Question
Assume that the U.S Open Golf Tournament was played at Congressional Country club, with prizes ranging from $465,000 for first place to $5000. Par for the course is 70. The tournament consists of four rounds played on different days. Suppose the scores for each round of the 32 players who placed in the money (more than $17,000) were given on a web site. The scores for the first round were as follows:
 
74 65 67 73 74 73 71 71 74 73 67
68 75 71 72 71 65 70 71 71 74 73
66 75 70 65 71 72 72 73 71 67  

The scores for the fourth round for these players were as follows:
 

75 69 74 74 72 72 70 71 71 70 73
75 73 72 71 71 72 70 70 71 72 72
74 72 72 68 69 70 69 71 73 74  

Compare the two distributions.

 

Question 10 options:

 
Scores are equal for both the rounds.
 
Scores are lower in the fourth round.
 
Scores are lower in the first round.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given information:

The scores for the first round for the players are provided as:

74 65 67 73 74 73 71 71 74 73 67
68 75 71 72 71 65 70 71 71 74 73
66 75 70 65 71 72 72 73 71 67

Number of scores in the first round, n1=32

The scores for the fourth round for the players are provided as:

75 69 74 74 72 72 70 71 71 70 73
75 73 72 71 71 72 70 70 71 72 72
74 72 72 68 69 70 69 71 73 74

Number of scores in the fourth round, n2=32

It is required to compare the two distributions of scores.

Assumption: The two population variances are equal.
