2 Q: Differentiate between Qualitative and Quantitative Variables. A variable whose characteristics can be easured nuerically is called Quantitative Variable for exaple age, weight, incoe or nuber of children. A variable whose characteristics cannot be easured nuerically is called Qualitative Variable for exaple gender, education, intelligence or eye-color. Q: Differentiate between Priary data and Secondary data. Data that have been originally collected (raw data) and have not undergone any statistical treatent are called Priary data. Data that have undergone any statistical treatent at least once i.e. the data have been collected, classified, tabulated or presented in soe for for a certain purpose are called Secondary data. Q: Define Multiple Bar Chart. A ultiple bar chart consists of two or ore characteristics corresponding to the values of the coon variable in for of grouped bars, whose lengths are proportional to the values where each bar is shaded with different colors to show their identification. Q4: Arrange the data given below in an array and construct a frequency distribution, using a class interval of, nuber of classes is 5 and the sallest observation is 09.

The saple ean is an unbiased estiator of the population ean i.e. E 7) What is eant by confidence interval? Solution A range of values used to estiate a population paraeter is known as interval estiation or estiation by confidence interval and the interval (a, b) that will include the population paraeter with a high probability (e.g or 0.99) is known as confidence interval. 8) Students fro school A and B are copared on the basis of their scores on an aptitude test. Two rando saples of 90 and 00 students are selected fro school A and B respectively. The saple eans are 76.4 and 8., where as the saple standard deviation is 8. and 7.6 respectively. Establish a 98% confidence interval for the difference in population ean scores between students A and B. Solution

29 Let the population ean scores of students of Schools A and B be denoted by respectively. Fro the saple data we have and n 90, n 00, 76.4, 8., S 8., S 7.6. With - =0.98, we have /=0.0 and z or or 7.48,. 0.0 Thus a 98% confidence interval for is S S z0.0 n n ) If the standard deviation of the life ties of television tubes is estiated as 00 hours, how large a saple ust we take in order to be 95% confident that the error in the estiated ean life tie will not exceed 0 hours? Solution Here =00, the error, e=0 and z corresponding to the given probability is.96 Z / n = e n Hence the required saple size would be 97 0) Define one tailed and two tailed tests. Solution When the null hypothesis is tested against an alternative hypothesis of a greater than or a less than type the critical region is located on one end and the test is called a one tailed or one sided test. When the null hypothesis is tested against an alternative hypothesis of a not equal to type, the critical is located on both ends and test is called a two tailed or two sided test. Lecture No 8 to 9 Multiple Choice Questions: (Saple questions). If a significance level of 5% is used rather than %, the null hypothesis is: a) Less likely to be rejected

The pooled proportion P c is given by Pˆ c n n Q: If 50, n 60and p0 0.50, then find the z-test statistic for proportion. Test statistic: Z (where n p 0 p ½ denotes the continuity correction) Here np = =5. and = 50 n p Hence < np so use + ½ Z (0.50) Z Q4: A saple of 00 electric light bulbs of type I showed a ean lifetie of 90 hours and a standard deviation of 90 hours. A saple of 75 bulbs of type II showed a ean of 0 hours with a standard deviation of 0 hours. Is there a difference between the ean lifeties of two types at a significant level of 5%?
