Chapter 1: Q 26. (page 26)

Python eggs How is the hatching of water python eggs influenced by the temperature of the snake鈥檚 nest? Researchers randomly assigned newly laid eggs to one of three water temperatures: hot, neutral, or cold. Hot duplicates the extra warmth provided by the mother python, and cold duplicates the absence of the mother. The two-way table summarizes the data on whether or not the eggs hatched.

(a) What percent of eggs were randomly assigned to hot water?

(b) What proportion of eggs in the study hatched?

(c) What percent of eggs in the study were randomly assigned to cold or neutral water and hatched?

Short Answer

Part (a) 55.61%

Part (b)129187鈮�0.6898

Part (c) 28.88%

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1. Given information.

The given table is:

02

Part (a) step 2. Find the percent of eggs randomly assigned to hot water 

The total number of eggs assigned to hot water is: 104

The total number of eggs that are included in this study is: 187

The required percentage is:

104187鈮�0.5561or55.61%

03

Part (b) Step 1. Find the proportion of eggs hatched in the study.

The total number of eggs that are hatched in this study is: 129

The required percentage is:

129187鈮�0.6898

04

Part (c) Step 1. Find the percent of eggs randomly assigned to cold or neutral water and hatched.

The total number of eggs that are assigned to cold or neutral water and also hatched are:

16+38=54

The required percentage is:

54187鈮�0.2888or28.88%

. Which of the following is the best reason for choosing a stemplot rather than a histogram to display the distribution of a quantitative variable?

a. Stemplots allow you to split stems; histograms don鈥檛.

b. Stemplots allow you to see the values of individual observations.

c. Stemplots are better for displaying very large sets of data.

d. Stemplots never require rounding of values.

e. Stemplots make it easier to determine the shape of a distribution.

The histogram shows the heights of 300 randomly selected high school students. Which of the following is the best description of the shape of the distribution of heights?

a. Roughly symmetric and single-peaked

b. Roughly symmetric and double-peaked

c. Roughly symmetric and multi-peaked

d. Skewed to the left

e. Skewed to the right

Superpowers A total of 415 children from the United Kingdom and the United States who completed a survey in a recent year were randomly selected. Each student鈥檚 country of origin was recorded along with which superpower they would most like to have: the ability to fly, ability to freeze time, invisibility, superstrength, or telepathy (ability to read minds). The data are summarized in the following table.

(a) What proportion of students in the sample are from the United States?

(b) Find the distribution of superpower preference for the students in the sample using relative frequencies.

(c) What percent of students in the sample are from the United Kingdom and prefer telepathy as their superpower preference?

Pair-a-dice The dotplot shows the results of rolling a pair of fair, six-sided dice and Page Number: 48 finding the sum of the up-faces 100 times. Describe the shape of the distribution.

Where do the young live? Here is a stemplot of the percent of residents aged 25 to 34 in each of the 50 states:

Part (a). Why did we split stems?

Part (b). Give an appropriate ate key for this stemplot.

Part (c). Describe the shape of the distribution. Are there any outliers?
