<p><strong>Such questions ought to be moderated on their merits and not on any intentions we might impute to the OP.</strong>  Whether it's &quot;homework&quot; is irrelevant.</p>
<p>When the question is perfunctory – that includes true/false and multiple choice questions, as well as questions with no statistical context – that makes it <em>clearly</em> a self-study question from <em>our</em> perspective, regardless of how the OP is using it.</p>
<p>When a question – as in this example – is copied without appropriate context or preparation, rendering it meaningless or ambiguous, it doesn't matter whether it's considered self-study or not: it's not on topic here.</p>
<p>Therein is the problematic nature of objectively self-study questions: the OP usually cannot provide any kind of statistical objective or any deeper explanation of what they are hoping to achieve.  In most cases that reduces the question to mere calculation, often makes it a duplicate, and makes further clarification (on the part of the OP) impossible.</p>
