AP stat

3. a formal procedure for using observed data to decide between two competing claims
4. claim we weigh evidence against in a significance test
6. the specific value of a point estimator
9. two events are (blank) when the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of the occurrence of the other
11. the claim that we are trying to find evidence for in a significance test
13. the success rate of the method that produces the confidence interval
14. if we reject the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is true
18. tells how close the estimate tends to be to the unknown parameter in repeated random sampling
20. if the observed result is not very unlikely to occur when the null hypothesis is true

1. if we fail to reject the null hypothesis when the alternative hypothesis is true
2. if the p-value is less than alpha
5. The probability, computed assuming the null hypothesis is true, that the statistic would take a value as extreme as or more extreme than the one actually observed
7. the number of values that can vary in a stats calculation
8. if the observed result is too unlikely to occur just by chance when the null hypothesis is true
10. when the standard deviation of a statistic is estimated from data, the result is the (blank) of the statistic
12. a statistic that provides an estimate of a population parameter
15. statistic + or - (critical value)(standard deviation of statistic)
16. the (blank) distrubution refers to a family of continuous probability distributions described by the (blank) equation
17. a factor used to compute the margin of error, as shown in a certain equation
19. when the value of a variable is determined by a chance event
