A Type I error is
The 95% z critical value (two-tailed) is
Quadrupling the sample size, the margin of error is
A chi-squared test of independence on a \(3\times4\) table has d.f.

How to use these University statistical inference multiple choice questions
First, read each question carefully before you look at the four answers. Then work the answer out on paper, so that you do not simply guess. After that, read the explanation, even when you are right. If you score less than 7 out of 10, go back to the statistical inference lesson.
Finally, practise more with the statistical inference worksheet and the quiz. Moreover, all the pages of this chapter work together, so you can move between them at any time. For example, many pupils read the lesson on Monday, practise on Wednesday and test themselves on Friday.
