Mathematics

Description

Use complete and coherent sentences to answer the questions.

Graphs must be appropriately titled and should refer to the context of the question.

Graphical displays must include labels with units if appropriate for each axis.

Units should always be included when referring to numerical values.

When making a comparison you must use comparative language, such as “greater than”, “less than”, or “about the same as.”

Ensure that all graphs and tables appear on one page and are not split across two pages.

Type all mathematical calculations when directed to compute an answer ‘by-hand.’

Pictures of actual handwritten work are not accepted.

When writing mathematical expressions into your document you may use either an equation editor or common shortcuts such as: can be written as sqrt(x), can be written as p-hat, can be written as x-bar.

STAT 250 Fall 2018 Data Analysis Assignment 2 Your submitted document should include the following items. Points will be deducted if the following are not included. 1. Type your Name, STAT 250 with your correct section number (e.g. STAT 250-xxx) right justified and Data Analysis Assignment #2 centered on the top of page 1 of your document. 2. Number your pages across your entire solutions document. 3. Your document should include the ANSWERS ONLY with each answer labeled by its corresponding number and subpart. Keep the answers in order. Do NOT include the questions in your submitted document. 4. Generate all requested graphs and tables using StatCrunch. 5. Upload your document onto Blackboard as a Word or pdf document using the link provided by your instructor. Elements of good technical writing: Use complete and coherent sentences to answer the questions. Graphs must be appropriately titled and should refer to the context of the question.

We will use StatCrunch to simulate rolling two dice. Conduct the following simulation by using the steps below: a) Step 1: Under Applets → Simulation → Select Dice rolling from the menu. Step 2: In window, enter 6 for the number of sides and 2 for the number of dice. Step 3: Select Compute! Step 4: Select 1000 runs to simulate rolling the two dice 1000 times as shown below. The result of this simulation will appear as a bar graph. Step 5: Clear the box to the right of “Sum of 2 rolls” for part (a) (none of the bars in the chart will now be highlighted). Step 6: Copy your chart into your document for your answer to part (a). NOTE: You will use this result to answer parts (c) – (e). 2 Box 1: Use the down arrow to change the equality/inequality sign from >=, >, =,

Buddy, find the attached complete paper. Inside the word document, attach the images I have uploaded just below the parts written "sketch." Let me know if you have any question. Otherwise, goodbye for now

c) “Sum of 2 rolls equals 11”

The theoretical probability for “Sum of 2 rolls equal to 11” is 2/36 = 0.056
The probability from the simulation (0.05) is less than but close to the theoretical
probability; that is 0.05 < 0.056
d) “Sum of 2 rolls greater than or equal to 11”
The theoretical probability for “Sum of 2 rolls greater than or equal to 11” is
