PART I: Identification. Write your answer on the space provided.
________________ 1) The practice or science of collecting, organizing, analyzing and interpreting data in large
quantities, especially for the purpose of inferring proportions in a whole from those in a
representative sample.
________________ 2) Is a statistical calculation figured by adding together previously tabulated relative frequencies to
make a running total along frequency table.
________________ 3) Type of graph which represents data in a way that a series of points are to be connected by
segments of straight line. The data points are plotted on a graph and they are joined together with
straight line.
________________ 4) When the characteristic under study concerns a qualitative trait that is only classified in categories.
________________ 5) A mathematical function showing the number of instances in which a variable takes each of its
possible values.
________________ 6) Is a record consisting of pictorial symbols or symbolic figures representing a certain number of
people, cars, etc.
________________ 7) The respondents gives information in compliance with certain laws, policies, regulations, decrees
or standard practices.
________________ 8) The process whereby the researcher observes the research situation.
________________ 9) When the characteristic under study is measured on a numerical scale, the resulting data consist of
a set of numbers.
________________ 10) Is the set of measurements corresponding to the entire collection of units for which inferences are
to be made.
________________ 11) Type of graph which contains rectangles or rectangular bars. the bars may be plotted either
horizontally or vertically.
________________ 12) A frequency distribution where each of the class frequencies is divided by the total number of
observations.
________________ 13) Is a measure of the likelihood that a particular event will occur.
________________ 14) Is a smaller number of observations taken from the total number making up population.
________________ 15) An arrangement of a set of objects or things where order does not count.
________________ 16) It is defined as a graph which contains a circle which is divided into sectors, and these sectors
illustrates the numerical proportion of the data.
________________ 17) The probability that an event will occur exactly r times out of n trials.
________________ 18) It is the sum of the class and all classes below it in a frequency distribution.
________________ 19) Is the likelihood that an event will occur expressed as the ratio of the number of favorable
outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes.
________________ 20) An arrangement of things called elements with a definite or a specific order.
