I. (2pts) Define the following:

a) Parameter: See book definition.

b) Sample: See book definition.

c) Population: See book definition.

d) Frequency Distribution:See book definition.

e) Symmetric Distribution: Left half of histogram or curve is a roughly a mirror image of right,

~50% on each side.

f)Standard Deviation:See book definition.

g) Random Sample See book definition.

II. What is the difference between qualitative data and quantitative data, be specific. (3pts each)

Qualitative data can be separated into different categories that are distinguishable by some nonnumeric characteristic.

Quantitative data consists of numbers representing counts or measurements.

Is the weight or height of your professor a qualitative data? Yes or NO

III. Provide the appropriate notation for the following: (1 point each)

a) Symbol for the populationmean_______

b) Symbol for the samplemean_____

c) Symbol for population variance_______

d) Symbol for sample variance_____

e) Symbol for standard deviation of the population_______

f) Symbol for the standard deviation of the sample___S_____

IV. True or False (1pts each)

__T___Two events A and B are independent if the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of

the occurrence of the other.

___T__Random Sample is a sample selected in such a way that allows every member of the population to have the same chance of being chosen.

___F__Mutually Exclusive events are events that CAN occur simultaneously.

___F__Onsome occasions the probability of an event can be negative.

___T__The probability of an event that is certain to happen is 1.

___T__If a sample has a variance of2.324, it’s standard deviation is 1.524.

___F__If A is an event of a sample space with, then P(A)=0.50.

___T__If a sample has a standard deviation of 4 then its variance is 16.

___T_For any event A, the probability of A is between 0 and 1 inclusive.

___T__ Pr( at least one ) =1- Pr( None)

  1. (2pts each, 12 total) Find the probability that when a couple has three children,
  2. Among the three children , there is exactly one girl.
  3. Among the three children, there is exactly two girls.
  4. Among the three children, there is exactly three girls.
  5. Among the three children,at least one girl.
  6. Among the three children one or two girls
  7. Among the three children, the complement of three girls.

Hint: Start with the sample space, there is 8 simple events in the sample space.

VI. ( 4 points each, 8 points total)

Cause of Death
Cancer / Heart Disease / Other / Total
Smoker / 135 / 310 / 205 / 650
Nonsmoker / 55 / 155 / 140 / 350
Total / 190 / 465 / 345 / 1000

Find the following two probabilities using the table above.

1) If one person is randomly selected, find the probability that he or she died of heart disease.

2) If one person is randomly selected, find the probability that he or she died of heat diseases given that he or she was a nonsmoker.Hint: Conditional Pr.

  1. Use the sample data “Quiz 1 M112” from below to do the following.(2points each, 12 total)

25 / 20.5 / 19.5 / 27 / 19.75 / 29.5 / 23.5 / 13.5 / 29 / 15

a) Find the mean. 22.225

b) Find the mode: NO MODE

c) Find the median:22

d) Find the range:16

e) Find the variance (show formula and plug in numbers from your calculator):

f) Find the standard deviation of the Quiz data set.

  1. (2points each, 10 total)

Interpret the 5-number summary from the Box Plot above. Note you will not get credit for just putting down the 5 numbers; you must give meaning to them.

1._Minimun quiz score is 6__

2._Maximum quiz score is_ 29__

3._1st Quartile is 15. _This means that 25% of quiz scores are below 15 or 75% of scores above 15

4._2nd Quartile or Median is 20.125. This means that 50% of quiz scores are below 20.125 or 50% of quiz scores are above 20.125_

5. _3rd Quartile is 24.875. This means that 75% of quiz scores are below 24.875 or 25% or quiz scores are above 24.875_

IV. (2 points each, 10 total)

Above is a frequency table of our Quiz 1 scores. Note that there are 11 classes and the lower limit starts at 3.75 and the class with is 2.50.

  1. How many people in class received scores btw 6.25-8.75? __1__
  2. Which class has the lowest scores and how many? __3.75 to 6.25, two students fall with in this class._
  3. How many people fall in the class score of 28.75-31.25?__3__
  4. Say, the above graph is normally distributed, what scores values would encompass approximately 95% of our Quiz 1. __(6.236 ,32.82)___
  5. Values that fallmore than two standard deviation away from the mean? ____Unusual______

V. (5pts) Scores on an Elementary Statistics test at CerritosCollege have a mean of 73 and a standard deviation of 9. Frank has a score of 91, John has a score of 73 . Convert Frank’s and John’s score to a z-score.
