Answer:

The standard deviation for the distribution of girths is

about the same for both male and female pigs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

We will interprete the dotplots

For the Male pigs

24, 26, 26, 26, 26, 26, 26, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 30, 30, 30, 30, 30, 30, 32

Range

Maximum value - Minimum value

= 32 - 24

= 8

IQR = Interquartile range = Q3 - Q1

Q1 formula = 1/4(n + 1)th

=n = 25

= 1/4(25 + 1)

= 1/4(26)

= 26/4

= 6.5

This mean the value is between the 6th and 7th value

6th value = 26

7th value = 26

Q1 = 26 + 26/2

Q1 = 26

Q3 formula = 3/4(n + 1)th

=n = 25

= 3/4(25 + 1)

= 3/4(26)

= 78/4

= 19.5

This mean the value is between the 19th and 20th value

19th value = 30

20th value = 30

Q3= 30+ 30/2

= 30

IQR = 30 - 26

= 4

Standard deviation

Mean

First we find the mean

= 24+ 26+26+ 26+ 26+ 26+26+28+ 28+ 28+ 28+28+ 28+ 28+28+ 28+28+28+30+ 30+30+ 30+30+30+32/28

= 700/25

= 28

Standard deviation Formula = √(x - mean)²/n - 1

= √[(24-28)² + (26- 28)² + (26 -28)² + (26 - 28)² +................ (32 - 28)²]/25 - 1

= √(16 + 4 + 4+ 4+ 4+4+ 4+0+ 0+ 0+ 0+0+ 0+ 0+ 0+0+0+0+ 4+ 4+4+4+4+ 4+ 16)/25 - 1

= √80/25 - 1

=√3.333333333

Female Pigs

21, 23, 23, 23,23,23,23,25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25,25, 27, 27, 27, 27,27, 27, 29

Range:

Maximum value - Minimum value

= 29 - 21

IQR

IQR = Interquartile range = Q3 - Q1

Q1 formula = 1/4(n + 1)th

=n = 25

= 1/4(25 + 1)

= 1/4(26)

= 26/4

= 6.5

This mean the value is between the 6th and 7th value

6th value = 23

7th value = 23

Q1 = 23 + 23/2

Q1 = 23

Q3 formula = 3/4(n + 1)th

=n = 25

= 3/4(25 + 1)

= 3/4(26)

= 78/4

= 19.5

This mean the value is between the 19th and 20th value

19th value = 27

20th value = 27

Q3= 27+ 27/2

Q3 = 27

IQR = 27 - 23

= 4

First we find the Mean

=(21+23+23+23+23+23+23+25+ 25+ 25+ 25+25+ 25+ 25+ 25+25+25+25+27+27+ 27+27+27+ 27+29)/25

= 625/25

= 25

Standard deviation Formula = √(x - mean)²/n - 1

= √[(21-25)² + (23- 25)² + (23 -25)² + (23 - 25)² +................ (29 - 25)²]/25 - 1

= √(16 + 4 + 4+ 4+ 4+4+ 4+0+ 0+ 0+ 0+0+ 0+ 0+ 0+0+0+0+ 4+ 4+4+4+4+ 4+ 16)/25 - 1

= √80/25 - 1

=√3.333333333

1.825741858

Looking at the calculation above and comparing both the girths from the male and female

We can conclude that: The standard deviation for the distribution of girths is

about the same for both male and female pigs which is 1.825741858

What is the r-value of the following data to three decimal places?

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that two variables in table as

Total Average

x 2 6 7 8 12 35 7

y 15 13 9 8 5 50 10

xy 30 78 63 64 60 295 59

(x-7)^2 25 1 0 1 25 52 10.4

(y-10)^2 25 9 1 4 25 64 12.8

Var x = 10.4 and std dev x = 3.225

Var Y = 12.8 and std dev Y = 3.578

Cov (xy) = E(xy)-E(x) E(Y)=59-70=-11

Correlation coefficient r

= Cov /sx sy = -11/(3.225)(3.578)=-0.9532

Round off to get

r=-0.953

Henceoption B is right.

What is the concentration of a new solution obtained by mixing 25ml of water with 125ml of a 20% salt solution in water?

expeople1 [14]

Given that the concentration of salt in a 125 ml of salt solution is 20%, this means that the ratio of salt to water in the solution is 20 : 80 = 1 : 4.

Thus, the amount of salt in the 125 ml 20% salt solution is given by 20% of 125 = 0.2 x 125 = 25ml and the amount of water in the 125ml 20% salt solution is 125 - 25 = 100 ml.

When 25 ml of water is added to the 125 ml 20% salt solution, the new amount of water is 100 + 25 =125 and the amount of salt remain 25 ml.

Thus, the new volume of the solution is 125 + 25 = 150 ml and the proprtion of salt in the new solution is given by 25 / 150 = 0.1667

Therefore, the concentration of a new solution <span>obtained by mixing 25ml of water with 125ml of a 20% salt solution in water is 16.67%</span>

The following are the hypotheses for a test of the claim that college graduation statue and cola preference are independent. H0:

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

$\chi^2 = 0.579$

And the critical value for the significance level used is:

$\chi^2_{crit}= 5.991$

Since the calculated value is less than the critical value we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the College graduation status and cola preference are independent

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we want to test the following hypothesis:

Null hypothesis: College graduation status and cola preference are independent

Alternative hypothesis: College graduation status and cola preference are dependent

For this case we got a calculated statistic of:

$\chi^2 = 0.579$

And the critical value for the significance level used is:

$\chi^2_{crit}= 5.991$
