  2. $2,039.09
  3. $2,048.05
  4. $5,157.34
  5. $5,180.00

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

On the BAII Plus, press 6 N, 8 I/Y, 3250 PV, 0 PMT, CPT FV. On the HP12C, press 6 n, 8 i, 3250 PV, 0 PMT, FV. Note that the answer will be displayed as a negative number. Make sure the BAII Plus has the P/Y value set to 1.



What is the standard error of estimate?

  1. Based on squared vertical deviations between Y and Y'
  2. None of these answers
  3. Measure of the accuracy of the prediction
  4. Cannot be negative
  5. All of these answers

Answer(s): E

Explanation:

All the descriptions are correct for the standard error of estimate.



What does a coefficient of correlation of 0.70 mean?

  1. Coefficient of determination is 0.49
  2. Almost no correlation because 0.70 is close to 1.0
  3. 70% of the variation in one variable is explained by the other
  4. Coefficient of nondetermination is 0.30
  5. None of these answers

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The coefficient of correlation, r, is just the square root of the coefficient of determination r-squared.



A bell-shaped, symmetrical frequency distribution has a mean of 45. If 95% of the observations on the variable fall between 30 and 60, the standard deviation of the variable is:

  1. 5.00
  2. 7.50
  3. Insufficient information
  4. 15.0

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

95% of the observations in a bell-shaped, symmetrical frequency distribution lie within approximately 2 standard deviations of the mean. The standard deviation is then (45-30)/2 = 7.50.
