Contingency Table

A contingency table can be defined as the visual representation of the relationship between two or more categorical variables that can be evaluated and registered. It is a categorical version of the scatterplot, which is used to investigate the linear relationship between two variables. A contingency table is indeed a type of frequency distribution table that displays two variables at the same time.

Binomial Distribution

Binomial is an algebraic expression of the sum or the difference of two terms. Before knowing about binomial distribution, we must know about the binomial theorem.

24. A sports medicine major wanted to conduct an experiment to determine if there is a correlation between the members of the soccer team's leg strength and the time it takes for them to sprint 40 yards. He sets up the following test and records the data: Every day for a week, he counts how mnany times each player can leg press 350 pounds. The following week, he has each player sprint 40 yards every day. The table shows the average number of leg-press repetitions and the average 40-yard dash time (in seconds) for seven randomly selected players. What is the equation of the line of best fir?

5. In the United States, there is a strong relationship between education and smoking: well-educated people are less likely to smoke. Does a similar relationship hold in France? To find out, researchers recorded the level of education and smoking status of a random sample of 459 French men aged 20 to 60 years.36 The two-way table below displays the data. Is there convincing evidence of an association between smoking status and educational level among French men aged 20 to 60 years?

Page 160 #17 We predict that children exhibit more aggressive act after watching a violent television show. The scores for ten children were recorded before they watched a violent show and then after they watched a violent show. Aggression was measured in terms of number of aggressive acts (e.g. hitting, yelling, kicking etc). Sample 1 (after TV show): 5,6,4,4,7,3,2,1,4,1 Sample 2 (before TV show): 4,6,3,2,4,1,0,0,5,2 Is this a one-tailed or two-tailed test?
Medical researchers followed 6272 Swedish men for 30 years to see if there was any association between the amount of fish in their diet and prostate cancer. (“Fatty Fish Consumption and Risk of Prostate Cancer,” Lancet, June 2001). A summary of the data is given in the table below. Fish Consumption No Prostate Cancers Prostate Cancers Never/Seldom 110 14 Small part of diet 2420 201 Moderate part of diet 2769 209 Large part of diet 507 42 A) If a patient is randomly selected, what is the probability that he/she had prostate cancer given that fish was never or seldom a part of the diet? Round your answer to three decimal places and include the leading zero. B) If a patient is randomly selected, what is the probability that s/he ate fish as a large part of their diet given that they had prostate cancer. Round your answer to two decimal places and include the leading zero.
2. Reporting on cheats What proportion of students are willing to report cheating by other students? A student project put this question to an SRS of 172 undergraduates at a large university: "You witness two students cheating on a quiz. Do you go to the professor?" Only 11% answered "Yes." The dotplot shows the proportion who would go to the professor in each of 1000 random samples of size 172 from a population where 11% would go to the professor. 17 0.1 0.15 0.2 0.25 Simulated sample proportion who would say "Yes" 0 0.05 Distribution of simulated proportion # samples 1000 mean 0.11 SD 0.024 (a) Use the results of the simulation to approximate the margin of error for Gallup's estimate of the proportion of U.S. adults who were satisfied with the way things were going in the United States at the time of the poll. (b) Interpret the margin of error.
Is there a relation between incidents of child abuse and number of runaway children? A random sample of cities (over 10,000 population) gave the following information about the number of reported incidents of child abuse and the number of runaway children.

3. Some sports psychologists believe that an athlete's motivation is related to how many hours they will devote to training in a 2-week period. To see if this is true, a sports trainer measures the motivation (M) and training hours (TH) of a random sample of 8 Olympic-class athletes and obtains the following data: M TH 57 40 74 46 42 38 48 36 75 54 62 42 665 76 550 69 25 a) Is there a significant correlation between M and TH in this sample (a≤.05)? (8 points) b) If another athlete obtained an M score of 70, what would his or her predicted TH score be and what are the 90% bounds to the error of this prediction? (10 points)
5. A health spa claims that a new exercise program will reduce a person 's waist size at least 2 centimeters on average over a 5-day period. The waist sizes, in centimeters, of six men who participated in this exercise program are recorded before and after the 5-day period in the following table: Man | Waist Size Before 90.4 95.5 98.7 115.9 104.0 85.6 Waist Size After 91.7 93.9 97.4 3. 4. 5n 6. 112.8 101.3 84.0 By computing a 96%confidence interval for the mean reduction in waist size, determine whether the health spa's claim is valid. Assume the distribution of differences in waist sizes before and after the program to be approximately normal.
