Mathematics Question on Percentage
Match List-I with List-II.
| List-I | List-II |
|---|---|
| (A) Confidence level | (I) Percentage of all possible samples that can be expected to include the true population parameter |
| (B) Significance level | (III) The probability of making a wrong decision when the null hypothesis is true |
| (C) Confidence interval | (II) Range that could be expected to contain the population parameter of interest |
| (D) Standard error | (IV) The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of a statistic |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A
(A)-(I), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(IV)
B
(A)-(I), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(II)
C
(A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(IV), (D)-(III)
D
(A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
Answer
(A)-(I), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(IV)
Explanation
Solution
Match the terms from List-I to their corresponding definitions in List-II:
- (A) Confidence level: Refers to the percentage of all possible samples expected to include the true population parameter. Hence, (A)-(I).
- (B) Significance level: Represents the probability of making a wrong decision when the null hypothesis is true. Hence, (B)-(III).
- (C) Confidence interval: The range that could be expected to contain the population parameter of interest. Hence, (C)-(II).
- (D) Standard error: The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of a statistic. Hence, (D)-(IV).
Thus, the correct match is:
(A) - (I), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (IV).
