STATISTICS FINAL EXAM QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS
Given the following set of numbers: 3.3, -2.3, -16, 25. What are the square roots of the whole number?
A. +/- 2.3
B. +/- 3.3
C. +/- 4
D. +/- 5 - CORRECT ANSWER -D. +/- 5
Composite Number - CORRECT ANSWER -A number with more factors that just one and itself.
Equivalent Fractions - CORRECT ANSWER -Different fractions that represent the same value.
X-Axis - CORRECT ANSWER -The horizontal line that passes through the origin on a coordinate plane.
Qualitative Data - CORRECT ANSWER -Non-numeric information based on some quality or characteristic.
No Correlation - CORRECT ANSWER -There is no apparent overall trend between the two variables. If the
correlation coefficient is 0, this only rules out a linear trend. There could be a non-linear or curvilinear
trend.
Extrapolate - CORRECT ANSWER -Using information from a data set to make predictions about data
outside of the original set.
, Event - CORRECT ANSWER -An outcome, or set of outcomes, whose chance of occurrence can be
represented with a probability.
Given the following set of numbers: 10, 2.5, -4, -4.5, 5. What is the sum when adding together only the
whole numbers?
A. 5.5
B. 11
C. 12.5
D. 15 - CORRECT ANSWER -D. 15
Operation - CORRECT ANSWER -In Mathematics, an operation is a procedure which generates a new
value from one or more operands, or Mathematical values.
Conditional Proportion - CORRECT ANSWER -A proportion where one part of the proportion is a variable,
or unknown quantity.
Coefficients - CORRECT ANSWER -A number by which a number is multiplied. This number is written in
front of the variable(s).
Mean - CORRECT ANSWER -Average, calculated by adding a series of elements in a data set together and
dividing by the total number in the series.
Outlier - CORRECT ANSWER -An observation point that is statistically distant from the other observations
in the dataset.
Regression Line - CORRECT ANSWER -The line of best fit to show the relationship between variables, the
one that minimizes distance from each data point to the line.
