_____ Part Eleven. Can the weight of a person be predicted based on time dedicated to exercise daily, their age and the amount of milk he/she consumes daily?

Explanation / Answer

Part one:

Here we need to find the association between two categorical variables so chi square test should be used.

Correct option is: K. Chi-square test

Part two:

Here we need to make inference about the population mean so single sample t test ot z test should be used.

Correct option is C. 1-sample mean t-test

Pat three:

Here we need to compare population means of two independent samples so independent sample test will be used.

Correct option : E. 2-sample comparison of means

Part four:

Here we have paired observations So dependent sample test shoudl be used.

Correct option: D. Matched pairs

Part five:

Interquartile range is the difference of third quartile and first quartile.

Correct option: B. Five-number summary

Part six:

G. Two-way ANOVA

Part seven:

F. One-way ANOVA

Part eight:

J. 1-sample proportion test

Part nine:

H. Simple linear regression

Part ten:

A. Mean

Part eleven:

I. Multiple regression
