Question 5 One therapy based on classical conditioning for people with phobias is called systematic desensitization. In this therapy people are taught to relax in the presence of stimuli that used to make them respond with fear. In the population it takes an average of 10 sessions for the treatment to work. The standard deviation in the population is 2.5 sessions. Assume that the number of sessions that it takes for the treatment to work follows a normal distribution. What proportion of people takes less than 14 sessions to treat their phobias? а. b. What proportion of people takes between 10 and 12 sessions to treat their phobias?

Tips given to taxi drivers form a substantial part of their income. They also serve as a loose metric of service quality that can be useful for taxi companies. An analysis of a large dataset shows that the tips given (as a percentage of taxi fares) are normally distributed with mean 21.3% and standard deviation 7.5%. Furthermore, tips received for different trips are independent from each other. taxi driver expects to do 2000 trips next year. For approximately how many of these trips will he receive a tip over 25%?

If the average low temperature of a winter month in Rochester, NY is 18∘18∘ and the standard deviation is 3.4∘3.4∘, then according to Chebyshev's theorem, the percentage of average low temperatures in Rochester, NY between 12.56∘12.56∘ and 23.44∘23.44∘ is at least %.
It is a well-known fact that 40% of college students LOVE taking Mathematics. A certain professor at WCC wanted to test to see if a majority of students at WCC LOVE taking Mathematics. To test this, the professor randomly samples 1000 students and finds that 515 of them LOVE taking Mathematics.At the 0.05 level of significance, does the above sample provide evidence to suggest a majority of students at WCC LOVE taking Mathematics? Step 1: Define the parameter & setup the testStep 2: State the Level of SignificanceStep 3: Find the value of the Test StatisticsStep 4: Find P-Value OR Find Critical ValueStep 5: State Conclusion and why
Historically, Olympic officials have reported testosterone levels in general should be u = 538 ng/dL, with o = 189, with x being normally distributed. Summer Olympic sprinters (n = 8) from the U.S. were tested for testosterone levels the morning after the opening ceremonies. Their sample mean was ng/dL. Do these data indicate that the sprinters had an overall average testosterone level greater than 538? Use a = .05. State a, H,, H1, p-value, rejection, or non-rejection, and be certain to interpret your results.
Exercise 6. Regression Fallacy. Historically, scores on the two midterms had a correlation of 0.48. Suppose that Jeri scored 2.1 standard deviations below the mean on the first midterm. (a) How many standard deviations [above or below?] the mean would you predict for her second midterm?
It is assumed that standardized test scores should be correlated with students' classroom performance. One would expect that students who consistently perform well in the classroom (on tests, quizzes, etc.) would also perform well on a standardized test scored from 0-100 (with 100 indicating high achievement). A teacher decides to examine this hypothesis. At the end of the academic year, she collects the following data for her (admittedly small) class: Standardized test score Overall GPA 56 1.8 1 73 2.6 2 78 2.9 3 83 2.9 4 85 3.0 5 rows x 2 columns What is your best guess for the expected GPA of a student who scored a 88 on the standardized test? number (rtol=0.01, atol=0.0001) Determine a 95% confidence interval for the expected GPA of a student who scored a 76 on the standardized test. Ib number (rtol=0.01, atol=0.0001) ub number (rtol=0.01, atol=0.0001)
“Children whose parents smoke in their presence are more likely to develop asthma than children whose parents do not smoke in their presence.” How many tails should be used when looking up the t test statistic for this study? Question 6 options: one tail two tails Either one tail or two tails - it doesn't matter there is not enough information to tell.
what is the total degrees of freedom for this data?
You determine that the standard deviation for a sample of test scores is 0. This tells you that 1 all the test scores must be 0. 2 all the test scores must be the same value. 3 there is no straight-line association. 4 the mean test score must also be 0. 5 you made a mistake because the standard deviation can never be 0.
JOB x LIFE SATISF, PART 5 of 6. What is the observed F score value for these scores? A researcher is interested in the effect of employment on life satisfaction. He selects a random sample of 12 adults who are employed full time, employed part time, temporarily unemployed, or chronically unemployed. He provided a scale that assessed their life satisfaction on a scale that ranges from 0 (very dissatisfied) to 80 (very satisfied). His results are as follows: What is the observed F score value for these scores?
Professor Rouge wants to see if the color red increases people's attraction. For all participants, she shows them someone in a red shirt, someone in a blue shirt, and someone in a green shirt - and the participant rates each person from 1-10 in terms of their attractiveness. The data that she collected are below. Conduct the appropriate statistic in order to test her hypothesis. Include calculations of the effect size. Report your findings in a brief paragraph (a complete paragraph, like the one from class) and include the two tables that we did in class.
