Guidelines:
1. An assignment submission is considered complete only when the correct and executable
code(s) is submitted along with the documentation explaining the method and results.
Failing to submit either of those will be considered an invalid submission and will not be
considered a correct submission.
2. Ensure that you submit your assignments correctly. Resubmission is not allowed.
3. Post the submission you can evaluate your work by referring to the keys provided. (will
be available only post the submission).
Make a table as shown above and provide information about the features such as its data
type and its relevance to the model building. And if not relevant, provide reasons and a
description of the feature.
Problem Statements:
Q1) Calculate Mean, and Standard Deviation using Python code & draw inferences on the
following data. Refer to the Datasets attachment for the data file.
Hint: [Insights drawn from the data such as data is normally distributed/not, outliers, measures
like mean, median, mode, variance, std. deviation]
a. Car’s speed and distance
By seeing the above plot, we can say that speed is slightly negatively
skewed and whereas distance is positively skewed.
Speed can be said platykurtic and dist is strongly leptokurtic
By the above Histogram we can say that the data is not symmetrically
distributed.
We can say that the speed is positively skewed as most of the data is
on the left side, whereas weight is slightly negatively skewed
from above plot we can say that mean of marks of student is 41 which is slightly
greater than median.
Most of the students got marks in between 41-42, there are two outlier 49,56.
Q3) Three Coins are tossed, find the probability that two heads and one tail are obtained.
ANS) When three coins are tossed the total number of possible combinations are 2 3 = 8.
These combinations are HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, TTH, THT, HTT, TTT. The number of
combinations which have two heads and one tail are: HHT, HTH, TTH which makes them 3 in
number. The Probability of getting two heads and one tails in the toss of three coins
simultaneously is 3/8 or 0.375.
Q4) Two Dice are rolled, find the probability that the sum is
a) Equal to 1
b) Less than or equal to 4
c) Sum is divisible by 2 and 3
ANS) total possible outcome =62=36=62=36
a) favourable outcome (sum equal to 1) = 0 {i.e., not possible that sum always exceed to 1
Required probability=0/36 =0
b) favourable outcome (sum equal to 4) = 3 {i.e. (1,3)(2,2)(3,1)}
required probability =3/36 =1/12
c) favorable outcome (sum divisible by 2 and 3) =6
required outcome=6/36=1/6
Q6) Calculate the Expected number of candies for a randomly selected child:
Below are the probabilities of the count of candies for children (ignoring the nature of the child-
Generalized view)
i. Child A – the probability of having 1 candy is 0.015.
ii. Child B – the probability of having 4 candies is 0.2.
Q7) Calculate Mean, Median, Mode, Variance, Standard Deviation, and Range & comment
about the values / draw inferences, for the given dataset.
- For Points, Score, Weigh>
Find Mean, Median, Mode, Variance, Standard Deviation, and Range and comment on the
values/ Draw some inferences.
Dataset: Refer to Hands-on Material in LMS - Data Types EDA assignment snapshot of the
dataset is given above.
ANS) Mean=33.27133333333333
Std= 16.945400921222028
Variance=287.1466123809524
Q10) AT&T was running commercials in 1990 aimed at luring back customers who had
switched to one of the other long-distance phone service providers. One such commercial shows
a businessman trying to reach Phoenix and mistakenly getting Fiji, where a half-naked native on
a beach responds incomprehensibly in Polynesian. When asked about this advertisement, AT&T
admitted that the portrayed incident did not actually take place but added that this was an
enactment of something that “could happen.” Suppose that one in 200 long-distance telephone
calls is misdirected.
What is the probability that at least one in five attempted telephone calls reaches the wrong
number? (Assume independence of attempts.)
Hint: [Using the Probability formula evaluate the probability of one call being wrong out of five
attempted calls]
ANS) IF 1 in 200 long-distance telephone calls are getting misdirected.
probability of call misdirecting = 1/200 Probability of call not Misdirecting = 1-1/200 = 199/200
The probability for at least one in five attempted telephone calls reaches the wrong number
Number of Calls = 5 n = 5 p = 1/200 q = 199/200 P(x) = at least one in five attempted telephone
calls reaches the wrong number P(x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ qⁿ⁻ˣ P(x) = (nCx) (p^x) (q^n-x) # nCr = n! / r! * (n -
r)! P(1) = (5C1) (1/200)^1 (199/200)^5-1 P(1) = 0.0245037
Q11) Returns on a certain business venture, to the nearest $1,000, are known to follow the
following probability distribution.
X P(x)
-2,000 0.1
-1,000 0.1
1000 0.2
2000 0.3
3000 0.1
(i) What is the most likely monetary outcome of the business venture?
Hint: [The outcome is most likely the expected returns of the venture]
(iii) What is the long-term average earning of business ventures of this kind? Explain.
Hint: [Here, the expected return to the venture is considered as the
required average]
(iv) What is a good measure of the risk involved in a venture of this kind? Compute
this measure.
Hint: [Risk here stems from the possible variability in the expected returns,
therefore, name the risk measure for this venture]
ANS)
(i) most likely monetary outcome of the business venture is $ 2000 as it has maximum
Probability 0.3
(ii) Venture is successful if X is + ve hence if X is 1000 , 2000 or 3000 probability is 0.2 + 0.3 +
0.1 = 0.6
= 2800000 - 800²
SD = √Var ≈ $ 1470
Hints:
For each assignment, the solution should be submitted in the below format.
1. Research and Perform all possible steps for obtaining the solution.
2. For Statistics calculations, an explanation of the solutions should be documented in detail
along with codes. Use the same word document to fill in your explanation.
Must follow these guidelines:
2.1 Be thorough with the concepts of Probability, Probability Distributions, Business
Moments, and Univariate & Bivariate visualizations.
2.2 For True/False Questions, or short answer type questions explanation is a must.
2.3 Python code for Univariate Analysis (histogram, box plot, bar plots, etc.) the data
distribution is to be attached.
3. All the codes (executable programs) should execute without errors
4. Code modularization should be followed
5. Each line of code should have comments explaining the logic and why you are using that
function
