(01.02, 02.01 MC) A surveyor randomly interviewed 65,439 people who live in Virginia to gather information on whether national healthcare is accomplishing its goals.Part A: What are the population and sample in this survey? (4 points)Part B: The survey found that 71% of females and 88% of males visited a family doctor at least once in the past year. Do you think these approximations of the sample are close to approximations of the entire population? Explain. (6 points) (10 points)

(02.04 LC) For a certain experiment, the available experimental units are six people: three females (f) and three males (m). Use (1f, 2f, 3f) to denote the females and (1m, 2m, 3m) to denote the males. There are to be three treatment groups: A, B, and C. If a randomized block design is used, with the experimental units blocked by gender, which assignment of treatments is not correct? (5 points)

(02.05 MC) You want to know the opinions of home-schooled students across America on whether they prefer to learn at home versus at a public school with other students. You obtain a list of all home-schooled students and mail a survey to a random sample of 7,500 students. Of those, 4,195 responded and 39% say they prefer to learn at home. Which of the following statements is true? (5 points)

(01.02 LC) A survey was taken of students in math classes to find out how many hours per day students spend on social media. The survey results for the first-, second-, and third-period classes are as follows: First period: 2, 4, 3, 1, 0, 2, 1, 3, 1, 4, 9, 2, 4, 3, 0 Second period: 3, 2, 3, 1, 3, 4, 2, 4, 3, 1, 0, 2, 3, 1, 2 Third period: 4, 5, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4, 1, 8, 2, 3, 1, 0, 2, 1, 3 Which is the best measure of center for second period and why?

(02.04 MC) You are interested in determining which of two brands of light bulbs, brand A and brand B, lasts longer under differing conditions of use. Fifty Bovano lamps are fitted with brand A light bulbs and 50 Bulbrite lamps are fitted with brand B light bulbs. Each light bulb is left on for 20,000 hours straight. Light bulb life is then measured for each bulb, and the average light bulb life for the two brands is compared. What is wrong with this experimental design? (5 points)
