Are you any good at mathematics? Do you imagine you can succeed at taking this quiz? Math is the science of structure and order, which has changed from elemental practices of counting, measuring, and describing the object. Some mathematics branches are characterized by a strict set of rules and parameters, with examples including algebra, geometry, and calculus. Taking this quiz will help you discover if you are a math whiz!

- 8.A company selling home appliances claims that the accompanying instruction manuals are written at a 6th-grade reading level. An English teacher believes that the true figure is higher and with the help of an AP Stat student runs a hypothesis test. The student randomly picks one page from each of 25 of the company's instructions manuals, and the teacher subjects the pages to a standard readability test. The reading levels of the 25 pages are given in the following table: Reading Grade Level 5 6 7 8 9 10 Number of pages 6 10 4 2 2 1 Is there statistical evidence to support the English teacher's belief?
- A.
No, because the p-value is greater than .10
- B.
Yes, the p-value is between .01 and .05 indicating some evidence for the teacher's belief.
- C.
Yes, the p-value is between .001 and .01 indicating strong evidence for the teacher's belief.
- D.
Yes, the p-value is between .05 and .10 indicating strong evidence for the teacher's belief.
- E.
Yes, the p-value is less than .001 indicating strong evidence for the teacher's belief.

![Thirty students volunteer to test which of two strategies for taking multiple-choice exams leads to higher average results. Each student flips a coin, and if heads, uses Strategy A on the first exam and then Strategy B on the second exam, while if tails, uses Strategy B first and then Strategy A. The average of all 30 Strategy A result is then compared to the average of all 30 Strategy B results.

The observed difference in average scores is significant.
- B.
The observed difference in average scores is not significant.
- C.
A conclusion is not possible without knowing the average scores resulting from using each strategy.
- D.
A conclusion is not possible without knowing the averages scores and the standard deviations resulting from using each strategy.
- E.
A two-sample hypothesis test should not be used here.
