Study Notes
Example 2.3
- The example demonstrates calculating Karl Pearson's coefficient of correlation using a table of production data for a sugar factory over several years.
- The table lists year, production, and calculated values for x2, y2, and xy for each year.
- The formula for calculating the correlation coefficient is provided, but the actual calculations are not shown.
Example 2.7
- The example demonstrates calculating Spearman's rank correlation coefficient using a table of marks obtained by 9 students in two subjects: OS and DS.
- The table lists the marks in each subject, the rank for each student in each subject, the difference between the ranks (d), and the square of the difference (d2).
- The formula for calculating the Spearman's rank correlation coefficient is provided, but the actual calculations are not shown.
Example 2.13
- The example demonstrates computing a quadratic regression equation using a table of data points with corresponding x and y values.
- The table includes x, y, x2, x3, x4, xy, and x2y for each data point.
- Three equations are derived to solve for the coefficients a0, a1, and a2 in the quadratic regression equation.
- The simultaneous equations for a0 and a2 are solved, and the solution for a1 is derived from a separate equation.
- The final quadratic regression equation is presented in the form y = a2x2 + a1x + a0.
Example 3.4
- The example demonstrates calculating the probability of drawing exactly two defective chips from a box containing 15 chips, 5 of which are defective.
- The sample space (S) is defined as drawing 3 chips randomly from the box.
- The event A is defined as drawing 3 chips where exactly 2 are defective.
- The probability of event A is calculated using the formula: P(A) = (n(A)) / (n(S)).
Example 3.5
- The example involves a horse race with 5 horses and a person (X) who bets on two horses chosen randomly.
- The example does not include the calculations for determining the probabilities.
Example 4.15
- The example describes a continuous random variable X with a probability density function (p.d.f.).
- The p.d.f. is defined by the function: f(x) = ax, for 0 ≤ x ≤ 2.
- The problem asks for determining the constant 'a', computing P(X < 1.5), and finding P(1.5 < X < 2.5).
Example 5.1
- The example asks for the probability of the following events when rolling a die three times:
- No fives turning up
- One five turning up
- Three fives turning up
- The example does not include the calculations for determining the probabilities.
