AP Statistics – Chapter 11: Practice Free Response Exam
AP Statistics – Chapter 11: Practice Free Response Exam - ANSWERS
1. SINGLE-SAMPLE t
a) Carry out a complete test to answer the questions posed.
Hypotheses: Ho: μ = 78.1 Ha: μ < 78.1
x-bar = 59.59 and s=6.255 so [pic]= -8.88 and p = .00001
Conclusion: Since the p-value is extremely low, we can conclude that the percent of nitrogen in the atmosphere during the Cretaceous era was significantly less than today.
b) Under what conditions is it acceptable to perform the test in part (a) on this data?
Since the sample size is so small, we would need a normal distribution. It is also very important that the data be collected in a random manner.
2. MATCHED-PAIRS t
a) Find a 95% confidence interval for the difference in fuel used (discount – name brand).
First compute the differences:
Car # |1 |2 |3 |4 |5 |6 |7 |8 |9 |10 | |Diff |-0.12 |-0.15 |0.35 |0.3 |0.04 |-0.36 |0.08 |0.12 |-0.14 |0.09 | |x-bar = .021 and s=.217, With df=9 and 95% confidence t*=2.262, so the interval is
[pic] = -.1342 to .1762
b) What does the interval suggest about mileage differences for the two fuel types?
They may be equal since 0 is in the interval. Since the interval is partly negative, it is also possible that the mileage with the discount gas is better.
3. TWO-SAMPLE t
.
Let μ1 = Nitrites, μ2 = Control, Hypotheses: Ho: μ1 = μ2 Ha: μ1 < μ2
Sample sizes are large enough that normality is not an issue. We also expect that the samples are chosen randomly.
[pic]= -.759 and p = .226
Conclusion: Since the p-value is not very low, we fail to reject the null hypothesis. It does not appear that nitrites can significantly reduce the amount of bacteria in meat.
