A researcher would like to know whether there is a consistent, predictable relationship between ACT scores and GPA for high school students. A sample of 100 students is obtained from students who took the ACT in their Junior year. Based on the test results and gpa scores, students are classified as high or low for ACT and for GPA. The results are summarized in the following frequency distribution:                                                                         ACT Score                                                             High                      Low                High GPA                            39                          21                          Low GPA                            15                          25                Based on the data, is there a significant relationship between ACT scores and GPA (α = .05). Compute the appropriate measure of association.

A survey was given to 18 students. One question asked about the one-way distance the student had to travel to attend college. The results, in miles, are shown in the following table. Use the median procedure for finding quartiles to find the first, second, and third quartiles for the data. Distance Traveled to Attend College     30    36    8    12    38    72    4    24    26        26    6    40    50    26    76    14    12    32     Q1  =    Q2  =    Q3  =

Suppose that a polling company surveyed 600 people about how much time they spend watching television each day. The results of this survey were compiled and used to create this relative frequency histogram.   Assume that all percentages shown in the histogram are whole numbers. Each of the bars in this histogram includes only the left endpoint of the class except for the last bar, which also includes the right endpoint. What percentage of respondents said that they watch television at least six hours per day? How many respondents said that they watch television between three and five hours per day?

Which of the following  percentiles represents the median of a data set? Select one: a. 100th b. 25th c. 50th d. 75th

The midterm and final exam grades for a statistics course are provided in the data set below. Jaymes, a student in the class, scored 86 on both exams. Treat the given data sets as samples. Midterm: 80, 78, 85, 82, 79, 79, 78, 86, 80, 84, 78, 84, 80, 84, 81, 78, 81, 82, 78, 84 Final: 81, 88, 68, 69, 69 81, 82, 86, 76, 71, 72, 68, 77, 86, 68, 83, 84, 71, 81, 87 z-score for midterm: 1.857 z-score for final: 1.181 Based on the z-scores calculated above, which of Jaymes's grades is more unusual, the midterm grade or the final exam grade? Select the correct answer below: A. The absolute value of the z-score for the final exam grade is greater than for the midterm grade, so the final exam grade is more unusual. B. The absolute value of the z-score for the midterm exam grade is less than for the final grade, so the midterm grade is more unusual. C. The absolute value of the z-score for the midterm exam grade is greater than for the final grade, so the midterm grade is more…

Consider the following data. 14,6,−11,−6,5,1014,6,−11,−6,5,10 Copy Data Step 1 of 3:  Determine the mean of the given data.

A marketing firm is doing research for an internet-based company. It wants to appeal to the age group of people who spend the most money online. The company wants to know if there is a difference in the mean amount of money people spend per morith on Internet purchases depending on their age bracket. The marketing firm looked at two age groups, 18-24 years and 25-30 years, and collected the data shown in the following table. Let Population 1 be the amount of money spent per month on internet purchases by people in the 18-24 age bracket and Population 2 be the amount of money spent per month on internet purchases by people in the 25-30 age bracket. Assume that the population variances are not the same. Internet Spending per Month 18-24 Years Answer Mean Amount Spent Standard Deviation Sample Size Step 1 of 2: Construct a 99 % confidence interval for the true difference between the mean amounts of money per month that people in these two age groups spend on Internet purchases. Round the…

I need help with something regarding this problem.  The National Sleep Foundation recommends that adults aged 18 to 64 get an average of 8 hours of sleep per night. A survey of sleep hours was taken during a Statistics class. The data is listed below:   4, 5, 5, 5, 5.5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 9, 10, 10   Do we have enough evidence at the 0.05 significance level to say that statistics students tend to get less sleep than the recommended average of 8 hours per night?   How would I get the degrees of freedom?
