ASSIGNMENT 4

1. Students who are taking probability and statistics course are expected to be able
to understand the course delivered in English. Moreover, Probability and Statistics
takes Calculus I as the pre-requisite course. Thus, all in all, students are really
expected to understand basic mathematics and English in order to be successful in
this course. By taking this information into account, you are expected to analyse:
are grades in Calculus I and English related? Use level significance of 0,05.

Instruction:
a. Collect your data to complete the table. The total for your data must be at least
60 students of Mechanical Engineering 2017.
b. Answer the problem mentioned on the case.

2. A mathematics placement test is given to all entering freshmen at a small college.

A student who receives a grade below 35 is denied admission to the regular
mathematics course and placed in a remedial class. The placement test scores and
the final grades for 20 students who took the regular course were recorded.

3. Mechanical Engineering lecturer is wondering whether all students of Mechanical

Engineering Department have the same input level (in average score) in
mathematics. Please collect their mathematic scores on their National Exam during
High School (UN). Is there any evidence to support the lecturer’s statement above?
Use level of significance 0.01 and data are assumed not normal.
