There are dozens of personality tests available. One test is designed to give an indication of how "personable" the test taker is, with higher scores indicating more "personability." Suppose that 17 classmates have taken this test and scored as follows. 59 , 66 , 53 , 78 , 63 , 69 , 52 , 64 , 82 , 73 , 65 , 70 , 77 , 58 , 68 , 73 , 67 Send data to calculator Send data to Excel Using the tool provided, construct a box-and-whisker plot (sometimes called a boxplot) for the data. 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 85 Personality test score

A policeman believes that less than 40% of older drivers speed on highways, but a confidential survey found that 49 out of 88 randomly selected older drivers admitted speeding on highways at least once. Do these data provide convincing evidence that the policeman was wrong? I need the answer in State, Plan, Do, Conclude. format please
A music professor offers his 40 students the option of coming to an additional rehearsal session theweek before their juries (musical final exams.) In order to decide whether these extra sessions actuallyhelp students, he keeps track of who attends them and compares their jury scores to those of students who did not schedule extra sessions. In this study, a difference was found between the scores of students who scheduled the extra sessions and those of students who didn't attend(higher average for students with extra sessions). Does this study give evidence that attending the review session leads to higher grades on their juries? A) Yes, becuase the study relied on a common final exam fro everyone B)No, because the students chose whether they attended the review session or not C) Yes becuase the study included both students who attned the review session and those who did not D)Yes, becuase the number of subjects in the study was large E)No, becuase the students in the study were not…
Twelve inmates in a particular prison took part in an anger management class. Before it began, the median score on an anger control assessment of the group was 42 (out of a maximum of 60). After the six month class, the participants scores on the same assessment were 35, 41, 40, 44, 57, 36, 39, 47, 58, 39, 42, 39. 1. Construct a boxplot of the data and explain briefly why a sign test is appropriate to use in this case
A study published in 2010 showed that city dwellers have a 21% higher risk of developing anxiety disorders and a 39% higher risk of developing mood disorders than those who live in the country. A follow-up study published in 2011 used brain scans of city dwellers and country dwellers as they took a difficult math test. To increase the stress of the participants, those conducting the study tried to humiliate the participants by telling them how poorly they were doing on the test. The brain scans showed very different levels of activity in stress centers of the brain, with the urban dwellers having greater brain activity than rural dwellers in areas that react to stress. In the 2011 study, what is the explanatory vari- able and what is the response variable? Indicate whether each is categorical or quantitative. Can we conclude from the 2011 study that living in a city increases activity in stress centers of the brain when a person is under stress?
A researcher is interested in whether a difference can occur between scores on one of the Maryland Addiction Questionnaire (MAQ) subtest, namely the Motivation for Continued Treatment (MOT) among inmates incarcerated for operating a vehicle Under the Influence(OUI). One group of subjects was assigned to a treatment facility for dealing with drug abuse issues, and the other group of 20 subjects continued in the main jail with no treatment being provided. The scores follow: Treatment group 47, 50, 41, 52, 48, 46, 50, 44, 60, 48, 46, 47, 41, 39, 58, 45, 62, 50, 39, 47 Non treated group 41, 45, 40, 40, 33, 41, 42, 43, 37, 33, 53, 40, 38, 43, 55, 31, 37, 53, 38, 40 Test the research hypothesis that there will be a difference between the two sets of scores (find the t score) Calculate a confidence interval at the .95 level for establishing the true population difference between the groups [find the CI(confidence interval)] Indicate the type of research and, if appropriate, the…
A Pew Research study conducted in 2017 found that approximately 75% of Americans believe that robots and computers might one day do many of the jobs currently done by people (Pew Research website, http://www.pewinternet.org/2017/10/04/americans-attitudes-toward-a-future-in-which-robots-and-computers-can-do-many-human-jobs/). Suppose we have the following data collected from nurses, tax auditors, and fast-food workers in which a higher score means the person feels his or her job is more likely to be automated.

Alcohol abuse has been described by college presidents as the number one problem on campus, and it is an important cause of death in young adults. How common is it? A survey of 119 randomly selected U.S. college students collected information on drinking behavior and alcohol-related problems. The researchers defined “frequent binge drinking” as having five or more drinks in a row three or more times in the past two weeks. According to this definition, 41 students were classified as frequent binge drinkers. Use the data to construct and interpret a 98% confidence interval for the percentage of students who are “frequent binge drinking”. Procedure: Assumptions: (select everything that applies) Population standard deviation is unknown Population standard deviation is known Sample size is greater than 30 Normal population The number of positive and negative responses are both greater than 10 Simple random sample Unknown parameter:
In 2013 students from a Statistics class at FSEV UK were asked to survey their friends who were 15-30 years old, in order to explore the interests of young people. The survey has a variety of questions, which are detailed in the Survey Key. For example, the column header “Music” is short for the question “I enjoy listening to music” and is rated 1-5, where 1 represents strongly disagree and 5 represents strongly agree. There is also some categorical data present as well. Survey participants record their gender, how often they smoke/drink, their internet usage, and education (just to name a few!). Please perform a hypothesis test based on one of the categorical variables and one survey question. For example, you could choose to prove the following: Survey participants who identify as an “only child” enjoy meeting new people (Survey score ). Here is an example: people who are right-handed (as identified in the data set) enjoy listening to music. Please be sure to use two columns…
A study in Boston schools questioned third graders to see if they felt stress in their school life. Out of 37 boys, 18 said they felt stress. While 16 out of 54 girls said they felt stress. Is this enough evidence to show that the boys and girls experience stress differently?
Fifteen students from Poppy High School were accepted at Branch University. Of those students, six were offered academic scholarships and nine were not. The newly accepted student ACT scores are shown here.Academic scholarship: 25, 24, 23, 21, 22, 20No academic scholarship: 23, 25, 30, 32, 29, 26, 27, 29, 27Part A: Do these data provide convincing evidence of a difference in ACT scores between students with and without an academic scholarship? Carry out an appropriate test at the α = 0.02 significance levelPart B: Create and interpret a 98% confidence interval for the difference in the ACT scores between students with and without an academic scholarship
A school district decided to measure the BMI of all 3rd graders and identify the highest 1% and lowest 1% of those students, and those students will be included in a follow up program. If Abby's BMI is converted to a z score of -2.18, would she be included in the program?
