In answering on a multiple choice test, a student either know the answer or guesses. Let p be the probability that the students

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

$P(A_{1}|B ) =\frac{mp}{1+p(m-1)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

For mutually exclusive events as A1, A2, A3, etc, Bayes' theorem states:

$P(A|B)= \frac{P(B|A)P(A)}{P(B)}$

P(A|B) is a conditional probability: the likelihood of event A occurring given that B is true.

P(B|A) is a conditional probability: the likelihood of event B occurring given that A is true.

P(A) is the probability that A occurs

P(B) is the probability that B occurs

For this problem:

A1 is the probability that the student knows the answer

A2 is the probability that the student guesses the answer

B is the probability that the student answer correctly

$P(A_{1})=p \\P(A_{2})=1-p \\P(B|A_{1})=1 \\P(B|A_{2})=\frac{1}{m} \\P(B)= P(A_{1})P(B|A_{1}) + P(A_{2})P(B|A_{2})= p+\frac{1-p}{m} \\$

P(B|A₁) means the probability that the answer is correct when he knew the answer

P(B|A₂) means the probability that the answer is correct when he guessed the answer

P(A₁|B) means the probability that he knew the answer when the answer was correct

Replacing everything in the Bayes' theorem you get:

$P(A_{1}|B)= \frac{P(B|A_{1})P(A_{1})}{P(B)}=\frac{(1)(p)}{p+\frac{1-p}{m}} =\frac{mp}{mp+1-p} =\frac{mp}{1+p(m-1)}$

Inferential statistics allow you to decide whether a difference between the experimental and the control group is due to:_______

den301095 [7]

Answer:

Option (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 main branches of statistics. They are:

1. Descriptive Statistics

2. Inferential Statistics

Descriptive statistics describes the characteristics of observed subjects or items while Inferential statistics makes inferences, based on given or derived data.

Inferential Statistics allow you to decide whether a difference between the experimental group and control group is due to <u>manipulation or chance.</u>

<u />

The Experimental group is the group that an effect is tested on while the Control group is the group that is left untested or uninfluenced. Inferential statistics allow you to decide whether a difference between these 2 groups is due to

- manipulation or interference by any force (which may be the experimenter/researcher)

- probability which is chance.
