A process of spatial competition allocates various farming activities into rings around a central market city, with profit-earning capability the determining force in how far a crop locates from the market4

7869484141Judas- (n) a traitor or a treacherous kiss (a Judas kiss) ; one of the 12 Apostles, notorious for betraying Jesus. His surname in Latin means "murderer" or "assassin." Judas disclosed Jesus' whereabouts to the chief priests and elders for thirty pieces of silver15
7869486642King Ahab and Jezabel- an evil king of Israel and his treacherous evil wife, synonymous today with evil. Through her marriage to Ahab, Jezebel introduced the worship of Baal, an idol, to Israel, inciting mutual enmity with the prophets. She instigated the murder of Naboth for the possession of a vineyard. Today Jezebel means a brazen or forward woman16
7869491311Manna- a sustaining life-giving source or food; from the sweetish bread-like food that fell from heaven for the Israelites as they crossed the Sinai Desert to the Promised Land with Moses17

7869509223Prodigal Son- a wasteful son who disappoints his father; from the NT parable of a man with two sons. When he split his estate between the two, the younger son gathered his fortune and left home to live the wild life, while the older son stayed home to work in the fields. When the younger son spent all of the money, he came crawling back to his father, who accepted him, pardoning his error by saying he was "lost but was found."21
7869510937Ruth and Naomi- paragons of love between in-laws; faithful friends. From the OT story of Ruth, who, when her husband died in battle, left her own land to travel with his mother back to her people.22
7869512053Samson and Delilah- Treacherous love story. Samson, an Israelite hero and legendary warrior with extraordinary physical strength, fell in love with Delilah, a Philistine. When Delilah learned that Samson's hair was the source of his strength, she betrayed him by excepting a Philistine bribe to cut off his hair while he slept. Today the name Delilah is associated with a voluptuous, treacherous woman.23
7869513240Scapegoat- (n) one that is made an object of blame for others; the goat was symbolically burdened with the sins of Jewish people and thrown over a precipice outside of Jerusalem to rid the nation of iniquities.24

10337809301probability of a Type II Error?overlap normal distribution for null and true. Find rejection line. Use normalcdf161
10337809302when do you use z tests?for proportions162
10337809303when do you use t tests?for mean (population standard deviation unknown)163
10337809304finding p value for t teststcdf(min, max, df)164
10337809305Sample paired t teststate--> Ho: μ1-μ2=0 (if its difference) plan --> one sample, paired t test check --> random, normal, independent do --> find test statistic and p value conclude --> normal conclusion165
10337809306What does statistically significant mean in context of a problem?The sample mean/proportion is far enough away from the true mean/proportion that it couldn't have happened by chance166
10337809307When doing a paired t-test, to check normality, what do you do?check the differences histogram (μ1-μ2)167
10337809308How to interpret a C% Confidence LevelIn C% of all possible samples of size n, we will construct an interval that captures the true parameter (in context).168
10337809309How to interpret a C% Confidence IntervalWe are C% confident that the interval (_,_) will capture the true parameter (in context).169
10337809310What conditions must be checked before constructing a confidence interval?random, normal, independent170
10337809311C% confidence intervals of sample proportions, 5 step processState: Construct a C% confidence interval to estimate... Plan: one sample z-interval for proportions Check: Random, Normal, Independent Do: Find the standard error and z*, then p hat +/- z* Conclude: We are C% confident that the interval (_,_) will capture the true parameter (in context).171
10337809336What's the z interval standard error formula?172
10337809312How do you find z*?InvNorm(#)173
10337809313How do you find the point estimate of a sample?subtract the max and min confidence interval, divide it by two (aka find the mean of the interval ends)174
10337809314How do you find the margin of error, given the confidence interval?Ask, "What am I adding or subtracting from the point estimate?" So find the point estimate, then find the difference between the point estimate and the interval ends175
10337809315Finding sample size proportions: When p hat is unknown, or you want to guarantee a margin of error less than or equal to:use p hat=.5176
10337809316Finding the confidence interval when the standard deviation of the population is *known*x bar +/- z*(σ/√n)177
10337809317Checking normal condition for z* (population standard deviation known)starts normal or CLT178
10337809318Finding the confidence interval when the standard deviation of the population is *unknown* (which is almost always true)x bar +/- t*(Sx/√n)179
10337809319degrees of freedomn-1180
10337809320How do you find t*?InvT(area to the left, df)181
10337809321What is the standard error?same as standard deviation, but we call it "standard error" because we plugged in p hat for p (we are estimating)182
10337809322a point estimator is a statistic that...provides an estimate of a population parameter.183
10337809323Explain the two conditions when the margin of error gets smaller.Confidence level C decreases, sample size n increases184
10337809324Does the confidence level tell us the chance that a particular confidence interval captures the population parameter?NO; the confidence interval gives us a set of plausible values for the parameter185
10337809325Sx and σx: which is which?Sx is for a sample, σx is for a population186
10337809326How do we know when do use a t* interval instead of a z interval?you are not given the population standard deviation187
10337809327Checking normal condition for t* (population standard deviation unknown)Normal for sample size... -n -n<15: if the data appears closely normal (roughly symmetric, single peak, no outliers)188
10337809328How to check if a distribution is normal for t*, population n<15plug data into List 1, look at histogram. Conclude with "The histogram looks roughly symmetric, so we should be safe to use the t distribution)189
10337809329t* confidence interval, 5 step processState: Construct a __% confidence interval to estimate... Plan: one sample t interval for a population mean Check: Random, Normal, Independent (for Normal, look at sample size and go from there) Do: Find the standard error (Sx/√n) and t*, then do x bar +/- t*(standard error) Conclude: We are __% confident that the interval (_,_) will capture the true parameter (in context).190
10337809330margin of error formulaz* or t* (standard error)191
10337809331When calculating t interval, what is it and where do you find the data?x bar plus or minus t* (Sx/√n) -get x bar and Sx using 1 Var Stats -t*=Invt(area to the left, df) -population (n) will be given192
10337809332What is it looking for if it asks for the appropriate critical value?z/t* interval193
