Consider the following two sets of scores
X: 80, 70, 55, 63, 72
Y: 50, 52, 59, 60
Which of these sets of scores was more likely drawn from a population with the greater variance and why?
Homework Answers
since sample variance is unbaised estimator of population variance and it is higher for data set X:
data set X is more likely drawn from a population with the greater variance

Problem 4: Variables that may affect Grades The data set contains a random sample of STAT 250 Final Exam Scores out of 80 points. For each individual sampled, the time (in hours per week) that the student spent participating in a GMU club or sport and working for pay outside of GMU was recorded. Values of 0 indicate the students either does not participate in a club or sport or does not work a job for pay. The goal of...
