- Refer to the Campus Crime dataset in the EXCEL file. This data
comes from a study of 20 campuses selected at random from a list of
four-year schools in the continental U.S. Variables include:
- Number of Crimes reported during the most recent reporting
year.
- Number of Police on the school’s police force during the most
recent reporting year.
- Total Enrollment at the school during the most recent reporting
year.
- Total Expenditure ($) on police protection by the school during
the most recent reporting year.
- An indicator of whether the school is public or private (1 =
Private, 0 = Public)
Further information that may be
relevant is that there are 629 public and 1845 private four year
institutions in the continental US, enrolling 6.838 million and
4.162 million, respectively during the most recent reporting
year.
- (For part A, assume that you only have columns A and E in the
dataset). In an appropriate way, report an interval estimate of the
total number of crimes on 4-year college campuses across the U.S.
during the most recent reporting year. Briefly also discuss why
your method is appropriate.
- (For part B, you should use any part of the data you determine
to be relevant). In an appropriate way, report an interval estimate
of the total number of crimes on 4-year college campuses across the
U.S. during the most recent reporting year. Briefly also discuss
why your method is more appropriate than the method you used in
(a).
- Compare and contrast your estimates from (a) and (b). Identify
the differences and explain why the estimates are different.
- (For part D, again use any part of the data you deem relevant).
Estimate the protection cost per police officer for all 4-year
colleges across the nation. Briefly also discuss why your method is
appropriate.
- (For part E, again use any part of the data you deem relevant).
Estimate the protection cost per enrolled student for all 4-year
colleges across the nation. Briefly also discuss why your method is
appropriate.
