Question: Problem Statement The major aims of this module are twofold: 1. to learn techniques for working in a team to produce some tangible outcome 2. to learn techniques for investigating computer science problems. Toward that end, you will work in groups of five (5) to pose and answer a research question, using a dataset of your choosing selected from a specified set of candidates. You will be required to use specific tools to achieve th...
About the LabThe focus of this lab is on Pearson correlation and linear multiple regression analyses. There are two SPSS datasets associated with this lab that you will need to access. Both of them are available on the UR courses website. For questions 1-2, use the dataset on UR courses with the title “Correlation.” 1. Here is the research question: Is there a relationship between group integration (task and social), perf...
Part 1: Financial Tools and FunctionsMidwest Copper Linda Rubin is a project analyst at Midwest Copper, a mining company in northern Minnesota. The company is considering investing in a copper mine near Spirit River. Linda wants you to help develop a financial workbook that analyzes the cost of opening the mine, running it for 25 years, and then cleaning up the mine site after its useful life is over. Complete the following. 1. Go to the Pr...

Multiple Choice 1.The Central Limit Theorem is important in statistics because _____.(A)for a large n, it says the sampling distribution of the sample mean is approximately normal,regardless of the distribution of the population(B)for any population, it says the sampling distribution of the sample mean is approximatelynormal, regardless of the sample size (C)for a large n, it says the population is approximately ...
1. Hypothesis Testing 1.For each of the following statements, circle the letter “T” if it is true, and “F” if it is false. T F (a) When the p-value is < α we reject H0. T F (b) A binomial variable is constructed from 50 trials where the probability of success in each trial is 0.99. The normal approximation t...

Assessing the Distribution of Three VariablesIn this assignment, you will characterize three variables in the ISLR College data set to determine whether the normal approximation is appropriate for that variable. You will need to load the ISLR package as well as MASS and stats. 1.Assess the distribution of the three variables (Accept, Grad.Rate, and PhD) and determine if the normal approximation is appropriate for their analysis. a.Plot a his...

Introduction and problem background Crescent Oil has developed three new blends of gasoline – Blend X, Blend Y and Blend Z, and must decide which blend or blends to produce and distribute. A study of the miles per gallon ratings of the three blends is being conducted to determine if the mean ratings are the same for the three blends. Five automobiles- 1, 2 3, 4 and 5, have been tested using each of the three gasoline blends and t...

Why statistics are importantTask: It is beneficial to know and use statistics. Statistics are everywhere. Think about the news stories you have heard or read today. How many of them referenced statistical results? Did you understand the meaning or context of that statistic? It is easy to accept the statistics that you hear in the news. You might become more skeptical of a statistic, however, if you need it to make a decision that impacts you or...
