    Review Questions

    1] define the following:


    1. Biostatistics: statistical process and methods applied to collect,
    organize, present and analyze bio-data
    2. Statistical thinking: involves critical thinking and the ability to
    make sense of results. Statistical thinking demands so much more
    than the ability to execute complicated calculations
    3. Population: The complete collection of all measurements or data
    that are being considered. Typically, a population is the complete
    collection of data that we would like to make inferences about
    4. Sample: A subcollection of members selected from a population
    5. Parameter and Statistics: Parameter is a numerical measurement
    describing some characteristic of a population, Statistic
    6. a numerical measurement describing some characteristic of a
    sample
    7. Simple event: is an outcome or an event that cannot be further
    broken down into simpler components
    8. Compound event: is any event combining two or more simple
    events.

    2] Data can be divided into Quantitative and Categorical (or qualitative


    or attribute) data
    3] Quantitative data divided into Discrete and Continuous
    4] Types of sampling are Simple Random Sample
    and Systematic Sampling and Stratified Sampling and Cluster Sampling

    5] Give example for:


    1. categorical variable: Gender (male/female)
    2. Discrete variable: The number of tosses of a coin before getting
    tails
    3. Continuous variable: The lengths of distances from 0 cm to 12
    cm
    4. Simple event: one female in a single birth / Rolling a die and
    getting a 4
    5. Compound event: Rolling a die and getting an even number (2, 4,
    or 6)
    6. disjoint events: The events of "rolling a 2" and "rolling a 5" in a
    single roll of die
    7. Independent events: Flipping a coin and getting heads, and
    rolling a die and getting a 4 are independent events.

    6] From the following data 3, 5, 3, 6, 1, 3 find:


    1. Mean =3.5 2. Median =3 3. Mode =3
    4. Range= 5 5. Variance= 2.58 6. Standard deviation=1.61
    7] Which of the following measures is resistant:
    Mean, median, variance
    8] If the variance = 9 the standard deviation = 3

    9] If the standard deviation = 9 the variance = 81


    10] If the range = 30 and number of classes = 6 then the class width = 5
    11] Number of classes in frequency distribution should not exceed 20
    12] Number of classes in frequency distribution should not be less than
    5
    13] Given the following frequency distribution:
    Class 2–5 6–9 10 – 13 14 – 17 18 - 21
    f 5 8 9 6 3
    1. The midpoint of the class (10 – 13) is 11.5
    2. The class width of the class (14 – 17) is 4
    3. The relative frequency of the class (6 – 9) is 0.258
    4. The cumulative frequency of the class (10 – 13) is 22
    14] In histogram the horizontal axis represent midpoints (True or

    false) 15] If P(A) = 0.4 , P(𝐴̅ ) = 0.6

    16] P(A) + P(𝐴̅ ) = 1 (True or false)


    17] -1 ≤ P(A) ≤ 1 (True or false)
    18] If P(A) = 0.3 , P(B) = 0.4 find P(A or B) if A and B are disjoint 0.7
    19] If P(A) = 0.3 , P(B) = 0.4 find P(A or B) if A and B are
    independent 0.58

    20] 20] Given the following probability matrix:


    Infected Not infected
    Male 10 30
    Female 20 40

    Find:
    1. P(male) =0.4
    2. P(infected) = 0.3
    3. P(not infected female) = 0.4
    4. P(male\infected) = 0.33
