试题本文:(考题有两种版本 以下附其中一份)
1.(5pts) What is the level of measurement (nominal, ordinal, interval or ratio)
for each of the following variables?
(a) The number of cups of coffee sold at Starbucks each Sunday during 2008.
(b) The courses offered by the department of statistics at NCCU (National
Chengchi University) during2006, such as statistics, calculus,
probability, etc.
(c) The monthly average temperatures at Taipei over the past 21 years.
(d) The ranking of NCCU in 2009 according to the QS World University Rankings.
2.(5pts) Suppose that we have a sample of scores with sample mean 60 and sample
standard deviation1. At least what percentage of the scores are between 56
and 64?
3.(5pts) Suppose that we have a sample of scores with sample mean 60 and sample
standard deviation1. Find a range that covers at least 70% of the scores
using Chebyshev's theorem.
4.(5pts) For a sample of size 1000 with minimum 0, maximum 1 and sample
standard deviation 0.1, determine the number of classes for drawing a
histogram using Scott's rule.
5.(5pts) Suppose that X is a random variable with CDF F, where
0 if x<1;
F(x) = { x/2 if 1<=x<=2;
1 if x>2.
Find P(X = 1) and P(X = 1.5). Note: you may use the graph of F to solve this
problem. The graph of F is given below.(省略图)
6.(5pts) During the past 34 years, Virgin Atlantic Airways experienced no air
accident in 23 years. Estimate the probability that Virgin Atlantic Airways
experiences no air accident in ove year. Which concept of probability
(classical or empirical probability) is used to make the estimate?
7.(5pts) A large company needs to hire a new president. There are 5 candidates
who are equally qualified. 3 of the candidates are female. Suppose that the
company decides to choose the president by lottery.
(a) What is the probability that one of the female candidate is selected?
(b) Which concept of probability did you use to obtain your answer for
Part (a)?
8.(5pts) Suppose that X is a discrete random variable with PMF px, where
0.2 if x=0;
px(x) = { 0.5 if x=1;
0.3 if x=4;
0 otherwise.
Find P(1.5 < X < 4.5).
9.(5pts) Suppose that X is a continuous random variable X has PDF f, where
0 if x<1;
f(x) = { 1/2 if 1<=x<=3;
0 if x>3.
The graph of f is given below.(省略图)
Find P(1.5 < X < 2.5) and P(X = 2.5).
10.(5pts) Suppose that we have a box of 1000 items, and 4 of them are defective.
Suppose that we randomly select two items one at a time with replacement.
For i = 1 or 2, let
Xi = { 1 if the i-th selected item is defective;
0 if the i-th selected item is not defective.
Find the PMF for X1 and the PMF for X2.
11.(5pts) A student is taking history and calculus. The probabilities that the
student will pass the two courses are 0.3 for history and 0.6 for calculus,
and the probability for passing both courses is 0.18. What is the probability
of passing at least one course?
12.(5pts) Suppose that we have a box of 1000 items, and 4 of them are defective.
Suppose that we randomly select two items one at a time without replacement.
Let A be the event that the first item is defective and B be the event that
the second item is defective. Find P(B) and P(B1A). Are A and B independent?
13.(5pts) Suppose that X is a discrete random variable with PMF px, where
0.1 if x=0;
px(x) = { 0.4 if x=1;
0.5 if x=2;
0 otherwise.
Find the mean and variance of X.
14.(5pts) Suppose that S is a population of 1000 scores. A summary for the
scores is given in the following table.
score frequency
0 100
1 400
2 500
Find the population mean and population variance for S.
15.(5pts) Suppose that Ms Yu goes fishing every weekend, and she catches 4
fishes in 2 hours on average. Suppose that she plans to spend 2 hours on
fishing this weekend. Let X be the nmber of fishes that she will catch this
weekend. Propose a distribution for X and find the probability that X >= 1
using the proposed distribution.
16.(5pts) A manufacturer of keys knows that 5% of the keys that they made are
defective. Suppose that we take a sample of 10 keys made by the manufacturer.
Find the probability that at least one key is defective.
17.(5pts) Suppose that X ~ U(0,1).
(a) What are E(X) and Var(X)?
(b) Find a lower bound for P(0.06 < X < 0.94) using Chebyshev's theorem.
