Chapter 1: Q. T5.7 SPT (page 1)

The partially complete table that follows shows the distribution of scores on the AP Statistics exam for a class of students.

Select a student from this class at random. If the student earned a score of 3or higher on the AP Statistics exam, what is the probability that the student scored a 5?

a. 0.150

b. 0.214

c. 0.300

d. 0.428

e.0.700

Short Answer

Expert verified

The correct option is b.0.214.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information

The table is:

02

Step 2. Explanation for correct option

Consider, the missing value be x.

It is known that sum of a probability distribution is equal to 1.

Using this property, the missing value could be computed as:

0.1+0.2+x+0.25+0.15=1x=1-0.70x=0.30

Thus, the complete table is:

Using the above table, the probability that random selected student score a 5, if it is given that student earned a score of 3or higher can be computed as:

P(Scoreis5|Scoreis3ormore)=P(Scoreis5andScoreis3ormore)P(Scoreis3ormore)=P(Scoreis5)P(Scoreis3ormore)=0.150.30+0.25+0.15=0.214

The required probability is 0.214

Hence, the correct option is (b).

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?

Birth days The frequency table summarizes data on the numbers of babies born on each day of the week in the United States in a recent week.

(a) Identify the individuals in this data set.

(b) Make a frequency bar graph to display the data. Describe what you see.

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.

(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.
