An average of many different studies of handedness indicate that in a random sample of adults,14percent of men are left-handed and 6 percent of women are left-handed. (Assume the rest are right-handed.) Suppose you have a sample of 250 women and 100 men, in which the numbers of left-handed and right-handed people reflect the average percentages. Make a two-way table that shows the distribution you would find.

The price of a share of stock divided by the company's estimated future earnings per share is called the P/E ratio. High P/E ratios usually indicate "growth" stocks, or maybe stocks that are simply overpriced. Low P/E ratios indicate "value" stocks or bargain stocks. A random sample of 51 of the largest companies in the United States gave the following P/E ratios†. 11 35 19 13 15 21 40 18 60 72 9 20 29 53 16 26 21 14 21 27 10 12 47 14 33 14 18 17 20 19 13 25 23 27 5 16 8 49 44 20 27 8 19 12 31 67 51 26 19 18 32 (a) Use a calculator with mean and sample standard deviation keys to find the sample mean x and sample standard deviation s.

Suppose you are interested in knowing the proportion of Texas A&M students who have their own subscription to Netflix. Everyone in a class of 77 students takes a random sample of 100 Texas A&M students and asks them if they have their own Netflix subscription. Each person calculates the proportion of their sample with a subscription and we make a histogram of the 77 proportions. What kind of distribution would be displayed in that histogram? a. Population Distribution b. Sampling Distribution c. Data Distribution d. Parent Distribution e. More than one of the above
Suppose that, at the end of last semester, Marie gave her introductory statistics class a final exam. After grading these exams, she created a histogram illustrating the distribution of exam scores for the 70 students in the class. Each of the bars in this histogram includes only the left endpoint of the interval, except for the bar representing scores between 90 and 100 points, which also includes the right endpoint. What percentage of students scored between 60 and 80 points on the exam? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent. Number of students who scored at least 80 points = students Percentage of students who scored between 60 and 80 points = %
The midterm and final exam grades for a statistics course are provided in the data set below. Jaymes, a student in the class, scored 86 on both exams. Treat the given data sets as samples. Midterm: 80, 78, 85, 82, 79, 79, 78, 86, 80, 84, 78, 84, 80, 84, 81, 78, 81, 82, 78, 84 Final: 81, 88, 68, 69, 69 81, 82, 86, 76, 71, 72, 68, 77, 86, 68, 83, 84, 71, 81, 87 z-score for midterm: 1.857 z-score for final: 1.181 Based on the z-scores calculated above, which of Jaymes's grades is more unusual, the midterm grade or the final exam grade? Select the correct answer below: A. The absolute value of the z-score for the final exam grade is greater than for the midterm grade, so the final exam grade is more unusual. B. The absolute value of the z-score for the midterm exam grade is less than for the final grade, so the midterm grade is more unusual. C. The absolute value of the z-score for the midterm exam grade is greater than for the final grade, so the midterm grade is more…

The college physical education department offered an advanced first aid course last summer. The scores on the comprehensive final exam were normally distributed, and the z-scores for some of the students are shown below. Robert 1.24 Juan 1.66 Haley −1.84 Joel 0.00 Jan −0.84 Linda 1.68 Which of these students scored above the mean? (Select all that apply.) Which of these students scored on the mean? (Select all that apply.) Which of these students scored below the mean? (Select all that apply.) If the mean score was μ = 140 with standard deviation σ = 15, what was the final exam score for each student?

According to a gallup survey of boys 77% of boys had played computer games in the past week compared to 65% of girls. You take and SRS of 104 boys and 120 girls How would you describe each distribution?
Here is an example from John and Jenn. When we return exams in our classes, we find it beneficial to share with students information on the distribution of scores. We provide this information so that students will have an idea of how they scored on the exam in comparison to their peers. However, deciding which descriptive information to provide to the class is not always an easy decision. These are modified grades from one of Jenn’s statistics classes. For this data set, the mean is 77, the mode is 92, and the median is 86. If you were the professor of the class, do you think sharing the mean scores on the exam with the class is a representative score of the data set? Why or why not? 9 or 11. The researchers predicted that the more a mother weighed during pregnancy, the higher the fat mass would be in the child. Such findings would support the developmental over nutrition hypothesis, which states that overeating during key developmental times has an influence on the offspring. The…

A food truck owner recorded the temperature at noon, in degrees Fahrenheit, and the number of bowls of soup sold during the lunch hour for a random sample of 5 days. The data are shown in the following table. Temperature (degrees Fahrenheit) 57 75 43 68 67 Number sold 17 12 20 8 13 The mean temperature of the sample is 62 degrees Fahrenheit, and the mean number sold is 14.
