Yes

Question 9

Rachael and Peter are discussing how the mean value and variance affect the distribution graph. As the following graph shows, there are two distributions: A and B

Peter said that the distribution A has fatter tail because its has bigger standard deviation than the distribution B. Rachael''s answer is different:she thinks the distribution A has a smaller standard deviation than the distribution B. Who do you think is right?

Peter

Rachael

Neither of them are right. Distribution A and Distribution B have the same standard Deviation

Question 10

Which of the following descriptions of null hypothesis are correct? (Select all that apply)

A null hypothesis is a hypothesis tested in significance testing

The parameter of a null hypothesis is commonly 0

The aim of all research is to prove the null hypothesis is true

Researchers can reject the null hypothesis if the P-value is above 0.05
