The table lists the number of students from three different high schools participating in the mathematics and physics sections of a science fair High School 1 High School 2 High School 3 Mathematics 7 7 18 Physics 37 17 21

Given the following results.

a) State the alternative hypothesis statement. (1 mark)

b) State the degrees of freedom. (1 mark)

c) Find the value of A, B, and C. d) Using the p-value method, at α = 0.05, test the claim that the section of participation and the high school where the students were from are independent.

Solutions

Expert Solution

(a) The section of participation and the high school where the students were from are dependent

(b) 2

(c)

		High School 1	High School 2	High School 3	Total
Mathematics	Observed	7	7	18	32
	Expected	13.16	7.18	11.66	32.00
	O - E	-6.16	-0.18	6.34	0.00
	(O - E)² / E	2.88	0.00	3.44	6.33
Physics	Observed	37	17	21	75
	Expected	30.84	16.82	27.34	75.00
	O - E	6.16	0.18	-6.34	0.00
	(O - E)² / E	1.23	0.00	1.47	2.70
Total	Observed	44	24	39	107
	Expected	44.00	24.00	39.00	107.00
	O - E	0.00	0.00	0.00	0.00
	(O - E)² / E	4.11	0.01	4.91	9.03

		9.03	chi-square
		2	df
		.0109	p-value

(d) The p-value is 0.0109.

Since the p-value (0.0109) is less than the significance level (0.05), we can reject the null hypothesis.

Therefore, we can conclude that the section of participation and the high school where the students were from are dependent.

In an effort to compare student grades in 4 different high schools, random samples of students from 4 local high schools were selected. Their first year average college grades were computed and recorded. Can we conclude that there are differences in the mean grades of these students from those 4 high schools? (20 points) Apply either the Fischer-LSD or Tukey-Omega method to determine specifically whether schools A and C have a significant difference in population means. Perform the appropriate F-max...

You want to see if students from different types of schools are equally (or unequally) happy. You randomly sample groups of 10 students from three different sizes of school and have them fill out a standardized scale measuring satisfaction with their education. This scale has a potential range from 0-50 (larger scores = greater satisfaction). Small Schools Rank Medium Schools Rank Large Schools Rank 17 5.5 13 2 35 29 21 11 20 9 26 22 14 3 30...
