a) 5.1
b) 19.1
c) 20.9
d) 51.4

e) none of the answers above is correct

3. The significance level represents
a) the error of the 1st kind,
b) the error of the 2nd kind,
c) the probability of the error of the 1st kind,
d) the probability of the error of the 2nd kind,
e) none of the answers above is correct.

4. For assessment of independence of two alternative properties the χ 2 -test of independence has been applied, giving the resulting test criterion value χ2 = 5.26.

The critical values are χ20.05(1) = 3.841 and χ2 0.01(1) = 6.635.

The decision :
a) the null hypothesis of independence can be rejected at α = 0.01 significance level, it cannot be rejected at α = 0.05 significance level;
b) the null hypothesis of independence can be rejected at α = 0.05 significance level, it cannot be rejected at α = 0.01 significance level;
c) the null hypothesis of independence cannot be rejected at any of the significance levels given;
d) we reject the null hypothesis of independence at the α = 0.05 significance level,as well as at the
α = 0.01 significance level;
e) none of the answers above is correct.

7. A partial regression coefficient can assume values from :
a) the interval <0 ; 1>
b) the interval (0 ; 1)
c) the interval <-1 ; +1>
d) the interval (-∞ ; +∞)
e) none of the answers above is correct

8. Relationship of the turnover Y (CZK th. per staffmember) upon the number of staff X has been described by the regression straight line y´ = 842 + 115 x .
