Question
Let say you want to test whether the population distributions of the number of goals scored (in all competitions) are the same for the 90 European clubs. As you don't have much time in your hands, you select a random sample of 10 matches for each club with name started with letter A to L (e.g., Arsenal, Burnley, ..., Lazio) and a random sample of 15 matches for each club with name started with letter M to Z (e.g., Manchester City, ..., Zenit St Petersburg).
If you use the Kruskal-Wallis test, what is the degree of freedom?

- A random sample of 10 compact cars, 10 mid-size cars, and 10 luxury cars were selected. The time (in seconds) each of the randomly selected cars required to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph was looked up on the Autos.com website. The results are presented below. Car Type Time (in seconds) Required to Accelerate from 0 to 60 mph Compact 9.3 8.1 10.2 8.8 9.0 9.3 7.7 9.2 9.4 8.6 Mid-Size 6.9 5.7 8.3 7.7 8.6 5.9 6.1 8.8 6.1 7.2 Luxury 5.7 6.3 5.4 4.7 6.2 7.0 5.9 5.3 6.3 5.0 Conduct a hypothesis test using ! = 0.05 to determine whether the mean time required to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph is the same for compact, mid-size, and luxury cars.

Find the mean for the number of people with the genetic mutation in such groups of 600.arrow_forwardA new store is deciding what pens to stock up on. The owner wants to know if each colour of pen is equally popular so they can start ordering supplies. To find out, the owner selects a random sample of 100 students and asks them "What colour of pen do you prefer: Blue, Black, Red, or Green?" Here is the data collected from the sample of students: Blue = 35 people Black 31 people Red = 21 people Green 13 people = Calculate the appropriate test statistic for these data to determine if there is a preference in pen colour. Enter your calculated statistic below Answer:arrow_forwardThe American Water Works Association reports that, The average household water usage is more than 10 gallons per day. However, in a pandemic like this, it is suspected that there is a change in household water consumption. A researcher conducted a survey and took samples of 12 household heads and asked about the use of the gallon water. The data obtained are as follows: 74, 8, 13, 17, 13, 15, 12, 13, 15, 16, 9, 7. If it is known that the data is normally distributed. Use a significance level of 5% to test whether the average household water use has increased (greater than 10 gallons)? What will happen if the household's water use increases by 5% from the previous one? Analyze your answer and come up with a conclusion!arrow_forward
- What is the Sample?arrow_forwardTo evaluate the current status of physical activity in university students at BU, a student in Business surveyed students from their class by randomly selecting 12 rows and collecting data one 2 people from each of the selected rows. The question asked: "How many hours per week do you exercise?" What is the sample? O Students in Business at BU. O The 24 surveyed students. O Students at BU Everyone at BU. ONone of the above.arrow_forwardSuppose that a researcher is studying the wingspans of wild condors. To study this the researcher randomly selects 7 condors that live near the California Coast and 7 condors that live near the Grand Canyon for a total of 14 condors. The researcher measures the wingspan of each of these birds in inches and gets the following data. (Note: You may assume that there are about 400 condors in the wild) 94, 100, 102, 110, 115, 118, 119, 122, 123, 126, 128, 135, 136, 140 (All values in inches) (a) What sampling technique was used to collect this data? (b) Use this data to construct a 99% confidence interval for the average wingspan for California condors. Make sure to confirm all necessary conditions and interpret your interval. (Hint: This should be a 1-sample mean confidence interval) (c) Could you conclude that 99% of California condors will have wingspans inside the interval you found in (b)? Why or why not?arrow_forward
