- Explain how you determined if there was an outlier or not.
2. (30 pts). RIT claims that 34% of its students are female. The School of Mathematical Sciences would like to know if this is true for students who take Data Analysis. A class of 40 students this quarter has 18 females. Does this sample provide evidence that the percentage of female students in Data Analysis is different from the overall percentage of female students at RIT?
Step #1 – Identify the Population Type
Step #2 – Describe the population quantity of interest in WORDS
Step #3 – State H 0 and H a in SYMBOLS
Step #4 – What is your level of significance, α = _____________.
Step #5 – What sample information is given?
Step #6 – Write the formula for the test statistic
Step #7 – Check that p follows a normal distribution.
Step #8 – Compute the test statistic and p-value to 3 significant figures.
Step #9 – What is your conclusion? This should be stated in terms of Reject H 0 or Fail to Reject H 0 with additional explanation.
3. (10 pts) Below are state math test results for 13 students in an elementary school. The test was administered when the students where in the 4 th grade and again in the 8 th grade. If you assume that the 4 th grade test score is a good predictor of the 8 th grade score, what is the slope of the linear
regression line? __________________(to 3 significant figures)
How much of the variation is accounted for by this linear model?
(to 3 significant figures)________________
4 th Grade Score | 8 th Grade Score | 4 th Grade Score | 8 th Grade Score | |
45 | 42 | 56 | 65 | |
52 | 56 | 58 | 55 | |
37 | 39 | 42 | 49 | |
72 | 68 | 65 | 61 | |
31 | 39 | 38 | 45 | |
61 | 73 | 27 | 29 | |
47 | 41 | 42 | 39 |
4. (10 pts) Given the information in the table, determine the numeric answer to the probability functions or information requested below. Assume all events are with replacement and calculate your answers to 3 significant figures.
Color | Blue | Brown | Green | Orange | Red | Yellow |
# M&Ms | 20 | 17 | 4 | 5 | 33 | 19 |
Defining the following events:
A = {Yellow, Orange, Green, Brown}
B = {Red, Orange, Brown}
C = {Blue}
- P(A B) = ________________________
- Probability of removing a green or a brown M&M from the bag. ____________
- Probability of removing M&M from the bag that is not Red or Yellow. ________
- P(B C) = ___________________
- P(C c ) = ______________________
5. (8 pts) You would like to determine the proportion of good avocados from a recent truckload of 10,000 which you expect to contain about 18% good avocados. If you would like to determine the actual proportion of good avocados to within 0.02 of your expected value with confidence interval on this determination of the 95% confidence level, how many avocados would you have to check?
6. (7 pts) Recently, the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation sampled the weight of male frogs in the 5 ponds at RIT (the sixth one was inadvertently omitted). The weight of frogs is believed to be normally distributed for all 6 ponds. Given the weight in grams of the frogs below, what is the confidence interval that would include the population mean for a 90% confidence level to 3 significant figures.
