(6 pts) The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) is a test required for admission into many masters of business administration (MBA) programs. Suppose a random sample of 8 students took the test, and their scores are given below.
699, 560, 414, 570, 521, 663, 727, 413
Point estimate of the population mean is
To find CI we first need to calculate standard deviation
Create the following table.
data | data-mean | (data - mean)2 |
699 | 128.125 | 16416.015625 |
560 | -10.875 | 118.265625 |
414 | -156.875 | 24609.765625 |
570 | -0.875 | 0.765625 |
521 | -49.875 | 2487.515625 |
663 | 92.125 | 8487.015625 |
727 | 156.125 | 24375.015625 |
413 | -157.875 | 24924.515625 |
Find the sum of numbers in the last column to get.
So
Now let us assume that distribution is normal
So t table value for 7 df is 2.365
So Margin of Error is
Hence CI is
From CI we find that the population test score lies between 470.229 to 671.521
Now here E=25 and s=120.3678
Using this values we find

The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) is a standardized exam used by many universities as part of the assessment for admission to graduate study In business. The average GMAT score is 547 (Magoosh website, January 5, 2015). Assume that GMAT scores are bell-shaped with a standard deviation of 100. Make sure to use the empirical rule to answer these questions. a. What percentage of GMAT scores are 647 or higher? b. What percentage of GMAT scores are 747 or higher (to 1...
The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) is taken by individuals interested in pursuing graduate management education. GMAT scores are used as part of the admissions process for more than 6100 graduate management programs worldwide. The mean sore for all test-takers is 550 with a standard deviation of 120 A researcher in the Philippines is concerned about the performance of undergraduates in the Philippines on the GMAT. She believes that the mean scores for this year's college seniors in the Philippines...
Suppose that Rachel studied for the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) using a well-known preparation class and was thrilled to receive a total score of 770. Her friend Eric, however, thinks she would have scored just as well without the class. To test the efficacy of the class, they obtain a small but random sample of 19 test results from other students using the same class. This sample's average is 568.56 with a standard deviation of 116.72. In comparison, the...
Question 6 1 pts A business student is preparing for the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) so he can get into a good graduate business school. He knows that any money he spends on a tutor will be worthwhile if he can improve his scores. He's heard that there is a great tutor in his local community but has no idea who she is. Marketing does not occur in this situation because two or more parties have unsatisfied needs. there...
Directions: Please show your work. Submitting answers only will not earn you full credit for a given problem. Showing work includes, but is not limited to: formulas, graphs, and calculations. If you use the web calculator, StatCrunch, Minitab, Excel, Table V, Graphing Calculator, etc…, you must include your output with your answer (I suggest using the Snipping Tool in Windows). Use the prescribed method of test (Classical or P-value) for each question. Follow all the steps used in hypothesis testing...
2. The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is a test required for admission to many U.S. graduate schools. Students' scores on the quantitative portion of the GRE follow a normal distribution with standard deviation 8.8. (Source: http://www.ets.org/.) Suppose a random sample of 10 students took the test, and their scores are given below: 152, 126, 146, 149, 152, 164, 139, 134, 145, 136. Test the claim that the mean verbal reasoning score is different from 150 using the P-value approach at...
A large number of people worldwide take the GMAT exam each year as they apply for MBA programs. Administrators of the test suggest that from past experience the distribution of GMAT exam scores is closely approximated by a normal distribution with mean 1F525 and standard deviation ơ-100 (i)Assuming the population distribution of GMAT exam scores is normal, what is the probability that a person randomly drawn from those taking the test would have a test score between 510 and 550?...

PLEASE TYPE DO NOT WRITE THANK YOU! The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is a test required for admission to many US graduate schools. Students’ scores on the quantitative portion of the GRE follow a normal distribution with a mean of 150 and a standard deviation of 8.8. In addition to other qualifications, a score of at least 152 is required for admission to a particular graduate school. a) Determine the 80thpercentile of GRE scores b) Determine the GRE scores that...
