1. (4 points) For the following claims, determine if they are true/false (write T or F in the boxes).
(a) The size of a test is r[rejecting the null hypothesis].
(b) The power of a test is 1 - r[Type-2 error].
(c) Let X Bernoulli(p). Then 1 - X also has a Bernoulli distribution.
(d) If the correlation between X and Y is zero, then they are independent.
2. (4 points) Assume X Ⅵ (2, 5).
(a) Find the expectation of (X - 1)/2.
(b) Find the standard deviation of 2(X + 4).
(c) Find r[X > 2 or X < 0].
(d) Let Y Ⅵ (-1, 3). Find the expectation of X + 2Y.
3. (4 points) Given a sample, X1 , X2 , . . . , Xn , a researcher computes the sample mean and sample standard deviation. To test the hypothesis H0 : μ = 1 vs. H1 : μ 1, she computes the t-statistic, which is jTj = 1.87. For the following claims, determine if they are true/false (write T or F in the boxes).
(a) She will reject the hypothesis at the 5% level.
(b) The 90% conidence interval contains 1.
(c) It is not possible to determine whether the 99% conidence interval contains 0.
(d) The p-value for testing the hypothesis H0 : μ = 1 is larger than 0.025.
