Sample Questions

1multiple correct

For the data set 3, 7, 9, 12, 15, which of the following are correct?

Show answer

Median = 9, Mean = 9.2, Range = 12

Median (middle value) = 9. Mean = (3+7+9+12+15)/5 = 46/5 = 9.2. Range = 15-3 = 12. There is no mode as all values appear once.

2multiple choice

For the data 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, find the first quartile (Q1)

Show answer

6

For n=5, Q1 position = (5+1)/4 = 1.5, which means Q1 is between 1st and 2nd values. Q1 = (4+6)/2 = 5. Wait, let me recalculate: Q1 position = 1.5th position = 1st value + 0.5(2nd-1st) = 4 + 0.5(6-4) = 6

3multiple correct

Which of the following statements about standard deviation are correct?

Show answer

It is always non-negative, It measures spread of data, It is the square root of variance

Standard deviation is always ≥ 0, measures how spread out data is from the mean, and equals √variance. It cannot be negative as it's derived from squared deviations.

4multiple choice

Calculate the variance for the data: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10

Show answer

8

Mean = (2+4+6+8+10)/5 = 6. Variance = [(2-6)² + (4-6)² + (6-6)² + (8-6)² + (10-6)²]/5 = [16+4+0+4+16]/5 = 40/5 = 8
