This module is a practice final for an associated elementary statistics textbook, Collaborative Statistics.

Questions 1-2 refer to the following:

An experiment consists of tossing two 12-sided dice (the numbers 1-12 are printed on the sides of each dice).

  • Let Event A = both dice show an even number
  • Let Event B = both dice show a number more than 8

Events A and B are:

  • Mutually exclusive.
  • Independent.
  • Mutually exclusive and independent.
  • Neither mutually exclusive nor independent.

B: Independent.

Questions 4 - 5 refer to the following:

118 students were asked what type of color their bedrooms were painted: light colors, dark colors or vibrant colors. The results were tabulated according to gender.

Light colors Dark colors Vibrant colors
Female 20 22 28
Male 10 30 8

Find the probability that a randomly chosen student is male or has a bedroom painted with light colors.

  • 10 118
  • 68 118
  • 48 118
  • 10 48

B: 68 118

Questions 8 – 9 refer to the following:

On any given day, approximately 37.5% of the cars parked in the De Anza parking structure are parked crookedly. (Survey done by Kathy Plum.) We randomly survey 22 cars. We are interested in the number of cars that are parked crookedly.

For every 22 cars, how many would you expect to be parked crookedly, on average?

  • 8.25
  • 11
  • 18
  • 7.5

A: 8.25

Using a sample of 15 Stanford-Binet IQ scores, we wish to conduct a hypothesis test. Our claim is that the mean IQ score on the Stanford-Binet IQ test is more than 100. It is known that the standard deviation of all Stanford-Binet IQ scores is 15 points. The correct distribution to use for the hypothesis test is:

  • Binomial
  • Student's-t
  • Normal
  • Uniform

C: Normal

Questions 11 – 13 refer to the following:

De Anza College keeps statistics on the pass rate of students who enroll in math classes. In a sample of 1795 students enrolled in Math 1A (1st quarter calculus), 1428 passed the course. In a sample of 856 students enrolled in Math 1B (2nd quarter calculus), 662 passed. In general, are the pass rates of Math 1A and Math 1B statistically the same? Let A = the subscript for Math 1A and B = the subscript for Math 1B.

can someone explain to me, an ignorant high school student, why the trend of the graph doesn't follow the fact that the higher frequency a sound wave is, the more power it is, hence, making me think the phons output would follow this general trend?
Joseph Reply
Nevermind i just realied that the graph is the phons output for a person with normal hearing and not just the phons output of the sound waves power, I should read the entire thing next time
Joseph
Follow up question, does anyone know where I can find a graph that accuretly depicts the actual relative "power" output of sound over its frequency instead of just humans hearing
