Question

Test scores of students in one large Statistics class are normally distributed with a mean of 80 and a 1. If one student from the class is randomly selected, what is the probability that his/her test score is below 76 using empirical rule? 2. If one student from the class is randomly selected, what is the probability that his/her test score is above 86 using the z-table? If one student from the class is randomly selected, what is the probability that his/her test score is either below 70 or above 86 using the z-table? 4. If 40 students are randomly selected from the class, what is the probability that their average test scores is below 78? A professor is interested in knowing if the score on the first test can be used to predict score on the final exam in an elementary statistics course. He randomly selected 8 students and got the following data: 1. Compute and interpret the correlation coefficient between the two variables. 2. Using the equation of the regression line, what will be the predicted final exam score of a student whose first test score is 120? In a study to determine if gender and level of physical activity are related, researchers obtained the following data 1. What percent of the individuals in the study are females who engage in high physical activity? 2. Calculate and interpret the value of the chi-squared test statistic. What is the conclusion of the test?

Explanation / Answer

Problem-E I am not doing because standard deviation value is not in the image

Problem-F

From following results correlation=-0.1651

Regression line Y=177.0037-0.1414*X

So predicted score=177.0037-0.1414*120 =160.0357

S.No.

Part-1-P(Female and High)=38/(20+92+41+38)=0.1990

Part-2-From following results chi-square test statistic =24.69591 with p-value=6.71E-07

As p-value is less than 0.001 we conclude that physical activity depends on gender
