    Final Exam - Probability and Statistics

    Uploaded by

    Manuel John Soriano
    This document contains the final examination for a probability and statistics class. It includes 3 exercises testing hypotheses about: 1) average cellphone brand sales, 2) the relationship between student push-ups and sit-ups scores, and 3) differences between student pre-test and post-test math scores after remediation. Students are asked to state hypotheses, identify critical values, compute test values, make decisions, and summarize results for each exercise. Additionally, students are asked to discuss statistical assumptions and consequences of violations, and identify appropriate statistical tools for comparing smoker vs. non-smoker lung damage scores and chicken weight growth from different feeds.

    MM 212 – Probability and Statistics


    Final Examination

    Last Name First Name MI Score

    Part I. (60pts) For the following exercises where applicable


    a. State the hypothesis and identify the claim
    b. Find the critical value
    c. Compute the test value (you can do it manually and verify your answer with the aid of
    technology)
    d. Make the decision (you can use the traditional or the p-value method)
    e. Summarize results

    1. MHDM Gadget store is selling 4 brands of cellphone. The owner is interested if there is a
    significant difference in the average sales for a week. The following data are recorded
    Brand A Brand B Brand C Brand D
    7 9 2 4
    3 8 3 5
    5 8 4 7
    6 7 5 8
    9 6 6 3
    4 9 4 4
    3 10 2 5
    Test the hypothesis at 0.05 level of significance that the average sales of the four brands of
    cellphone are equal. Which brand/s of cellphone is more saleable? (20pts)

    2. In a Physical Education class, several fitness scores were taken. The following sample is the
    numbers of push-ups and sit-ups done by 10 randomly selected students:
    Student Push-ups Sit-ups
    1 27 30
    2 22 26
    3 15 25
    4 35 42
    5 30 38
    6 52 40
    7 35 32
    8 55 54
    9 40 50
    10 40 43
    Test the hypothesis at 0.05 level of significance that there is no relationship between the
    number of push-ups and sit-ups. Predict the number of sit-ups for a student who can finish
    45 push-ups. (20pts)
    3. A study was conducted on the effect of Math Remediation to the performance of 20 selected
    students. A pre-test was administered before the remediation was conducted. After 2 months,
    the same instrument was used to get the posttest result. The following is the result of the
    instrument.

    Student Pretest Posttest


    1 18 30
    2 15 10
    3 15 16
    4 20 25
    5 18 10
    6 40 45
    7 10 15
    8 10 10
    9 12 18
    10 20 25

    13 10 25
    14 15 25
    15 20 20
    16 10 20
    17 18 22
    18 14 20
    19 15 20
    20 20 15

    Test the hypothesis at 0.05 level of significance that there is a difference between the
    pretest and posttest scores. (20pts)

    Part II. (40pts) Answer the following items substantially.


    1. What are the different statistical assumptions? Discuss each. What will happen when the
    statistical assumptions are wrong?

    2. Identify the appropriate statistical tool/s for each item. Justify your answers.
    a. Smokers in general, have greater lung damage, as measured by the destructive image
    scores, than do non-smokers.
    b. Is the weight growth of chicken from four types of feeds different from one another?
