#9
What does 'correlation coefficient' measure?
Strength and direction of the linear relationship between two variables
Difference between two variables

Frequency of occurrence of values
#10
What does the 'P-value' represent in hypothesis testing?
Probability of rejecting a true null hypothesis
Probability of accepting an alternative hypothesis
Level of significance
Probability of observing a sample statistic as extreme as the one computed
#11
What is the formula for calculating covariance between two variables?
Product of differences between corresponding values and their means
Sum of differences between corresponding values and their means

Sum of squares of differences between corresponding values
#12
Which of the following is a measure of skewness?
Variance
Kurtosis
Standard deviation

#13
What is the formula for calculating the coefficient of variation?
Standard deviation divided by the mean, multiplied by 100
Mean divided by the standard deviation, multiplied by 100
Variance divided by the mean
Mean multiplied by the standard deviation
#14
What is the central limit theorem?
States that the larger the sample size, the closer the sample mean approaches the population mean
States that the larger the sample size, the smaller the sample standard deviation becomes
States that the sum of independent and identically distributed random variables tends toward a normal distribution
States that the distribution of sample means will always be positively skewed
