Textbook Question
Chapter 15, Problem 34CP
Multiple choice Nonparametric statistical methods are used
- a. Whenever the response variable is known to have a
normal distribution . - b. Whenever the assumptions for a parametric method are not perfectly satisfied.
- c. When the data are ranks for the subjects rather than quantitative measurements or when it’s inappropriate to assume normality and the ordinary statistical method is not robust when the normal assumption is violated.
- d. Whenever we want to compare two methods for getting a good tan.

- What are the assumptions for regression analysis? Select all that apply. The sample is a random sample. There can be no outliers. For any specific value of the independent variable x, the value of the dependent variable y must be normally distributed about the regression line. For any specific value of the dependent variable y, the value of the independent variable x must be normally distributed about the regression line. O The standard deviation of each of the independent variables must be the same for each value of the dependent variable. O The standard deviation of each of the dependent variables must be the same for each value of the independent variable.arrow_forward18.

- The scores on the Accuplacer test and High School GPAs are normally distributed.The Accuplacer test had a mean of 30 and a standard deviation of 10.High School GPAs had a mean of 2.5 and a standard deviation of 0.1.What high school GPA do you need to equal a score of 22 on the Accuplacer test?Give answer to two decimal places. For data that is not normally distributed we can't use z-scores. However, there is an equation that works on any distribution. It's called Chebyshev's formula. The formula is where P=1- 1/k2 p is the minimum percentage of scores that fall within kk standard deviations on both sides of the mean. Use this formula to answer the following questions.a) If you have scores and you don't know if they are normally distributed, find the minimum percentage of scores that fall within 3.3 standard deviations on both sides of the mean? b) If you have scores that are normally distributed, find the percentage of scores that fall within 3.3 standard deviations on both sides…arrow_forwardWhich of the following values results from the use of a statistical test? 1.
