Consider a multiple-choice examination with 50 questions. Each question has four possible answers. Assume that a student who has done the homework and attended lectures has a 75% chance of answering any question correctly. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)

(a)

A student must answer 45 or more questions correctly to obtain a grade of A. What percentage of the students who have done their homework and attended lectures will obtain a grade of A on this multiple-choice examination? Use the normal approximation of the binomial distribution to answer this question.

%

(b)

A student who answers 34 to 39 questions correctly will receive a grade of C. What percentage of students who have done their homework and attended lectures will obtain a grade of C on this multiple-choice examination? Use the normal approximation of the binomial distribution to answer this question.

%

(c)

A student must answer 28 or more questions correctly to pass the examination. What percentage of the students who have done their homework and attended lectures will pass the examination? Use the normal approximation of the binomial distribution to answer this question.

%

(d)

Assume that a student has not attended class and has not done the homework for the course. Furthermore, assume that the student will simply guess at the answer to each question. What is the probability that this student will answer 28 or more questions correctly and pass the examination? Use the normal approximation of the binomial distribution to answer this question.

  1. There are multiple sections of 3 classes that have to be offered. Class A has an average enrollment of 120 per term. Class B has an average of 100 students per term and Class C has an average enrollment of 85 students per term. The rules for opening and cancelling sections are as follows:
  1. Any section of this class must have at least 15 students to run. Any less than this and the section is cancelled.
  2. Each section has a maximum enrollment of 45 students.
  3. A new section will open up when the previous section (s) have an average enrollment of 40.
  4. A new section will open up to accommodate department regulations on staffing.

For each class run a simulation using your chosen distribution and determine the following:

  1. Given that anytime enrollment in a class reaches over 175 students, there will be 5 sections of class, what is the probability of this happening with each class?

Class A =

Class B =

Class C =

ii)    Given that anytime enrollment in a class reaches 135 students to 180 students, there will be 4 sections of class, what is the probability of this happening with each class?

Class A =

  1. Given that anytime enrollment in a class reaches 95 students to 120 students, there will be 3 sections of class, what is the probability of this happening with each class?

Class A =

Class B =

Class C =

  1. If a third section of Class C opens when enrollment goes above 80, and it gets cancelled when enrollment is below 95, How often does the third section get cancelled? (Enrollment is between 80 and 95)
  1. Based upon the probabilities you found above, how many sections of each class do you offer? 2, 3, 4 or 5?

Class A =

Class B =

Class C =

Using the number of sections, you found above create a schedule that maximizes the quality of teaching these classes. Full Time profs must teach 3-4 sections. Part time profs must teach 1-2 sections.

  1. What is the minimum number of sections (total) that need to be offered?
  1. What is the maximum number of sections (total) you can offer?

Which of the following statements is correct regarding the null and alternative hypothesis?

a) the alternative hypothesis is the one that we want to reject

b) the null hypothesis should be identified as the one without an equality relationship

c) one should dichotomize(divide in two) the possible values of the parameter on the basis of the decision that must be made, then identify the null and alternative hypotheses accordingly

d) all of the above

Historically, 20% of graduates of the engineering school at a major university have been women. In a recent, randomly selected graduating class of 210 students, 58 were females. Does the sample data present convincing evidence that the proportion of female graduates from the engineering school has shifted (changed)? Use α = 0.05.

***I ALREADY HAVE A-E ANSWERED***
A.State the null and alternative hypotheses to be tested and indicate whether the test is left-tailed, right-tailed or two-tailed.

B. List the conditions that should be met in order to proceed with the hypothesis test and explain why (or show how) they are met.

C.Compute the test statistic and p-value for the hypothesis test and sketch the distribution of the test statistic, if the null hypothesis is true. Identify - label and shade - the region(s) represented by the p-value. Show your calculation(s).

D.Make a statistical decision about the null hypothesis (i.e. fail to reject H0 or reject H0), using the p-value approach. Justify your answer.

E.Write your conclusion in the context of the problem.

***I NEED F AND G ANSWERED***

F.Suppose we were to instead use a confidence interval to test if the proportion of female graduates from the engineering school differs from 20%.

-What would be the confidence level?

-Construct the confidence interval and explain how it supports your decision/conclusion made in (d) and (e). Show your calculation(s).

G.Determine the critical value(s) for this hypothesis test and explain how you would use it to come to the same decision/conclusion.

Dear Students:

I have recently been employed by HMS Nautical Inc to work on their submarine program. I have only some basic data to work with and no idea how to use it to get the information I need.

Here is what I know. First, I know that our Subs have a maximum running depth of 500 feet below sea level. I also know that a sub functioning at acceptable levels should be able to reach maximum depth in 10 minutes. Finally I know that I need to multiply the decent by a factor of 5 to achieve an accurate model. I also have a chart that lists times and depths for the sub.

-375

-495

-500

-375

Finally, I know that the sub follows a quadratic model when it descends and then ascends.

I have been told that you will be able to take this data and make sense of it. I would like a model for the path of the submarine as it descends to its running depth and then returns to the surface. I want to be able to use this model to predict where the sub will be at any time during its decent/ascent cycle. I would also like to know after how many minutes I should expect the sub to breech the surface of the water again.

Please explain clearly how you came up with the model so that I can repeat the process for new additions to our fleet of submarines. I appreciate any help you can give me in this matter. I would like your response returned to me either as a business letter or a narrated PowerPoint presentation.

Sincerely,

Nemo Hook

HMS Nautical Inc.

f. Calculate and interpret the eta-squared measure of effect size (if it is a between-subjects designs) or the partial eta-squared measure of effect size (if it is a within-subjects design).

Case 1: A teacher was curious about if his students’ test scores would be affected by how they learn about important science experiments. To look into the situation, he randomly assigned students to 1of 3 groups: students in the first group read about an experiment, students in the second group watched a video, and students in the third group actually conducted the experiment. At the end, all students were given a test about the experiment.

A psychologist is planning a study to test whether people are more likely to call events "natural" that are otherwise frequently attributed to "supernatural forces" if they have seen a particular film critical of "superstitions." Discuss the three things the psychologist should consider in order to maximize power for the planned study. Be specific, i.e., describe the statistical principles and explain how each works to increase power
