Questions 2:

A sample of 438 observations is randomly selected from a population. The mean

inequality, the endpoints of the interval that must contain at least 88.89% of the 

observations are closest to:

B 、396 and 480.

C 、354 and 410

【Answer to question 1】A

【analysis】

A is correct. Sample selection bias often results when a lack of data availability leads to certain data being excluded from the analysis. Survivorship bias is an example of sample selection bias. 

B is incorrect. Data mining bias relates to the overuse of the same or related data, i.e., searching for pattern. And survivorship bias is not an example of data mining bias. 

C is incorrect. Look-ahead bias exists if the model uses data not available to the analyst at the time the analyst act on the model. Survivorship bias is not an example of look-ahead bias

【Answer to question 2】A

【analysis】

A is correct. According to Chebyshev’s inequality, the proportion of the observations within k standard deviations of the arithmetic mean is at least 1 – 1/k2 for all k >1. For k = 3, that proportion is 1 – 1/32, which is 88.89%. The lower endpoint is, therefore, the mean (382) minus 3 times 14 (the standard deviation), and the upper endpoint is 382 plus 3 times 14 (i.e., 340 and 424, respectively). 

C is incorrect; it is based on 2 standard deviations, not 3: 382 – 2 × 14 = 354 and 382 + 2 × 14 = 410. 

B is incorrect; it centers the interval around the number of observations (438) rather than the mean (382)

成功=时间+方法,自制力是这个等式的保障。世上无天才,高手都是来自刻苦的练习。而人们经常只看到“牛人”闪耀的成绩,其成绩背后无比寂寞的勤奋。小编相信,每天都在勤奋练习,即使是一点点的进步,大家一定可以成为人人称赞的“牛人”。
