A local bank has three branch offices. The bank has a liberal sick leave policy, and the CEO was concerned with employees taking advantage of this policy. She thought that the tendency to take advantage depended on the branch at which the employee worked. To see if there were differences in the time employees took for sick leave, she asked each branch manager to sample employees randomly and record the number of days of sick leave taken during 2020. Ten employees were chosen, and the data are listed below. Do this data indicate a difference in branches? Use a level of significance of 0.05.

A survey of employees at a large financial organisation was conducted to determine the overall sentiment towards various aspects of how the company operates. 30 randomly selected departments in the organisation participated in the study. Every employee in these 30 randomly selected departments filled in a questionnaire, and the data were aggregated to calculate the following two variables of interest: Rating The percentage of favourable responses (in each department) to the overall running of the company. ComplaintsThe percentage of favourable responses (in each department) to how the company handles employee complaints Source: Chatterjee, S. and Price, B. (1977) Regression Analysis by Example. New York: Wiley. (Section 3.7, p.68ff of 2nd ed. (1991).) A simple linear regression was conducted.

Security scans are often completed on computers in a particular college to assess the security risk from viruses etc. A sample of 120 computers which are considered at risk for viruses and other security issues are checked with a particular security scanner on a Monday and then monitored over the following week. The number of computers which broke down over the following week were recorded. The results are as follows: Security Scan (% Risk) Breakdown No Breakdown Low Risk (0 - 10%) 3 61 Slight/Moderate Risk (10 – 30%) 13 28 High Risk (>30%) 12 3 (i) Based on the above sample work out the probability that a computer in the college will breakdown.

The Interpersonal Reactivity Index is a survey designed to assess four different types of empathy. One type of empathy, called Empathetic Concern, measures the tendency to feel sympathy and compassion for people who are less fortunate. The index ranges from 0 (less empathetic) to 28 (more empathetic). The following data, representing random samples of 8 males and 8 females, are consistent with results reported in psychological studies. Boxplots show that it is reasonable to assume that the populations are approximately normal and have equal variances. Males 13 20 14 16 13 26 21 23 Females 22 20 26 25 28 24 16 19 Can you conclude that there is a difference in mean empathy score between men and women? Use a=0.03.

In the NFL, Coaches can throw "challenge" flags if they believe officials have made an incorrect call on the field. Then, based upon further analysis, the call is either overturned (because the referees were incorrect) or upheld (referees were correct). In the first eight weeks of last NFL season, there were 316 challenges made, with 154 of those calls overturned. The NFL team owners used this data to begin a lawsuit that claimed referees were wrong more than 50% of the time in challenged situations. They want to perform statistical analysis before filing that lawsuit. For the following question, select the answer which correctly responds. 0.50
A certain virus affects 0.7% of the population. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 87% of the time if the person has the virus (true positive) and 14% of the time if the person does not have the virus (false positive). Fill out the remainder of the following table and use it to answer the two questions below based on a total sample of 100,000 people. Virus No Virus TotalPositive Test Negative Test Total 100,000a) Find the probability that a person has the virus given that they have tested positive. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a percent and do not include a percent sign. % b) Find the probability that a person does not have the virus given that they test negative. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a percent and do not include a percent sign. %
When I was an undergraduate, I helped my father conduct some Child Psychology research about parental influence on gender bias. In this study we interviewed 158 kindergarteners. Our initial question was "What is your favorite color?" where we studied the distribution of "Pink" and "Blue" responses. To our surprise, 38 of the students interviewed responded "Turquoise". Use this information to select the response which correctly answers the question. Being curious, we decided to further interview the children who responded "Turquoise". While he took a lunch break, he told me to select 5 such children to form a group for interviews. How many different possible groups could I have formed? O 769754986 O 5.297 x 1036 O 501942 O 1109750
