Quantitative or Qualitative 5. Calculate relative frequency of scores by class. You determine the class intervals, so you do not have to use all rows or you can add some. 6. Construct a histogram of relative frequency of scores by class.
MA 2113 Homework #2 Be sure to show all tables and calculations! Table 1. Average annual OPEC crude oil price from 1990 to 2018 (in U.S. dollars per barrel). Year Price 1990 22 1991 19 1992 18 1993 16 1994 15 1995 17 1996 20 1997 19 1998 12 1999 17 2000 28 2001 23 2002 24 2003 28 2004 36 2005 51 2006 61 2007 69 2008 94 2009 61 2010 77 2011 107 2012 109 2013 106 2014 96 2015 50 2016 41 2017 53 2018 71 1. What is the mean and standard deviation for average annual price? 2. What is the median and Five-number Summary (quartiles) for annual price?
MA 2113 Homework #3 1. Determine outliers, if any, and construct a boxplot for the following data. Table 1. Number of fish found in 16 small streams on Tombigbee National Forest in 2003 while sampling the fish community with a seine net. 547 603 15 357 385 130 160 183 281 365 1113 1100 140 320 161 78 2. For the following equations provide: a) y-intercept and slope (don t forget to do this!) b) a graph of the equation (plot at least 2 points other than the y-intercept) y = 2 + 2x y = 6 4x y = 1.5x 3 y = x 4
ST 2113 Homework #4 1. Calculate a regression equation using the (x, y) data below (8 points). We are interested to see if age of a used vehicle (x) has any relationship to cost (y). To check if you have done your work correctly, this should be your answer: ŷ = 220.9 14.6 x Of course, show all your work. Table 1. I went to AutoTrader.com and searched for used car prices for my type of vehicle, a Nissan XTerra. I searched for used XTerra s from 2 (2014) 10 (2006) years of age within 100 miles of Meridian. I recorded the first ten ages (x) and prices (y) the search produced. For easier calculations, prices are given in $100 s. 2. Graph a scatterplot of the data along with the regression line from the regression equation (2 points).
MA 2113 Homework #5 1. Compute the coefficient of determination (r 2 ) for the regression equation calculated using the data below. Table 1. Size, x, in hundreds of square feet and price, y, in thousands of dollars from a random sample of 9 custom homes listed for sale in Phoenix, AZ. Size (x ) Price (y ) 26 520 27 605 33 555 29 627 29 586 34 711 30 718 40 854 22 476 Hint: You will need to first calculate the regression equation as you did in Homework #4 (using the table above). You should get b 1 = 19.1 and b 0 =55.0. For the regression coefficient below, you should get r 2 = 0.7266 or 72.7%. Price (y ) 520 605 555 627 586 711 718 854 476
MA 2113 Homework #6 1. Compute the Pearson correlation coefficient, r, for the data below. Table 1. Data from homework #5, size, x, in hundreds of square feet and price, y, in thousands of dollars from a random sample of 9 custom homes listed for sale in Phoenix, AZ. x y 26 520 27 605 33 555 29 627 29 586 34 711 30 718 40 854 22 476 To check your final answer, r = 0.8538 X 100 = 85.4%
ST 2113 Homework #7 Name: Mississippi has 235 high schools that report mean ACT scores for graduating seniors. I have grouped the schools by their mean ACT score rounded to the nearest whole number (e.g., in the first row, there are 13 high schools with a mean ACT score of 15). (Hint: μ = 18.74) Reminder: You will have a quiz over this procedure when we meet for class after Spring Break on March 18. Please, contact me if you need help or would like me to send your graded homework via e-mail to study before the quiz. What is the population mean (μ) and SD (σ) for this population? ACT Score x Freq (Count) 15 13 16 36 17 26 18 29 19 29 20 50 21 31 22 16 23 4 24 1
