Chapter 1: Q 32. (page 27)

Python eggsRefer to Exercise 26.

(a) Of the eggs that hatched, what proportion were randomly assigned to hot water?

(b) Of the eggs that were randomly assigned to hot water, what percent hatched?

(c) The segmented bar graph displays the distribution of hatching status by water temperature. Describe what this graph reveals about the association between these two variables for the python eggs in this experiment.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Part (a) .5814

Part (b) 72.12%

Part (c) As the temperature rises, eggs appear to be more likely to hatch. We notice that the majority of the eggs hatch at each temperature.

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1. Given information.

The given table is:

02

Part (a) Step 2. Find the proportion of hatched eggs that were randomly assigned to hot water.

The total of eggs that were hatched are: 129

From them, 75 eggs are assigned to hot water.

Therefore, the required proportion is:

75129=2543or鈮�0.5814

03

Part (b) Step 1. Find the percent of hatched eggs from the eggs that were randomly assigned hot water.

The total of eggs that were assigned hot water: 104

From them, 75 eggs are hatched.

Therefore, the required proportion is:

75104=2343or72.12%

04

Part (c) Step 1.  Describe the association between these two variables from the given graph.

When comparing the green sections of the bars of the bar graph, we see that the green section is smallest for "Low" and greatest for "High". This suggests that eggs are more likely to hatch as the temperature rises.

Because the green area of each bar is larger than the red section of the bar, the majority of the eggs hatch at each temperature.

The Dallas Mavericks won the NBA championship in the 2010鈥�2011 season. The two-way table displays the relationship between the outcome of each game in the regular season and whether the Mavericks scored at least 100 points.

Which of the following is the best evidence that there is an association between the outcome of a game and whether or not the Mavericks scored at least 100 points?

(a) The Mavericks won 57 games and lost only 25 games.

(b) The Mavericks scored at least 100 points in 47 games and fewer than 100 points in only 35 games.

(c) The Mavericks won 43 games when scoring at least 100 points and only 14 games when scoring fewer than 100 points.

(d) The Mavericks won a higher proportion of games when scoring at least 100 points (43/47) than when they scored fewer than 100 points (14/35).

(e) The combination of scoring 100 or more points and winning the game occurred more often (43 times) than any other combination of outcomes.

Social mediaThe Pew Research Center surveyed a random sample of U.S. teens and adults about their use of social media. The following pictograph displays some results. Explain how this graph is misleading.

Who studies more? Researchers asked the students in a large first-year college class how many minutes they studied on a typical weeknight. The back-to-back stemplot displays the responses from random samples of 30 women and 30 men from the class, rounded to the nearest 10 minutes. Write a few sentences comparing the male and female distributions of study time.

The following bar graph shows the distribution of favorite subject for a sample of 1000 students. What is the most serious problem with the graph?

(a) The subjects are not listed in the correct order.

(b) This distribution should be displayed with a pie chart.

(c) The vertical axis should show the percent of students.

(d) The vertical axis should start at 0 rather than 100.

(e) The foreign language bar should be broken up by language.

Strong paper towels In commercials for Bounty paper towels, the manufacturer claims that they are the 鈥渜uicker picker-upper,鈥� but are they also the stronger picker-upper? Two of Mr. Tabor鈥檚 statistics students, Wesley and Maverick, decided to find out. They selected a random sample of 30 Bounty paper towels and a random sample of 30 generic paper towels and measured their strength when wet. To do this, they uniformly soaked each paper towel with 4 ounces of water, held two opposite edges of the paper towel, and counted how many quarters each paper towel could hold until ripping, alternating brands. The data are displayed in the relative frequency histograms. Compare the distributions

Part (a). Would it be appropriate to use frequency histograms instead of relative frequency histograms in this setting? Explain why or why not.

Part (b). Compare the distributions of number of quarters until breaking for the two paper towel brands
