Question 4
A media personality argues that global temperatures are not rising, because every year
an increase is reported such as 0.08 degrees C. The difference from the previous year is
less than the margin of error of about 0.15 degrees C, so that difference should be
ignored. What is a strong counterargument?
1.
Even 0.08 degrees is a lot and thus should be considered.
2.
The margin of error is just extra information and thus can be ignored.
3.
The difference with any previous decade is much greater than the margin of error.
4.
0.15 - 0.08 is 0.07, which is still an increase and thus should be considered.

Question 5
An article reports that blue eyed people earn less than brown eyed people, with these
numbers: average blue-eyed salary $35,000, average brown-eyed salary $37,000, p-
value 0.45. Based on that reported p-value, and using the common definition of
"statistical significance," which is the case?
1.
The results are nowhere near to being statistically significant.
2.
The results are almost but not quite statistically significant.
3.
The results are just barely statistically significant.
4.
The results are strongly statistically significant.
6.
