Match the items in List - I with items in List - II :

List - IList - II
a. \(\mu \pm 2\sigma\)i. 99.7%
b. \(\mu \pm 3\sigma\)ii. 66%
c. \(\mu \pm 1\sigma\)iii. p = 0.045
d. \(\alpha \lt 0.05\)iv. 95%
e. \(\alpha \lt 0.01\)v. p = .002
vi. 99%
vii. 68%
viii. p = 0.055

Codes : a b c d e

  • A.iv i vii iii v
  • B.iv i ii viii v
  • C.vi i ii iii viii
  • D.iv vi vii viii v

Answer: A

The correct match is a-iv, b-i, c-vii, d-iii, e-v. The range of the mean plus or minus two standard deviations holds 95 percent of a normal distribution, plus or minus three holds 99.7 percent, and plus or minus one holds about 68 percent. A value of p = 0.045 is below 0.05 and p = .002 is below 0.01, so they go with the two alpha levels. This is the first option, and the others give the one-sigma range the wrong figure, so they are rejected.
