TABLE 2-12
The table below contains the opinions of a sample of 200 people broken down by
gender about the latest congressional plan to eliminate anti-trust exemptions for
professional baseball.
Referring to Table 2-12, if the sample is a good representation of the population, we can
expect ________ percent of those for the plan in the population will be males.
TABLE 16-10
Business closures in Laramie, Wyoming from 2007 to 2012 were:
Microsoft Excel was used to fit both first-order and second-order autoregressive
models, resulting in the following partial outputs:
SUMMARY OUTPUT - 2nd Order Model
SUMMARY OUTPUT - 1st Order Model
Referring to Table 16-10, the value of the MAD for the second-order autoregressive
model is ________.
TABLE 11-8
An important factor in selecting database software is the time required for a user to
learn how to use the system. To evaluate three potential brands (A, B and C) of database
software, a company designed a test involving five different employees. To reduce
variability due to differences among employees, each of the five employees is trained
on each of the three different brands. The amount of time (in hours) needed to learn
each of the three different brands is given below:
Below is the Excel output for the randomized block design:
Referring to Table 11-8, the among-group variation or SSA is ________.
TABLE 17-10
Given below are results from the regression analysis where the dependent variable is
the number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff (Unemploy) and the
independent variables are the age of the worker (Age), the number of years of education
received (Edu), the number of years at the previous job (Job Yr), a dummy variable for
marital status (Married: 1 = married, 0 = otherwise), a dummy variable for head of
household (Head: 1 = yes, 0 = no) and a dummy variable for management position
(Manager: 1 = yes, 0 = no). We shall call this Model 1. The coefficient of partial
determination ( ) of each of the 6 predictors are, respectively,
0.2807, 0.0386, 0.0317, 0.0141, 0.0958, and 0.1201.
Model 2 is the regression analysis where the dependent variable is Unemploy and the
independent variables are Age and Manager. The results of the regression analysis are
given below:
Referring to Table 17-10, Model 1, what is the value of the test statistic to determine
whether there is a significant relationship between the number of weeks a worker is
unemployed due to a layoff and the entire set of explanatory variables?
TABLE 3-2
The data below represent the amount of grams of carbohydrates in a serving of
breakfast cereal in a sample of 11 different servings.
Referring to Table 3-2, construct a boxplot for the carbohydrate amounts.
TABLE 11-10
An agronomist wants to compare the crop yield of 3 varieties of chickpea seeds. She
plants all 3 varieties of the seeds on each of 5 different patches of fields. She then
measures the crop yield in bushels per acre. Treating this as a randomized block design,
the results are presented in the table that follows.
Referring to Table 11-10, what is the p-value of the F test statistic for testing the block
effects?
TABLE 13-10
The management of a chain electronic store would like to develop a model for
predicting the weekly sales (in thousands of dollars) for individual stores based on the
number of customers who made purchases. A random sample of 12 stores yields the
following results:
Referring to Table 13-10, construct a 95% prediction interval for the weekly sales of a
store that has 600 purchasing customers.
TABLE 13-3
The director of cooperative education at a state college wants to examine the effect of
cooperative education job experience on marketability in the work place. She takes a
random sample of 4 students. For these 4, she finds out how many times each had a
cooperative education job and how many job offers they received upon graduation.
These data are presented in the table below.
Referring to Table 13-3, the prediction for the number of job offers for a person with 2
coop jobs is ________.
TABLE 3-2
The data below represent the amount of grams of carbohydrates in a serving of
breakfast cereal in a sample of 11 different servings.
Referring to Table 3-2, the five-number summary of the carbohydrate amounts consists
of ________, ________, ________, ________, ________.
