10. The purpose of hypothesis testing is to:

Determine evidence in favor of a parameter.(b) .

11. Chebyshev's Theorem states that the percentage of measurements in a data set that fall within two standard deviations of their mean is:  

At least 75%.(b)

[ according to Chebyshev's rule at least of data lies within k sd of the mean.

here, k = 2

the percentage of data that lies within 2 sd from the mean is :-

at least ]

12. Normally distributed data are referred to as:

Bell-shaped (a)
