Each year about 1500 students take the introductory statistics course at a large university. This year scores on the final exam are distributed with a median of 74 points, a mean of 70 points, and a standard deviation of 10 points. There are no students who scored above 100 (the maximum score attainable on the final) but a few students scored below 20 points. a.Is the distribution of scores on this final exam symmetric, right skewed, or left skewed? b.Would you expect most students to have scored above or below 70 points? c.What is the probability that the average score for a random sample of 40 students is above 75? (please round to four decimal places) Additionally, can this question be answered using excel or statcrunch?

A study of identity theft looked at how well consumers protect themselves from this increasingly prevalent crime. The behaviors of 63 college students were compared with the behaviors of 58 non students. One of the questions was "When asked to create a password, I have used either my mother's maiden name, or my pet's name, or my birth date, or the last four digits of my social security number, or a series of consecutive numbers." For the students, 24 agreed with this statement while 29 of the non students agreed.

(a) Display the data in a two-way table.

Summarize the results.

We can conclude at the 5% level that students and nonstudents differ in the response to this question.We cannot conclude at the 5% level that students and nonstudents differ in the response to this question.    


(b) Reanalyze the data using the methods for comparing two proportions that we studied in the previous chapter. Compare the results and verify that the chi-square statistic is the square of the z statistic. (Test students who agreed minus nonstudents who agreed. Round your z to two decimal places and round your P-value to four decimal places.)

(c) The students in this study were junior and senior college students from two sections of a course in Internet marketing at a large northeastern university. The nonstudents were a group of individuals who were recruited to attend commercial focus groups on the West Coast conducted by a lifestyle marketing organization. Discuss how the method of selecting the subjects in this study relates to the conclusions that can be drawn from it.

In 2010, the Maricopa Community College District's enrollment data showed the following breakdown of students by ethnicity: 54.9% White; 21.1% Hispanic; 7.9% Black; 4.5% Asian/Pacific Islander; 2.9% Native American; 8.8% Other. Information was collected from a random sample 0f 300 students in 2017 to determine whether or not the data has changed significantly. The sample data is given in the table below. At the α=0.10α=0.10 level of significance, test the claim that the ethnic breakdown of students at MCCCD has not changed significantly since 2010.

Which would be correct hypotheses for this test?

  • H0:μ1=μ2H0:μ1=μ2; H1:μ1≠μ2H1:μ1≠μ2
  • H0:H0:The breakdown of students by ethnicity has not changed significantly since 2010 (i.e. the given distribution still fits); H1:H1:The breakdown of students by ethnicity has changed significantly since 2010 (i.e. the given distribution no longer fits)
  • H0:p1=p2H0:p1=p2; H1:p1≠p2H1:p1≠p2
  • H0:H0:The breakdown of students by ethnicity has changed significantly since 2010 (i.e. the given distribution no longer fits); H1:H1:The breakdwon of students by ethnicity has not changed significantly since 2010 (i.e. the given distribution still fits)



Ethnicity of students in sample:

Ethnicity Count
White 141
Hispanic 76
Black 26
Asian/Pacific Islander 8
Native American 15
Other 34



Test Statistic:



Give the P-value:



Which is the correct result:

  • Reject the Null Hypothesis
  • Do not Reject the Null Hypothesis



Which would be the appropriate conclusion?

  • There is enough evidence to suggest that the breakdown of students by ethnicity has changed significantly since 2010.
  • There is not enough evidence to suggest that the breakdown of students by ethnicity has changed significantly since 2010.

Directions:

Using a vector of integers that you define.

Write a C++ program to run a menu driven program with the following choices:

1) Display the ages
2) Add an age
3) Display the average age
4) Display the youngest age
5) Display the number of students who can vote
6) Remove all students less than a given age
7) Quit

Make sure your program conforms to the following requirements:

1. Write a function called getValidAge that allows a user to enter in an integer and loops until a valid number that is >= 0 and < 120 is entered. It returns the valid age.

2. Write a function called displayAges that takes in a vector of integers as a parameter and displays the ages in the format in the sample run below.

3. Write a function called AddAge that takes in a vector of integers by reference as a parameter, asks the user to input a valid age, and adds it to the vector of integers .

4. Write a function called getAverageAge that takes in a vector of integers as a parameter, computes, and returns the average age.

5. Write a function called getYoungestAge that takes in a vector of integers as a parameter, computes, and returns the youngest age.

6. Write a function called getNumStudentsVote that takes in a vector of integers as a parameter, computes, and returns the number of ages in the vector that are >= 18. (15 points).

7. Write a function called RemoveStudentsLessThanSelectedAge that takes in a vector of integers as a parameter, asks the user for an age, creates a new vector of integers that only contains the ages in the parameter vector which are >= the age selected by the user and returns the new vector.

8. Add comments wherever necessary.

NOTE: You must take care of the case when the vector is empty and an operation is being performed on it. In such cases the program should display a 0 for the given result.

General Requirements:

1. Please make sure that you're conforming to specifications (program name, print statements, expected inputs and outputs etc.). Not doing so will result in a loss of points. This is especially important for prompts.

2. If we have listed a specification and allocated point for it, you will lose points if that particular item is missing from your code, even if it is trivial.

3. No global variables (variables outside of main() ) unless they are constants.

4. All input and output must be done with streams, using the library iostream

5. You may only use the iostream, iomanip, and vector libraries. Including unnecessary libraries will result in a loss of points.

6. NO C style printing is permitted. (Aka, don't use printf). Use cout if you need to print to the screen.

7. When you write source code, it should be readable and well-documented (comments).

Current through a heated metal wire

A 39.5 m long copper wire at a temperature of 22.9 oC has a radius of 0.275 mm. If a potential difference of 11.8 V is applied across the length of the wire, determine the current in the wire.

If the wire is heated to 90.6 oC and the 11.8 V potential difference is maintained, what is the resulting current in the wire?
