Q1:Instructions Part A: You will find an excel sheet attached. Ch1 homework data set.xlsx A survey asked three questions to pet owners: 1. How many pets do you own? 2. Do you like cats, dog, or neither cats nor dogs the best? 3. How much time in hours does your pet(s) stay home on average per day? Create an appropriate graph for each question using Minitab. Identify what type of data is obtained from each question (qualitative, quantitative discrete, or quantitative continuous). Use one pie chart, one bar graph and one histogram. Copy the graphs to a word file and indicate which type of data near the graph. You can copy graphs from Minitab and then paste them into a word document and then you will be able to write in the type of data that each is. Note: Histograms are good for continuous data because the bars do not have spaces between them, and continuous data does not have jumps between numbers. Part B:See Answer
Q2:Part B: Visit the Infographics Site for Statistics Canada at https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/11-627-m/index-eng.htm Find a poster (scroll down) that is on a topic that interests you and that contains a pie graph. Be sure you can answer the questions below by looking at your pie graph. 1. Copy the pie graph from the poster and add it to your word document. 2. Pie graphs usually show percentages and should add up to 100%. Does your pie graph add to 100%? If it doesn't, why not? 3. What would have been the question that was asked to gather the data displayed on your pie graph? Remember that the question is usually qualitative. Your written response should be submitted as a pdf file.See Answer
Q3:1. DETAILS DEVORESTAT9 8.3.035.S. MY NOTES The article "Uncertainty Estimation in Railway Track Life-Cycle Cost"+ presented the following data on time to repair (min) a rail break in the high rail on a curved track of a certain railway line. 159 120 480 149 270 547 340 43 228 202 240 218 A normal probability plot of the data shows a reasonably linear pattern, so it is plausible that the population distribution of repair time is at least approximately normal. The sample mean and standard deviation are 249.7 and 145.1, respectively. (a) Is there compelling evidence for concluding that true average repair time exceeds 200 min?

Q5:3. Submit Answer DEVORESTAT9 9.1.005. DETAILS Persons having Raynaud's syndrome are apt to suffer a sudden impairment of blood qrculation in fingers and toes. In an experiment to study the extent of this impairment, each subject immersed a forefinger in water and the resulting heat output (cal/cm2/min) was measured. For m = 8 subjects with the syndrome, the average heat output was - 0.65, and for n=8 nonsufferers, the average output was 2.01. Let #, and , denote the true average heat outputs for the sufferers and nonsufferers, respectively. Assume that the two distributions of heat output are normal with o,-0.1 and %₂=0.3.

Q6:DETAILS DEVORESTAT9 9.2.028.5. As the population ages, there is increasing concern about accident-related injuries to the elderly. An article reported on an experiment in which the maximum lean angle-the farthest a subject is able to lean and still recover in one step-was determined for both a sample of younger females (21-29 years) and a sample of older females (67-81 years). The following observations are consistent with summary data given in the article: YF: 29, 35, 31, 27, 28, 32, 31, 34, 32, 29 OF: 19, 15, 21, 13, 12 Does the data suggest that true average maximum lean angle for older females (OF) is more than 10 degrees smaller than it is for younger females (YF)?

Q9:Question 1 The editor of a UK college magazine is checking the latest edition of the magazine before it goes to print, but they have found some problems. (a) Three stories each have a piece of data missing. The topics of the three stories are: Story 1: A science project to find the fastest reaction time when mixing certain chemicals. Story 2: An interview with the winner of the inter-collegiate 1500 metre race. Story 3: The results of a survey to find the average time it took students to travel from their home to the entrance of the college campus. The three pieces of data are: A: 5 minutes 33 seconds B: 42 minutes C: 31.4567 seconds Match each story with the most appropriate piece of data, justifying your answer. (b) A story about the campus shop says that students spend on average £4.5682351 per visit. The editor rightfully thinks that this level of accuracy is unjustified. Round £4.5682351 to an appropriate level of accuracy, justifying your answer. (c) The word counts for the main articles in the latest magazine edition are: 220, 470, 1300, 250, 1100, 540, 380, 670.
