1 Name Period AP Statistics Unit 10 Review Use the following to answer questions 1 4: At what age do babies learn to crawl? Does it take longer for them to learn in the winter, when babies are often bundled in clothes that restrict their movements? Data were collected from parents who brought their babies into the University of Denver Infant Study Center to participate in one of a number of experiments. Parents reported the birth month and the age at which their child was first able to creep or crawl a distance of four feet within one minute. The resulting data were grouped by month of birth. The data below are for January, May, and September. (Crawling age is given in weeks.) Crawling Age Mean Std. Dev. n January Birth Month May September Assume that the data represent three independent SRSs, one from each of the three populations of interest (all babies born in a particular month), and that crawling ages are normally distributed for all three populations. A partial ANOVA table is given below. Source df Sums of Squares Mean Square F-ratio Birth month Error Total 1. What are the degrees of freedom for birth month (numerator)? A) 2 B) 3 C) 4 D) 94 E) What are the degrees of freedom for error (denominator)? A) 2 B) 3 C) 4 D) 94 E) The null hypothesis for the ANOVA F test is that the population mean crawling ages are equal for all three birth months. Which of the following is an appropriate alternative hypothesis? A) The population mean crawling age is larger for January than for the other two months. B) The population mean crawling age is larger for May than for the other two months. C) The three months all have different population mean crawling ages. D) The population mean crawling ages for the three months are all within one standard deviation of each other. E) The population mean crawling age is different for at least one of the three months. 4. Which of the following is the value of the ANOVA F test statistic for equality of the population means of the three birth months? A) 3.15 B) 3.42 C) 4.73 D) 6.30 E) 9.45
2 Use the following for questions 5 8: A high school teacher suspects that students of different ages estimate the ages of adults differently. He asks randomly-selected sophomores, juniors, and seniors to guess the age of a person in a photograph and plans to compare the mean age guesses using one-way analysis of variance. Here is the computer output from his analysis: Source DF SS MS F P School Year Error Total S = R-Sq = 24.17% R-Sq(adj) = 20.65% Individual 95% CIs For Mean Based on Pooled StDev Level N Mean StDev Senior ( * ) Junior ( * ) Sophomore ( * ) Pooled StDev = Which of the following is the appropriate null hypothesis for the ANOVA F-test in this situation? A) The population mean age guess for seniors is higher that the mean age guess for juniors and sophomores. B) The population mean age guesses for all three age groups are different. C) The population mean age guess for at least one age group is different from the others. D) The population mean age guesses for all three age groups are equal. E) The population mean age guesses for at least two of the three age groups are equal. 6. Which of the following statements about required conditions for the ANOVA F-test is correct in this situation? A) None of the three distributions of sample guesses should show signs of strong skew. B) As long as there are no outliers, the ANOVA test is appropriate. C) As long as two of the three distributions of sample guesses are close to Normally distributed, the test is robust with respect to strong skew in the third distribution. D) The shapes of the distributions of samples guesses don t matter, because the condition of equal sample standard deviations is violated. E) The shapes of the distributions of samples guesses don t matter, because the condition of independence has been violated, since the three grade levels were sampled from the same school. 7. Assuming all necessary conditions have been met, what is the appropriate conclusion for the ANOVA F test? A) Reject Ho. These data do not provide enough evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the true mean age guesses in the three age groups. B) Reject Ho. These data provide convincing evidence that there is a difference in the true mean age guesses in these three age groups. C) Accept Ha. These data provide convincing evidence that there is a difference in the true mean age guesses in these three age groups. D) Fail to reject Ho. These data do not provide enough evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the true mean age guesses in the three age groups. E) Fail to reject Ho. These data provide convincing evidence that there is a difference in the true mean age guesses in these three age groups.
3 8. Based on the numerical summaries in the computer output, which of the follow statement is true? A) All three samples have about the same range. B) The mean age guesses by seniors is closest to the person s actual age. C) There appears to be little difference between the age guesses of the three age groups. D) Age guesses by juniors are significantly higher than age guesses by sophomores. E) On average, the age guesses of seniors is much lower than that of the other two age groups. Use the following for questions 9 10: Below are three sets of parallel box plots, labeled Set A, Set B, and Set C. Each set of box plots describes the results of random samples of size n = 30 from three independent populations. Set A Set B Set C Group A1 Group B1 Group C1 Group A2 Group B2 Group C2 Group A3 Group B3 Group C Scores Scores Scores An ANOVA F test was performed on each set of samples to compare means. Assume conditions for performing the F test were met in each case. 9. Which one of the following statements is supported by these box plots? A) Set A has much larger within-group variation that either Set B or Set C. B) Set B has more between-group variation than Set C. C) Set C has much larger within-group variation than either Set A or Set B. D) Set B has the lowest between-group variation. E) Set A has much less between-group variation than Set C. 10. Which of the following describes the relationship between the F statistics for these three ANOVA tests? A) FSet A FSet C B) FSet A FSet C C) FSet B FSet A FSet C D) FSet C FSet A E) FSet C FSet A
4 11. Below is a partial computer output for simple linear regression of Fuel versus Car Weight. Predictor Coef SE Coef T P Constant weight S = R-Sq = 87.0% R-Sq(adj) = 86.3% Note that R-Sq is 87% for this regression, while R-Sq for the multiple regression model that included IndCyl and Weight*IndCyl is 92%. Which of the following is an appropriate interpretation of this information? A) The number of cylinders a car has accounts for 92% of variation in Fuel efficiency. B) The number of cylinders a car has accounts for 5% of variation in Fuel efficiency. C) A regression model that includes both Car weight and Number of cylinders accounts for 5% more of the variation in Fuel efficiency than one that includes only Car weight. D) A regression model that includes both Car weight and Number of cylinders accounts for 92% more of the variation in Fuel efficiency than one that includes only Car weight. E) On average, a six-cylinder car uses 5% more fuel than a four-cylinder car.

5 Sunyan s favorite exercise machine is a stair climber. He can adjust the resistance level of the machine on a 1 to 10 scale but he has discovered that the number of simulated floors the machine says he has climbed at any given level varies from session to session. Sunyan decides to explore the relationship between the machine s resistance level and the number of floors climbed for workouts of two durations 20 minutes and 30 minutes. For each time length, he records the number of floors climbed at six different resistance levels. A scatterplot for number of floors versus resistance level reveals two linear relationships with equal slopes, one for each workout length. Output from a regression analysis of Sunyan s data is given below. The indicator variable Time takes value 0 for 20-minute workouts and 1 for 30-minute workouts. Predictor Coef SE Coef T P Constant Level Time S = R-Sq = 99.0% R-Sq(adj) = 98.8% 14. On average, what is the predicted increase in number of floors climbed for a one-unit increase in resistance level? A) B) C) D) E) The answer depends on the length of the workout and can t be determined from the information given. Based on a sample of the salaries of professors at a major university, you have performed a multiple regression relating salary to years of service and gender. The estimated multiple linear regression model is Salary = $ $3000(Years) + $4000(Gender) + $1000[(Years)(Gender)], where Gender = 1 if the professor is male and Gender = 0 if the professor is female. 15. Using this model, which of the following is the predicted difference in the salaries of a male professor with three years of service and a female professor with three years of service? A) $3000 B) $4000 C) $5000 D) $7000 E) $9000
6 Use the following for questions To what extent can we predict the fuel efficiency of passenger cars on the basis of their weight and the number of cylinders the engine has? Below is computer output for a regression analysis of 20 randomly-selected late-model family sedans.
