the strength of
evidence it provides against a null hypothesis.
CLO1-
4: Describe how the distance of the observed statistic from the parameter value specified by
the null hypothesis, sample size, and one- vs. two-sided tests affect the strength of evidence
against the null hypothesis.
CLO1-5: Describe how to carry out a theory-based, one-proportion z-test.


Section 1.1: Introduction to Chance Models
LO1.1-1: Recognize the difference between parameters and statistics.
LO1.1-2: Describe how to use coin tossing to simulate outcomes from a chance model of the random
choice between two events.
LO1.1-3: Use the One Proportion applet to carry out the coin tossing simulation.
LO1.1-
4: Identify whether or not study results are statistically significant and whether or not the chance
model is a plausible explanation for the data.
LO1.1-
5: Implement the 3S strategy: find a statistic, simulate results from a chance model, and
comment on strength of evidence against observed study results happening by chance
alone.
LO1.1-

6: Differentiate between saying the chance model is plausible and the chance model is the
