ISDS 361A Exam 2 Study Guide with Questions and Answers Suppose a random sample of 18 uber drivers was taken, and the average age x̄ of these drivers was found to be 27.5 years. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the mean age (µ) of all drivers. Assume that the age of drivers is normally distributed with a population standard deviation (σ) of 2.3 years. The standard error (SE) of x̄ is: ANSWER 0.54 SE= sigma/sqrt (n) n 18 mean 27.5 sigma 2.3 Suppose a random sample of 18 ube...

Marginal Distribution correct answer: The distribution of values of a variable among all individuals described by the table. (Percent of something out of the total) Conditional Distribution correct answer: The distribution of values of a variable among individuals who have a specific value of another variable. (Percent of a specific something out of that specific total) Association correct answer: When specific values of one variable tend to occur in common with specific values of anoth...
