    To get my calculations for the GPAs of the students in the MBA program at Whatsamattu U. I created the ranges from 2.5 -4.0. They were split into 6 different ranges. They were 2.5-2.75, 2.75-3.0, 3.0-3.25, 3.25-3.50, 3.50-3.75, 3.75-4.0. I then counted the frequency of each value. The text states that “the frequency column counts the total occurrences of each value”, Mirabella (2011). I found 0 students in the 2.5-2.75 gpa range, 20 in the 2.75-3.0 range, 47 in the 3.0-3.25 range, 44 in the 3.25-3.5 range, 55 in the 3.5-3.75 range, and 34 in the 3.75-4.0 range. The frequencies added together gave me the total of 200. I know this is correct because that is the same amount of students I have in the sample. I then took the individual frequencies and divided them by the total number of students. This gave me my relative frequency. The relative frequency is the percentage of the students who have the same range in their gpa. As stated before there are no students with a gpa in the range of 2.5-2.75, so the numbers for that range, across the board will be 0. The relative frequency for the gpa range of 2.75-3.0 is 10%, 23.5% for 3.0-3.25, 3.25-3.50…

    Statistics have changed over the years, showing that now more women apply to college and stick with it. In the early days of coeducation the ratio of men and women on campus revealed that more men were attending college. Men nowadays don’t even apply for college, and the ones that do apply don’t stay long or they do poorly in school (909).…

    Each student’s genotype of +/+, +/-, and -/- were counted and put into a genotype frequency equation of to get a percentage. The Hardy-Weinberg equation was then used to determine the genotypes frequencies that were expected in a population at equilibrium. The class data was entered into the Allele Server database (http://www.bioservers.org) where a chi-square test was used to compare observed genotype frequencies with those predicted by the Hardy-Weinberg equation. The data was then compared to genotype frequencies in world populations, where the data were compared in pie charts and several comparisons were…

    You are the manager of a large firm. Lately complaints have surfaced that an increased number of incoming calls are being dropped or misrouted. Yesterday, as you walked by one older employee, you noticed that he was fiddling with his hearing aid and not paying attention to the phone. A call came in and only because you were there and intervened was the call answered. This particular phone operator had been reprimanded three months earlier for tardiness. Your instinct is to fire this phone rep or encourage him to retire (he is old enough). You also know that this gentleman is well liked within the company. Pose several hypotheses that might account for the dropped or misrouted calls. How would you test these hypotheses?…

    Previously a group of friends compared the average temperature for the 15 days in each of the 2004 and 2005 Christmas holiday pubic school vacations to determine which holiday was colder. Secondary research retrieved from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 's (NOAA) National Weather Service website provided climatic data on a daily basis for each day of the periods under investigation. Daily average temperature for each of the 15-day holiday vacation periods were gathered as two samples. The friends established a null hypothesis that the Christmas holiday vacation period of 2004 was colder than that of the 2005 Christmas holiday vacation period. After the completion of a five-step hypothesis test using a t-test, the null hypothesis was accepted. The acceptance of this null hypothesis led to further discussion on the comparison of the two periods.…

    A researcher predicts that watching a film on institutionalization will change students’ attitudes about chronically mentally ill patients. The researcher randomly selects 36 students, shows them the film, and gives them a questionnaire about their attitudes. The mean score on the questionnaire for these 36 students is 70. The score for people in general on this questionnaire is 75, with a standard deviation of 12. Using the five steps of hypothesis testing and the 5% significance level (i.e. alpha = .05), does showing the film change students’ attitudes towards the chronically mentally ill?…
