Chapter 2: Q. 121 (page 159)

Use the following information to answer the next two exercises. X= the number of days per week that 100clients use a particular exercise facility.

The number that is 1.5standard deviations BELOW the mean is approximately

a.0.7b.4.8c.-2.8d.Cannotbedetermined

Short Answer

Expert verified

The answer is a.

The number that is 1.5standard deviation BELOW the mean is approximately 0.7.

Step by step solution

01

Given 

X= the number of days per week that 100clients use a particular exercise facility.

02

Explanation 

Xis the number of days per week that100clients use a particular exercise facility.

n=100

x炉=0(3)+1(12)+2(33)+3(28)+4(11)+5(9)+6(4)100

x炉=275100=2.75

The sample variance, s2, is equal to the sum of the last column (184.75)divided by the total number of data values minus one (100-1)

localid="1649444160964" s2=鈭�f(x-x炉)2n-1=184.75100-1=1.866

The square root of the sample variance equals the sample standard deviation s.

localid="1649444175515" s=1.866=1.3660

value=mean+(#ofSTDEV)(standard_deviation)

x=x炉+(#of STDEV)(s)

x=2.75-1.5(1.3660)

x=0.701

As a result, the number 1.5standard deviations below the mean is roughly 0.7.

Use the following information to answer the next nine exercises: The population parameters below describe the full-time equivalent number of students (FTES) each year at Lake Tahoe Community College from 1976鈥�1977 through 2004鈥�2005.

鈥� 渭 = 1000 FTES

鈥� median = 1,014 FTES

鈥� 蟽 = 474 FTES

鈥� first quartile = 528.5 FTES

鈥� third quartile = 1,447.5 FTES

鈥� n = 29 years

What percent of the FTES were from 528.5 to 1447.5? How do you know?

The University of California has two criteria used to set admission standards for freshmen to be admitted to a college in the UC system:

a. Students' GPAs and scores on standardized tests (SATs and ACTs) are entered into a formula that calculates an "admissions index" score. The admissions index score is used to set eligibility standards intended to meet the goal of admitting the top 12%of high school students in the state. In this context, what percentile does the top 12%represent?

b. Students whoseGPAs are at or above the 96th percentile of all students at their high school are eligible (called eligible in the local context), even if they are not in the top 12%of all students in the state. What percentage of students from each high school are "eligible in the local context"?

Suppose that you are buying a house. You and your realtor have determined that the most expensive house you can afford is the 34thpercentile. The 34thpercentile of housing prices is $240,000in the town you want to move to. In this town, can you afford 34%of the houses or 66%of the houses?

The following data show the distances (in miles) from the homes of off-campus statistics students to the college. Create a stem plot using the data and identify any outliers:

0.5;0.7;1.1;1.2;1.2;1.3;1.3;1.5;1.5;1.7;1.7;1.8;1.9;2.0;2.2;2.5;2.6;2.8;2.8;2.8;3.5;3.8;4.4;4.8;4.9;5.2;5.5;5.7;5.8;8.0

On an exam, would it be more desirable to earn a grade with a high or low percentile? Explain
