NOTE: the simple method of calculating quartiles by hand (taught in class) MUST be used for this quiz. You may use Kaddstat to check your answer. However, if the answer from your hand calculation and Kaddstat are not the same, you MUST enter your hand calculation answer. DO NOT use any complex algorithms built into calculators, or the Excel function 'quartile' Some questions list data. Type the data into Excel and use the Data Analysis or Kaddstat Boxplot for working....

People in the aerospace industry conducted a pilot study to determine the relationship between the weight and cost of a major object being sent into space. The results of the pilot study are in data file SP13.53, contained in a folder under the CML quizzes tab. Determine the number of observations needed to be 89% confident that the estimate of the average weight is within 0.3 units of the overall mean weight. Note: Assume that the pilot study standard deviation...
a. Time to finish a quiz in minutes follows a normal distribution with mean 6 and standard deviation .7. A student took 4.8 minutes. What is this student’s z-score? b. Time to finish a quiz in minutes follows a normal distribution with mean 6 and standard deviation .7. What proportion of students complete the quiz in less than 5.2 minutes? Use the normalcdf command on your calculator with 6 as the mean, .7 as the standard deviation, a very large negative...
continuation to previous question PROJECT 3 INSTRUCTIONS Based on Brase & Brase : sections 6.1-6.3 Note that you must do this Visit the NASDAQ historical prices weblink. First, set the date range to be for exactly 1 year ending on that says "Download Data" to save the file project on your to your computer This project will only use the Close values. Assume that the closing prices of the stock form a normally distributed data set. This means that you...
For this question, you are required to find the standard deviation for a set of data. The answer alone will not achieve full marks. There are many tools available to calculate the standard deviation. Here you are required to use several of the tools and show your working out to earn the marks. The data is the test results of 21 students who sat a mathematics quiz worth 100 marks. Results: 60, 47, 17, 43, 30, 90, 77, 61, 54,...
b) Calculate the standard deviation of the ages for the First Six U.S. Presidents by hand by answering the following questions and filling in the table. We will want our final answer to be correct to 3 decimal places. So, to make sure we don't get any rounding error, we will do all calculations to 6 decimal places until the final answer. (1point each) Round each answer to 6 decimal places. (X) of the First Six Presidents? What is the...
Question 8: (12 marks) For this question you are required to find the standard deviation for a set of data. The answer alone will not achieve full marks. There are many tools available to calculate the standard deviation. Here you are required to use several of the tools and show your working out to earn the marks. The data is the test results of 21 students who sat a mathematics quiz worth 100 marks. Results: 60, 47, 17, 43, 30,...
Use your completed table from part 4b to find the probability that a student correctly answers at least one question correctly on the pop quiz. Show your calculations for the answer. Number Correct 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Probability 0.1001 0.2670 0.3114 0.2076 0.0865 0.0231 0.0038 0.0004 0.0000 Calculate the mean and standard deviation of this probability distribution. Show your work using the binomial mean and standard deviation formulas and provide your answers with units (rounded...
a) John is doing a math quiz, which has 10 questions where each question has four outcomes (A, B, C & D) but only one is correct. After the quiz, John told you he didn't study for the test at all and guessed all answers. i) If John guessed each and every item in the test, describe the probability distribution for the number of correct guesses. Present the probability distribution in the form of a table using 4 decimal ppints...
