    1. Aregression
    2. BF-test (analysis of variance)
    3. Ct-test
    4. DPearson correlation
  2. 2If both the independent and dependent variables are measured on nominal scales, the most appropriate statistical test would be a ____?
    1. APearson correlation
    2. BF-test (analysis of variance)
    3. Ct-test
    4. Dchi-square
  3. 3Joe is interested in the popularity of different flavours of ice cream. For each person that orders one ice cream cone, Joe makes a note of which flavour was ordered. At the end of the day, Joe tallies up his data: 11 Vanilla, 30 Chocolate, and 13 Strawberry. What is the null hypothesis that Joe is testing?
    1. AThe expected frequencies for Vanilla, Chocolate, and Strawberry are equal.
    2. BThe expected frequencies for Vanilla is 20%, Chocolate is 60%, and Strawberry is 20%.
    3. CThe expected frequencies for Vanilla is 10%, Chocolate is 30%, and Strawberry is 60%.
    4. DAll of the above are plausible null hypotheses (it just depends what you expect).
    5. ENeither A, B, or C are appropriate null hypotheses for a Goodness of Fit Chi-square.
