A survey was conducted among the engineering students in a university. The survey is conducted to find the relationship between the test preparation time and their test achievement. The 50 respondents were asked 2 questions: a) How much time did you spend to prepare for the exam? and b) What is your test achievement? Based on the above statement, determine the type of statistics that is suitable for the study and briefly explain your answer.
Name 3) The Tire Rack, an online distributor of tires and wheels, conducts extensive testing to provide customers with products that are right for their vehicle, driving style, and driving conditions. In addition, the Tire Rack maintains an independent customer survey to help drivers help each other by sharing their long-term tire experiences (The Tire Rack website, August 1, 2016). The following data shows survey results (one to 10 scale with 10 being the highest rating) for 18 high performance all season tires. The variable tread wear rates quickness of wear based on drivers expectations, the variability dry traction rates the grip of a tire on a dry road, the variable steering rates the tires steering responsiveness, and the variable buy again rates the driver's desire to purchase the same tire again.

Students at a major university in Southern California are complaining about a serious housing crunch. Many of the university's students, they complain, have to commute too far to school because there is not enough housing near campus. The university officials' response is to perform a study. The study, reported in the school newspaper, contains the following histogram summarizing the commute distances for a sample of 36 students at the university: Frequency 20 18 15- 10+ 9. 6. Aa 0. 4 12 16 Commute distance (in miles) Based on this histogram, estimate the standard deviation of the sample of 36 distances. Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places, and round your answer to at least one decimal place. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)

This obstetrician also wanted to determine the impact that three experimental diets had on the birth weights of pregnant mothers. She was also interested if age had an impact on birth weights. She randomly selected 27 pregnant mothers in the first trimester of whom 9 were 20 to 29 years old, 9 were 30 to 39 years old, and 9 were 40 or older. For each age group, she randomly assigned the mothers to one of three diets. After delivery, she measured the birth weight (in grams) of the babies and obtained the data a) What is the blocking variable?

2. The following exercises are based on a study by Scholer et el. (1997). This was a nested case-control study obtained from a cohort of children age 0 through 4 years in Tennessee between January 1, 1991 and December 31, 1995. Case patients consist of all cohort members who suffered injury deaths. Control patients were frequency matched to case patients by birth year. The variables are; .

A statistics content developer at Aplia wanted to know whether study skills are related to memory quality. She invited student volunteers to perform an online memory task. The students saw a list of 60 words and were then asked to recognize a list of 10 words that were on the original list. Students were also asked to provide their GPAs. Consider the following data set, which was collected from student volunteers in 2009. The table gives the frequency for five intervals of scores on the number of correctly identified words. Use the dropdown menus to complete the table by filling in the missing values for the proportions and percentages. Score Interval f Proportion Percentage 9–10 29 0.19 19% 7–8 53 5–6 50 3–4 22 0.14 14% 1–2 1 0.01 1%
A certain virus affects 0.7% of the population. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 87% of the time if the person has the virus (true positive) and 14% of the time if the person does not have the virus (false positive). Fill out the remainder of the following table and use it to answer the two questions below based on a total sample of 100,000 people. Virus No Virus TotalPositive Test Negative Test Total 100,000a) Find the probability that a person has the virus given that they have tested positive. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a percent and do not include a percent sign. % b) Find the probability that a person does not have the virus given that they test negative. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a percent and do not include a percent sign. %
