Q. 8 A random sample of 500 'pineapples was taken from a large consignment and 65 were
found to be bad. Show that the S.E. of the proportion of bad ones in a sample of this size is 0·015
and deduce that the percentage of bad pineapples in the consignment almost certainly lies
between 8·5 and 17·5.
Ans: 0·085, 0·175

be bad. Obtain the 98% confidence limits for lrt. Percentage number of bad app (in the
consignment.
Ans: 0.08615, 0·15385

Q.10 twenty people were attacked by a disease and only 18 survived. Will you reject the
hypothesis that the survival rate, if attacked by this disease, is 85% in favour of the hypothesis
that it is more, at 5% level? (lise Large Sample Test.~)
Ans. Z = 0·633

Q.11 In two large populations there are 30% and 25% respectively of fair haired people, Is this
difference likely to be hidden in sample of 1200 and 900 respectively from the population?
Ans:z=2.55

Q.12 Samples of students were drown from two universities and from their weights in kilograms,
mean and standard deviations are calculated and shown below, make a large sample test the
significance of the difference between the means
Mean S.D. Size of Sample
University A 55 10 400
University B 57 15 100
Ans:z=1.26
Q.13 In a random sample of 400 persons from a large population, 120 are female, can it be said
that males and females are in the same ratio 5:3 in the population? Use 1% level of population.
Ans:z=3.125
Q.14 A company has the head office at Calcutta and a branch at Bombay. The personnel director
wanted to know if the workers at the two places' would like the introduction of a new plan of
work and a survey ~as conducted for this purpose. Out of a sample of 500 workers at Calcutta.
62% favoured the new plan. At Bombay out of a sample of 400 workers, 41% were against the
new plan. Is there any significant difference the two groups in their attitude towards the new plan
at 5% level?
Ans: 0-917

Q.15 In a survey of buying habits. 400 women shoppers are chosen at random in super market 'A'
located in a certain section of the city. Their average weekly food expenditure is Rs. 250 with a
standard deviation of Rs. 40. For 400 women shoppers chosen at random in super market 'B' in
another section of the city. the average weekly food expenditure is Rs. 220 with a standard
deviation of Rs. 55. Test at 1% level of significance whether the average weekly food
expenditure of the two populations of shoppers are equal.
Ans: 8·82 (approx.)

Q: 16 A random sample of size 120 bulbs is taken from a lot which gives the standard deviation
of the life of electric bulbs 7 hours. Test the standard deviation of the life of bulbs of the lot is 6
hours at 5% level of significance.

Q:17 Two sources of raw materials of bulbs are under consideration by a bulb manufacturing
company. Both sources seem to have similar characteristics but the company is not sure about
their respective uniformity. A sample of 52 lots from source A yields variance 25 and a sample
of 40 lots from source B yields variance of 12. Test whether the variance of source A
significantly differs to the variances of source B at 5% Level of Significance?
