Question

*ANSWER ONLY IF YOU KNOW RSTUDIO*

Now You Try!

Use the code in the file Duplex.R to conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the sale prices of duplexes are normally distributed.

Load the code into RStudio and run through it. You will not need to modify the code to answer the questions below.

Answer the following questions:

a.How many observations are in the data set Duplex?

b. How many observations do we EXPECT in the region between the mean and 0.75 standard deviations above the mean for the sale prices in the Duplex data set? Round your answer to one decimal place.

c.How many observations do we OBSERVE in the region between the mean and 0.75 standard deviations above the mean for the sale prices in the Duplex data set?

d. What is the test statistic? Round your answer to two decimal places.

e.What is the p-value? Round your answer to four decimal places.

Explanation / Answer

Solutiona

a.How many observations are in the data set Duplex?

dim(duplex)

109 observations

SolutionB;

s=sd(Duplex$SalePrice)
s=39498.97
m=mean(Duplex$SalePrice)
m=139808.9

mean-0.75(stddev)=139808.9-0.75(39498.97)=110184.7

mean+0.75(stddev)=139808.9+0.75(39498.97)=169433.1

given distr is normal distribution with mean and sd=139808 And9,39498.97

using TI 83 calc find prob:

normalcdf(110184.7,169433.1,139808.9,39498.97)

=0.5467

total observations=109

Expected=np=109*0.5467=

=59.59

=60

So 60 observations

we EXPECT in the region between the mean and 0.75 standard deviations above the mean for the sale prices in the Duplex data set

ANSWER:60

Solutionc:

OBSERVE<-sum( 110184.7 < Duplex$SalePrice & Duplex$SalePrice < 169433.1 )

OBSERVE

ANSWER:68

68 observations we OBSERVE in the region between the mean and 0.75 standard deviations above the mean for the sale prices in the Duplex data set.

Solutiond:

chi sq=11.86

Solutione:

p=0.0367
