Question
The heights of a population of mother-daughter pairs have a bivariate
a) Of the mothers on the 90th percentile of mothers' heights, what proportion have daughters who are taller than the 90th percentile of daughters' heights?
b) In what proportion of mother-daughter pairs are both women taller than average? (This means the mothers are taller than the average mother and the daughters are taller than the average daughter.)
[Hint: Remember that you can express standard bivariate normal variables in terms of two independent standard normal variables.]

- Listed in the accompanying table are heights (in.) of mothers and their first daughters. The data pairs are from a journal kept by Francis Galton. Use the listed paired sample data, and assume that the samples are simple random samples and that the differences have a distribution that is approximately normal. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that there is no difference in heights between mothers and their first daughters.

The median rating for Aggressiveness is higher for the Tearless image than for the Tearful image. The standard deviations for both groups are similar. At least one quarter of the respondents in each group rated the dog’s aggressiveness as 0. The distribution of Aggressiveness is positively (right) skewed for both the Tearful and the Tearless image. No one who saw the Tearful dog rated its aggressiveness as 8 or 9.arrow_forward
