    The document contains the details of Statistics Test 2 from the Institute of Mathematical Sciences at the University of Malaya. [1] It provides experimental data on the effect of temperature on chemical concentration. Students are asked to identify the value of k based on their student ID, find the least squares regression equation and interpret the slope, compute the coefficient of determination, and assess if the equation can be used to predict concentration at 5°C. [2] It also shows a diagram of score distributions for five student majors. Students are asked to suggest a suitable test to compare major means, justify if its assumptions are met based on the diagram, and perform the test using the given sum of squares data and state their

    Answer all questions.

    1. The concentration level of a particular chemical produced changes with temperature.


    An experiment to observe the effect of temperature (in degree Celsius, C) on the
    concentration level (in mg/L) of the chemical produced is conducted. The following
    results are obtained. At each temperature, the experiment was repeated twice
    independently under the same experimental condition.

    Temperature, 𝑥 Concentration Level, 𝑦

    a) Let 𝑚 be the last 2 digits of your student ID. It is given that

    30, 𝑚 < 25
    𝑚 + 6, 25 ≤ 𝑚 < 50
    𝑘={
    𝑚 − 20, 50 ≤ 𝑚 < 70
    52, 70 ≤ 𝑚.

    State the value of 𝑘.

    b) Using the 14 observations above, find the least squares regression equation of the
    concentration level of the chemical produced on temperature. Interpret the slope
    coefficient of the equation obtained.

    c) Compute the coefficient of determination and explain what the value means.

    (3 marks)

    d) Is it reasonable to use the equation in part (b) to predict the concentration level of
    the chemical produced under the same experimental condition at 5C? Justify
    your answer.

    (2 marks)

    2. A lecturer wants to compare the scores of students from five different majors (A, B, C,
    D and E) in her class at the end of a particular semester. The following diagram shows
    the distributions of the scores for a total of 250 students from the five different majors.

    a) Suggest a suitable test of hypotheses to test for the equality of means for the scores
    between the five majors. Based on the diagram, justify whether the assumptions
    of the suggested test are met.

    (3 marks)

    b) It is given that the within-sample sum of squares is 7888.5 and the total sum of
    squares is 29322. At the 5% significance level, perform the test suggest in part a)
    and state your conclusion.
