Tennis ReplayRepeat the preceding exercise after changing the assumed rate of overturned calls from 25% to 22%.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a). The probability of the number of overturned calls is exactly 231 is 0.0003.

(b). The probability of the number of overturned calls is 231 or more is 0.0013.

The result is significantly high.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

Refer to the previous exercise for the information.

The number of challenges made to referee calls in professional tennis singles play is recorded.

The given sample size\(n = 879\)and probability of success \(p = 0.22\).

Then,

\(\begin{aligned}{c}q = 1 - p\\ = 1 - 0.22\\ = 0.78\end{aligned}\)

02

Check the requirement

Let X be the random variable for the number of overturned calls in 879 challenges.

From the given information,

\(\begin{aligned}{c}np = 879 \times 0.22\\ = 193.38\\ > 5\end{aligned}\)

\(\begin{aligned}{c}nq = 879 \times 0.78\\ = 685.62\\ > 5\end{aligned}\)

Here both\({\bf{np}}\)and\({\bf{nq}}\)are greater than 5. Hence probabilities from a binomial

probability distribution can be approximated reasonably well by using a normal distribution.

03

Mean and standard deviation for normal distribution

The mean value is,

\(\begin{aligned}{c}\mu = np\\ = 879 \times 0.22\\ = 193.38\end{aligned}\)

The standard deviation is,

\(\begin{aligned}{c}\sigma = \sqrt {npq} \\ = \sqrt {879 \times 0.22 \times 0.78} \\ = 12.28\end{aligned}\)

04

Compute the probability of exactly 231 overturned calls

a.

The probability of exactly 231 overturned calls is expressed using continuity correction as,For \(P\left( {X = n} \right)\;{\rm{use}}\;P\left( {n - 0.5 < X < n + 0.5} \right)\)

Here

\(\begin{aligned}{c}P\left( {x = 231} \right) = P\left( {231 - 0.5 < x < 231 + 0.5} \right)\\ = P\left( {230.5 < x < 231.5} \right)\end{aligned}\)

Thus, the expression is \[P\left( {230.5 < x < 231.5} \right)\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\,...\left( 1 \right)\]

05

Obtain the corresponding z-scores

Find zscore using\(x = 230.5\),\(\mu = 193.38,\sigma = 12.28\) are as follows:

\(\begin{aligned}{c}z = \frac{{x - \mu }}{\sigma }\\ = \frac{{230.5 - 193.38}}{{12.28}}\\ = 3.02\end{aligned}\)

The z-score is 3.02

Find zscore using\(x = 231.5\),\(\mu = 193.38,\sigma = 12.28\) as follows:

\(\begin{aligned}{c}z = \frac{{x - \mu }}{\sigma }\\ = \frac{{231.5 - 193.38}}{{12.28}}\\ = 3.10\end{aligned}\)

The z-score is 3.10

Using Table A-2, the cumulative area corresponding to z-scores \(z = 3.02\) and \(z = 3.10\), are 0.9987 and 0.9990.

Substitute the values in equation (1),

\(\begin{aligned}{c}P\left( {230.5 < X < 231.5} \right) = P\left( {3.02 < Z < 3.10} \right)\\ = P\left( {Z < 3.10} \right) - P\left( {Z < 3.02} \right)\\ = 0.9990 - 0.9987\\ = 0.0003\end{aligned}\)

06

Compute the probability for 231 or more calls

b. The probability of 231 or more overturned calls is obtained by using continuity correction\(P\left( {x \ge n} \right)\;{\rm{use}}\;P\left( {X > n + 0.5} \right)\) as,

\(\begin{aligned}{c}P\left( {X \ge 231} \right) = P\left( {X > 231 - 0.5} \right)\\ = P\left( {X > 230.5} \right)\end{aligned}\)

Thus, the expression is \[P\left( {X > 230.5} \right)\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;...\left( 1 \right)\]

07

Obtain the z-score

Find zscore using\(x = 230.5\),\(\mu = 193.38,\sigma = 12.28\) as follows:

\(\begin{aligned}{c}z = \frac{{x - \mu }}{\sigma }\\ = \frac{{230.5 - 193.38}}{{12.28}}\\ = 3.02\end{aligned}\)

The z-score is 3.02.

Using standard normal table, the cumulative area corresponding to 3.02 is 0.9987.

Substitute the value in equation (1),

\(\begin{aligned}{c}P\left( {X > 230.5} \right) = P\left( {Z > 3.02} \right)\\ = 1 - 0.9987\\ = 0.0013\end{aligned}\)

Thus, the probability of 231 or more calls is 0.0013.

If \(P\left( {X\;{\rm{or}}\;{\rm{more}}} \right) \le 0.05\), then it is significantly high.

In our case, 0.0013 < 0.05. Therefore, it is significantly high.

Conclusion If we analyze the listed body temperatures with suitable methods of statistics, we conclude that when the differences are found between the 8 AM body temperatures and the 12 AM body temperatures, there is a 64% chance that the differences can be explained by random results obtained from populations that have the same 8 AM and 12 AM body temperatures. What should we conclude about the statistical significance of those differences?
