SAT Score Analysis
You have been asked to analyze SAT scores (which may be 400 - 1600).
You will be analyzing a population (a list) which consists of a number of
samples (lists) of student scores.
Here is the code to generate the population/samples:
import random
population=[]
for i in range(5):
sample = []
n = random.randint(5,10)
for num in range(n):
sample.append(random.randrange(400,1600))
population.append(sample)
The analysis should be conducted as follows:
##calculate the total number of scores
##calculate the total value of all scores
##find the average score of the population
##print the total number of scores
##print the total value of all scores
##print the average of all of the scores
##while a sample has an average that is less than the
##average of all scores add a random value 1000 - 1600
##to the sample until the average is no longer less than
##the average of all scores
##please note: this could result in lots of numbers
##being appended to the sample
##print the population
##adjust the population by
##removing the highest and lowest scores from each sample
##print the (adjusted) population
##calculate the total number of (adjusted) scores
##calculate the total value of all (adjusted) scores
##find the average score of the (adjusted) population
##print the total number of (adjusted) scores
##print the total value of all (adjusted) scores
##print the average of all of the (adjusted) scores

"Make a tree diagram to determine the theoretical probability for this experiment: Spin the arrows (not shown) on each of the following three spinners, and note the color where the arrow lands on each spinner. Spinner 1 is divided into two equal sectors, labeled “Red” and “Blue.” Spinner 2 is first divided into two equal sectors. The left is labeled “Green.” The right is then divided into two equal sectors, labeled “Red” and “Blue.” Spinner 3 is divided into three equal sectors, labeled “Red,” “Blue,” and “Green.” Give the sample space for the experiment and the probability of each outcome. What is the probability of getting at least 1 red? What is the probability of getting at least 1 blue?"
