4. A community college wants to analyze the age and GPA of its students. Here is the data: Age 18 40 25 38 44 19 51 28 31 24 GPA 2.9 3.3 2.0 3.9 3.7 2.7 3.9 3.5 1.9 2.9 3.4 Can we say that there is a significant relationship between these variables? (Use a = %3D .05) Type of Test: Null Hypothesis: Alternate Hypothesis: SE: Test Statistic: P-value: Decision: Sentence: 21
A university wanted to see whether there was a significant difference in age between its day staff and evening staff. A random sample of 35 staff members is selected from each group. The data are given below. Test the hypothesis that there is no difference in age between the two groups. Use a =0.05. Day Staff 22 24 24 23 19 19 23 22 18 21 21 18 18 25 29 24 23 22 22 21 20 20 20 27 17 19 18 21 20 23 26 30 25 21 25 Evening Staff 18 23 25 23 21 21 23 24 27 31 24 20 20 23 19 25 24 27 23 20 20 21 25 24 23 28 20 19 23 24 20 27 21 29 30
3. Can SAT scores predict college performance? Let x be a variable that represents SAT score of a computer science major, and let y be a variable that represents a student’s GPA upon graduation. A random sample of n =15 computer science majors provided their SAT scores and GPAs: x 1232 1070 1086 1287 1130 1048 1121 1095 1135 1208 1333 1160 1186 1243 1261 y 3.52 2.91 2.4 3.47 3.47 2.37 2.4 2.24 3.02 3.32 3.59 2.54 3.19 3.71 3.58 The scatter diagram for the SAT score and GPA is given below: (a) Find the sample correlation coefficient r. Truncate to two decimal places. What does the value tell you about the data? (b) Find the equation of the least squares line . Truncate to four decimal places. What does the slope mean? (c) Find the value of the coefficient of determination . Truncate to two decimal places. What does this number mean? (d) What is the predicted GPA if a computer science major got a…

Answer the following questions on the F test statistic. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. a. If s represents the larger of two sample variances, can the F test statistic ever be less than 1? 2 $2 OA. Yes, because the ratio will always be less than 1. $₁ O B. No, because the ratio O C.

A random sample of soil specimens was obtained, and the amount of organic matter (%) in the soil was determined for each specimen, resulting in the accompanying data. 1.16 5.09 0.97 1.59 4.60 0.32 0.55 1.45 0.16 4.47 1.20 3.50 5.02 4.67 5.22 2.69 3.97 3.17 3.03 2.21 0.69 4.47 3.31 1.17 0.77 1.17 1.57 2.62 1.66 2.05 The values of the sample mean, sample standard deviation, and (estimated) standard error of the mean are 2.484, 1.612, and 0.294, respectively. Does this data suggest that the true average percentage of organic matter in such soil is something other than 3%? Carry out a test of the appropriate hypotheses at significance level 0.10. [Note: A normal probability plot of the data shows an acceptable pattern in light of the reasonably large sample size.] State the appropriate hypotheses.
