After an introductory statistics course, 60% of students can successfully construct box plots. Of those who can construct box plots, 90% passed, while only 70% of those students who could not construct box plots passed. To solve a problem like this, it is often helpful to organize the information in a two-way table first. Suppose that the course had 100 students (any sample size will do, but it is often best to pick "nice" numbers. Complete the table below and then compute the probability. Can construct a box plot Cannot construct a box plot Total Passed Failed Total 100 What is the probability that a randomly chosen student is able to construct a box plot if it is known that she passed?

A pollster wishes to estimate the number of left-handed scientists. How large a sample is needed in order to be 95% confident that the sample proportion will not differ from the true proportion by more than 4%? A previous study indicates that the proportion of left-handed scientists is 8%.
1. Use the results of simulation to appropriate the margin of error for hackers estimate of the proportion of students at his school that can roll their tongue 1b . Interpret the margin of error
The foreman at a large plant estimates that there are defective parts about 1% of the time. If the plant produces 20,000 parts in a week, what is the variance for the number of defective parts?
A sports equipment manufacturer has developed a new reasonably priced golf ball that it hopes will allow average golfers to hit the ball straighter. A concern is that this new technology might impact on the distance that the ball travels. To compare distances, Sarah, a company researcher, conducts an experiment where 20 current balls and 20 new balls are subjected to distance tests, using a mechanical hitting device for consistency. The results of the tests, with distances given to the nearest metre, are given in Table 1.

A small university was looking to recruit students for their golf program during Freshman orientation. Each organization would be allotted 10 minutes to give a small presentation about their program. The golf coach wants to discuss the programs golf over the past five years during his presentation. To do this, he plans to take samples of the scores from both practice rounds and games. He has recruited students from Statistics class to help him determine which statistic would be best to use to display the scores. The students have narrowed it down to four different statistics. For each statistic, the coach has taken 100 random samples of golf scores over the past five years and the statistic is calculated for each sample. Suppose the value for the population parameter he is trying to estimate is a score of 75. ALL GRAPHS ARE IN THE ATTACHED PICTURE!! THANK YOU!! a) For each graph above, identify whether the statistic appears to have a biased or unbiased estimator of the population…

You may need to use the appropriate technology to answer this question. Suppose a company surveyed the work preferences and atitudes of 1,006 working adults spread over three generations: baby boomers, Generation X, and millennials. In one question, individuals were asked if they would leave their current job to make more money at another Job. The sample data are summarized in the following table.

A recent study on driving behavior examined whether the combination of high driving skills and low safety skills is dangerous. Participants were classified as high or low in driving skill based on responses to a driver-skill inventory, then classified as high or low in safety skill based on responses to a driver-aggression scale. An overall measure of driving risk was obtained by combining several variables such as number of accidents, tickets, tendency to speed, etc. The following data were obtained. Use a 2 x 2 ANOVA with the .05 significance level to evaluate the results. What cutoff score(s) should be used? Driving Skill Low High Safety Skill Low M1=5 M2=4.5 S1=2.7 S2=3.8 N1=6 N2=6 HIgh M3=3 M4=3.5 S3=2.9 S4=2.5 N3=6 N4=6 Group of answer choices +4.35 +3.40 +3.49 +4.26
