A bag contains 5 red balls, 3 blue balls, and 2 green balls. If one ball is randomly selected from the bag: What is the probability of selecting a red ball? What is the probability of selecting a blue ball? What is the probability of not selecting a green ball?

What are the key differences between parametric and non-parametric statistical tests, and when would you choose one over the other? Provide an example of each type of test.

A biologist is measuring the heights of various plant species and records the values in centimeters. The measurements are represented as numerical values to reflect the size of each plant. What type of representation are they using for the plant height variable?

Given the following data X={ 23, 27, 18, 44, 44, 14, 25, 36, 45, 42, 41}.  Write the R code for calculating standard deviation and z score. Use the long form for calculating variance and standard deviation.  I don’t need to see the results of the calculation, I only need the R code. 

A researcher is studying the average weight of a specific species of fish in a lake. They collect multiple samples of 50 fish each and calculate the sample means for each sample. What can the researcher expect about the sampling distribution of the sample means as the sample size increases?

A data analyst is studying the relationship between hours of study and exam scores among a group of students. After calculating the correlation coefficient, they find a value of r=0.85. What does this value suggest about the relationship between hours of study and exam scores?

A biologist is studying the relationship between plant growth and environmental factors, such as light exposure, soil type, and water availability. Using statistical analysis, they want to identify how these factors affect plant height. What are the objectives of this statistical analysis, and which of the following would not be part of it?

The unemployment rate is usually a leading indicator of the overall business cycle.

For business leaders, trends in capacity utilization are a key leading indicator of overall economic activity. A declining utilization rate provides a signal that firms expect strong demand for their goods in the near future.
