Oberlin Tribune

Gainesville Sun

Los Angeles Times

Washington Post

b.

The possible sample of size 4 for all companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange is given as,

Clorox

Duke Energy

Neiman Marcus

Seagate

03

Provide one possible sample of size 4.

c.

The possible sample of size 4 for all students at my university is given as,

Pooja

Neha

Ashima

Shruti

d.

The possible sample of size 4 for all grade point averages of students at my collegeis given as,

3.56

The cdf for \({\rm{X( = measurement error)}}\) of Exercise \({\rm{3}}\) is

\({\rm{F(x) = }}\left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\rm{0}}&{{\rm{x < - 2}}}\\{\frac{{\rm{1}}}{{\rm{2}}}{\rm{ + }}\frac{{\rm{3}}}{{{\rm{32}}}}\left( {{\rm{4x - }}\frac{{{{\rm{x}}^{\rm{3}}}}}{{\rm{3}}}} \right)}&{{\rm{ - 2}} \le {\rm{x < 2}}}\\{\rm{1}}&{{\rm{2}} \le {\rm{x}}}\end{array}} \right.\)

a. Compute \({\rm{P(X < 0)}}\).

b. Compute \({\rm{P( - 1 < X < 1)}}\).

c. Compute \({\rm{P(}}{\rm{.5 < X)}}\).

d. Verify that \({\rm{f(x)}}\) is as given in Exercise \({\rm{3}}\) by obtaining \({\rm{F'(x)}}\).

e. Verify that \(\widetilde {\rm{\mu }}{\rm{ = 0}}\).

A Pareto diagram is a variation of a histogram forcategorical data resulting from a quality control study.Each category represents a different type of product non-conformity or production problem. The categories areordered so that the one with the largest frequencyappears on the far left, then the category with the secondlargest frequency, and so on. Suppose the following information on nonconformities in circuit packs isobtained: failed component, 126; incorrect component,210; insufficient solder, 67; excess solder, 54; missingcomponent, 131. Construct a Pareto diagram.

a. Determine the value of the fourth spread.

b. Are there any outliers in the sample? Any extreme outliers?

c. Construct a boxplot and comment on its features.

d. By how much could the largest observation, currently 424, be decreased without affecting the value of the fourth spread?

Compute the sample median, 25% trimmed mean, 10% trimmed mean, and sample mean for the lifetime data given in Exercise 27, and compare these measures.

The accompanying summary data on CeO2 particlesizes (nm) under certain experimental conditions wasread from a graph in the article 鈥淣anoceria鈥擡nergetics of Surfaces, Interfaces and WaterAdsorption鈥� (J. of the Amer. Ceramic Soc., 2011:3992鈥�3999):

a. What proportion of the observations are less than 5?

b. What proportion of the observations are at least 6?

c. Construct a histogram with relative frequency on the vertical axis and comment on interesting features. In particular, does the distribution of particle sizes appear to be reasonably symmetric or somewhat skewed? (Note:The investigators fit lognormaldistribution to the data; this is discussed in Chapter 4.)

d. Construct a histogram with density on the vertical axis and compare to the histogram in (c).
