Chapter 1.4, Problem 104E

(a)

To determine

To graph: The normal curve.

(a)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Graph: The normal curve can be obtained by using the Minitab software. Follow the steps given below:

Step 1: Enter the data in the Minitab worksheet.

Step 2: Go to Graph and then select the option ‘probability distribution plot.’ Then, select View single. Click on Ok.

Step 3: Enter the value of 150 in mean and 35 in standard deviation, and click on Ok.

The normal curve can be obtained as:

Answer to Problem 104E

Solution: The required table can be shown below:

Lower limit

Upper limit

150±35

115

185

150±(2×35)

80

220

150±(3×35)

45

255

Explanation of Solution

Calculation: The table corresponding to values of scores for the standard deviation deviating from mean can be seen as done below:

Lower limit

Upper limit

μ±σ=150±35

μσ=15035=115

μ+σ=150+35=185

μ±2σ=150±(2×35)

μ2σ=150(2×35)=80

μ+2σ=150+(2×35)=220

μ±3σ=150±(3×35)

μ3σ=150(3×35)=45

μ+3σ=150+(3×35)=255

To determine

To graph: The sketch for the points calculated above.

Explanation of Solution

Graph: The lower limits and upper limits were calculated above. The sketch of these points can be made using the 689599.7 rule.

The diagram can be seen as below:

To determine

To find: The range of reading scores using the 689599.7 rule.

Answer to Problem 104E

Solution: The range of reading scores are (115,185)_, (80,220)_, and (45,225)_.

Explanation of Solution

Calculation: The 689599.7 rule states that in the normal distribution, 68% of data falls under (μ±σ), 95% of the data falls under (μ±2σ), and 99.7% of the data falls under (μ±3σ).

With the given values of mean and standard deviation, the range of reading score value for the students can be obtained by the steps below:

Step 1: For calculating 68% of data,

μ±σ=(μσ,μ+σ)=(15035,150+35)=(115,185)

Step 2: For calculating 95% of data,

μ±2σ=(μ2σ,μ+2σ)=(15070,150+70)=(80,220)

Step 3: For calculating 99.7% of data,

μ±3σ=(μ3σ,μ+3σ)=(150105,150+105)=(45,225)

Business discuss
You have been hired as an intern to run analyses on the data and report the results back to Sarah; the five questions that Sarah needs you to address are given below.   Does there appear to be a positive or negative relationship between price and screen size? Use a scatter plot to examine the relationship. Determine and interpret the correlation coefficient between the two variables. In your interpretation, discuss the direction of the relationship (positive, negative, or zero relationship). Also discuss the strength of the relationship. Estimate the relationship between screen size and price using a simple linear regression model and interpret the estimated coefficients. (In your interpretation, tell the dollar amount by which price will change for each unit of increase in screen size). Include the manufacturer dummy variable (Samsung=1, 0 otherwise) and estimate the relationship between screen size, price and manufacturer dummy as a multiple linear regression model. Interpret the…
