1. In a taste test conducted at RDE grocery Mart, 200 people were asked to taste 5 different
flavors of new tetra pack juice drinks and to report which one they preferred. The results
are listed below:
Flavor Frequency
Pineapple 50
Grapes 27
Orange 70
Mango 40

Strawberry 13

1.2. What flavor is preferred by most drinkers?


Based on the chart, the most preferred drink is the Orange flavor.
1.3. What flavor is the least preferred by juice drinkers?
The least preferred drink is the Strawberry
1.4. What do the chart tell you about the sample of juice drinkers?
It tells us that aside from their the most preferred flavor (orange) and the least
choice (strawberry) There is still other consumers who buys pineapple flavor
(50), mango (40), and grapes (27).
1.5. If you were the owner of that grocery mart, what would be the
significance of the taste test results?
If I would be the owner there should be improvement to be done on the
market strategy or taste production for strawberry flavored juice to make the
drinkers buy the product.
2. Consider the scores obtained by 20 students in their graduate school statistics

examination.

Student Score Student Score Student Score Student Score

A 81 F 79 K 90 P 94

B 90 G 80 L 90 Q 97

C 78 H 81 M 90 R 73

D 65 I 74 N 88 S 72

E 85 J 75 O 76 T 69

Calculate the following: (Using descriptive statistics in excel we obtain the following
results)

2.1. Mean
x̄ = 81.35
2.2. Median
Median = 80.5
2.3. Mode
Mode = 90
2.4. Standard Deviation
𝑠 = 8.82

2.5. Variance
𝑠 2 = 77.92

3. According to the Civil Code of the Philippines, the marriageable age of Filipinos is 18. A
researcher found out that the average age of Filipinos who got married is 23 years old. A
random sample of 29 married couples were taken and found out to have an average age of
21 with a standard deviation of 1.23. the tabular value of t at 1% level of significance with
df of 28 is ±2.467.
Find the following:
a. State the null and alternative hypotheses and identify the claim.
Ho: μ = 23 (There is no significant difference between the population mean and
the sample data)
Ha: μ ≠ 23 (There is a significant difference between the population mean and
the sample data)
b. Compute the t-Test value using the one sample mean test.
Given: μ = 23 , x̄ = 21, n=29, s=1.23
The formula for computing t-Test value:
x̄ − μ
𝑡=
s/√n
Solution
x̄ − μ (21 − 23)
𝑡= = = −8.75636554 ≈ −8.76
s/√n 1.23/√29

c. Make conclusion whether to reject or failed to reject the null hypothesis.


Support your answer.
Our data shows -8.76 < ±2.467, hence we reject Ho, which falls under
rejection region in our curve below

-8.76 -2.467 +2.467


d. Make decision, is there a reason to believe that the sample is significantly
younger than the others in getting married at 1% level of significance?
Since we rejected the null hypothesis, this indicates that there is
enough reason to believe that the sample data is significantly younger than
the others.

4. Solve for the coefficient of correlation using Pearson r formula. Ten students were given
tests in Math and English. The results are shown below:

Formula (manual computation)
For excel (we input =Pearson (Array of first Variable; Array of Second Variable)

The value of our Pearson r correlation is 0.54 which indicates positive moderate
correlation.

5. From the data obtained in the study of the number of absences and the final grade of
the seven students in the statistics class given below:
Student Number of Final
absences Grade
(x) (y) %

A 6 82

B 2 86

C 15 43

D 9 74

E 12 58

F 5 90

G 8 78

a. Find the equation of the regression line or (regression model) for


the given data above.
Using the scatter plot chart in Excel we obtain the following graph.

Number of absenses

The equation of the linear regression is 𝒚 = −𝟑. 𝟔𝟐𝟏𝟗𝒙 + 𝟏𝟎𝟐. 𝟒𝟗

c. Predict the grade (y) if the absences (x) is 4.


Using the equation above we substitute x=4
𝒚 = −𝟑. 𝟔𝟐𝟏𝟗(𝟒) + 𝟏𝟎𝟐. 𝟒𝟗 = 𝟖𝟖. 𝟎𝟎𝟐𝟒 ≈ 𝟖𝟖
The grade is approximately equal to 88 when the number of
absences is equal to 4
