\[ 12, 15, 18, 22, 18, 16, 20, 18 \]
2. The heights (in inches) of a group of students are: 63, 65, 68, 70, 72. Find the range and
standard devia/on.
3. A sample of 25 students scored the following on a test: \[ 85, 90, 88, 92, 78, 95, 87, 89, 82,
94, 88, 91, 79, 86, 93, 84, 90, 92, 88, 87, 89, 83, 96, 85, 88 \] Calculate the sample variance.
4. The monthly salaries (in dollars) of a group of employees are: \[ 4000, 4200, 3800, 4500, 4100
\] Calculate the mean and standard devia/on.
5. If a dataset has a skewness of -0.5, what does this indicate about the distribu/on?
**Page 2: Probability**
1. If P(A) = 0.4 and P(B) = 0.3, what is the probability of both events A and B occurring if they are
independent?
2. A standard six-sided die is rolled. Find the probability of rolling an even number.
4. A bag contains 5 red balls, 3 blue balls, and 2 green balls. If one ball is drawn at random, what
is the probability that it is not red?
5. Two cards are drawn without replacement from a standard deck of cards. What is the
probability that both cards are kings?
**Solu/ons for Page 2:**
1. A company claims that the average /me to resolve a customer complaint is less than 24
hours. Conduct a one-sample t-test with a significance level of 0.05 using a sample of 30
customer complaints with a mean resolu/on /me of 22 hours and a standard devia/on of 4
hours.
2. A study is conducted to test whether there is a significant difference in the test scores of two
groups of students. Conduct an independent samples t-test with a significance level of 0.01.
Group 1 has a mean score of 75 with a standard devia/on of 8 (n=25), and Group 2 has a mean
score of 80 with a standard devia/on of 7 (n=30).
1. **Hypothesis:** \(H_0: \mu \geq 24, \, H_1: \mu < 24\). Result: Reject \(H_0\).
2. **Hypothesis:** \(H_0: \mu_1 = \mu_2, \, H_1: \mu_1 \neq \mu_2\). Result: Fail to reject
\(H_0\).
4. **Hypothesis:** \(H_0: \rho = 0, \, H_1: \rho \neq 0\). Result: Correla/on is significant.
5. **Hypothesis:** \(H_0: p \geq 0.05, \, H_1: p < 0.05\). Result: Reject \(H_0\), conclude that
the propor/on of defec/ve products is less than 5%.
