Q.1. A teacher wishes to study the amount of time spent by students in his statistics course for each
week in study for the course. Teacher believes that the average should be the nominal 6 hours
(two hours outside class for every hour in class). So he has the students keep track of, and
report the time spent in study during a week. A total of 7 students respond. The average time
spent is 6.5 hours with a standard deviation of 2 hours. With this information he wishes to
perform a hypothesis test.
Identify the values for each of the following relevant variables. (If a value is not given, then
state "not given".) [1 + 1 + 1+ 1 + 1 = 5]
(a) μ (b) σ (c) n (d) X (e) s
Q.2 (a) It is believed that the precision (as measured by the variance) of an instrument is no more
than 0.16. Write down the null and alternative hypothesis for testing this belief. Carry out
the test at 1% level given 11 measurements of the same subject on the instrument (
Tabulated value at 1% level of significance is 24.725 for 11 d.f , 23.2 for 10 d.f and 21.66
for 9 d.f.)
2.5 2.3 2.4 2.3 2.5 2.7 2.5 2.6 2.6 2.7 2.5.
Q.2 (b) Set up the Hypothesis and state your conclusions [3 + 2 = 5]
Q.3 (a) Two researchers adopted different sampling techniques while investigating the same group
of students to find the number of students falling in different intelligence levels. The
results are as follows:

Q.6. In a partially destroyed laboratory, record of an analysis of correlation data, the following
results only are legible:
Variance of X=9 .Regression equations: 8X – 10 Y + 66 =0, 40 X – 18 Y =214.
What are: (a) the mean values X and Y, (b) the correlation coefficient between X and Y, and
(c) The standard deviation of Y? [2 + 2 + 1 = 5]
