Assignment #7: One-sample Chi-Square

Directions: Use the Chi-Square option in the Nonparametric Tests menu to answer the questions based on the following scenario. (Assume a level of significance of .05 and use information from the scenario to determine the expected frequencies for each category)

During the analysis of the district data, it was determined that one high school had substantially higher Graduate Exit Test scores than the state average and the averages of high schools in the surrounding districts. To better understand possible reasons for this difference, the superintendent conducted several analyses. One analysis examined the population of students who completed the exam. Specifically, the superintendent wanted to know if the distribution of special education, regular education, and gifted/talented test takers from the local high school differed from the statewide distribution. The obtained data are provided below.

Special Education*

Regular Education

Gifted/Talented

Number of students from the local high school who took the Graduate Exit

17

90

19

Percent of test taking students statewide who took the Graduate Exit

7%

73%

20%

*For purposes of testing, special education includes any student who received accommodations during the test.

  1. If the student distribution for the local high school did not differ from the state, what would be the expected percentage of students in each category?

  2. What were the actual percentages of local high school students in each category? (Report final answer to two decimal places)

  3. State an appropriate null hypothesis for this analysis.

  4. What is the value of the chi-square statistic?

  5. What are the reported degrees of freedom?

  6. What is the reported level of significance?

  7. Based on the results of the one-sample chi-square test, was the population of test taking students at the local high school statistically significantly different from the statewide population?

  8. Present the results as they might appear in an article. This must include a table and narrative statement that reports and interprets the results of the analysis.

    Note: The table must be created using your word processing program. Tables that are copied and pasted from SPSS are not acceptable.

Lab 1: Using the Scientific Method Worksheet

At a local town meeting, one of your neighbors complains that a nearby residence is killing his flowers because of the chemicals he uses to wash his cars. He claims that the soap runs into a stream that flows very close to his flower beds. As an inquiring student of science, you wonder whether soap can truly affect flower growth.

Based on the observation given to you, use the following questions to explain how you would set up your experiment and analyze your results.

1.       State your hypothesis. Remember that a hypothesis must be specific and testable. For example, stating that detergents are bad is not a good hypothesis (“Bad” is a generic term, it would be better to use a metric that is measurable).

2.       Explain how you would set up your control and treatment groups. What would be the same between the groups and what would be different? What species would you use for each group and how many plants total would you use?

3.       How would you collect your data for your experiment? What tools and units of measurement would you use? How often would you collect data and would you use the same methodology for both your treatment and control groups? Be specific in your answers.

In every experiment, there are some unintentional differences between the control and treatment groups. These are called sources of error. If these sources of error can be corrected we call them avoidable sources of error. An example of an avoidable source of error may be the amount of water provided to the plant. We can avoid this error by watering the plants in each group, the same amount at the same time of the day.

4. List some possible sources of avoidable and unavoidable error in your fertilizer experiment that were provided to you as examples.

5..       Explain the difference between a theory and a hypothesis.

6.       Explain the difference between the ‘everyday’ use of the word theory and the definition of a scientific theory.

7.       Why is it important to educate people on the true definition of “theory”?

Instructions

George Bluth really, really wants to control the market for new homes in Orange County, California. The Bluth Company (“TBC””) currently controls about 60% of the market in Orange County, while TBC’s chief competitor, Stan Sitwell, controls about 25%, and various other companies control the remaining 15%. George approaches Sitwell to see if they can make a deal under the table to stop competing and join forces to corner the market, but Sitwell refuses. After being rebuffed by Sitwell, George decides to try and buy out Sitwell’s company. He is unable to raise enough cash to do so, however. Finally, he tries to corner the market all by himself by cutting his prices so low that his competitors could not possibly hope to compete. In fact, he cuts the prices for his new houses so low that he’s losing money on each one. Hopefully his competitors will go out of business soon and he can raise his prices back up once they do.

Please answer the following questions:

If Stan Sitwell had been open to George’s suggestion that they join forces, discuss two possible ways they could have acted that would be blatant violations of Section 1 of the Sherman Act.

If TBC had been able to raise the money to purchase Sitwell, what type of merger would it have been? Would the government have allowed the merger to proceed? (hint: discuss Section 7 of the Clayton Act).

Do George’s actions create an illegal monopoly under Section 2 of the Sherman Act? (hint: analyze ALL of the elements necessary to have an illegal monopoly).

in java please: You have been given the job of creating a new order processing system...

in java please:

  1. You have been given the job of creating a new order processing system for the Yummy Fruit CompanyTM. The system reads pricing information for the various delicious varieties of fruit stocked by YFC, and then processes invoices from customers, determining the total amount for each invoice based on the type and quantity of fruit for each line item in the invoice. The program input starts with the pricing information. Each fruit price (single quantity) is specified on a single line, with the fruit name followed by the price. You can assume that each fruit name is a single word consisting of alphabetic characters (A–Z and a–z). You can also assume that prices will have exactly two decimal places after the decimal point. Fruit names and prices are separated by a single space character. The list of fruit prices is terminated by a single line consisting of the text END_PRICES. After the fruit prices, there will be one or more invoices. Each invoice consists of a series of line items. A line item is a fruit name followed by an integer quantity, with the fruit name and quantity separated by a single space. You can assume that no line item will specify a fruit name that is not specified in the fruit prices. Each invoice is terminated by a line consisting of the text END_INVOICE. As a special case, if a line with the text QUIT appears instead of the beginning of an invoice, the program should exit immediately. The overall input will always be terminated by a QUIT line. (5 points)

Example input:

orange 0.80

pomegranate 2.50

plum 1.20

peach 1.00

persimmon 1.75

lime 0.60

END_PRICES

persimmon 2

orange 3

peach 1

plum 10

pomegranate 5

END_INVOICE

peach 11

plum 5

orange 1

lime 9

END_INVOICE

QUIT

For each invoice, the program should print a single line of the form Total: X.YY where X.YY is the total cost of the invoice, which is the sum of the costs of all of the line items in the invoice. The cost should be printed with exactly two digits after the decimal point.

Example output (corresponding to the input shown above):

Total: 31.40

Total: 23.20
