final exam


PRESENT THE RESULTS OF THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS IN A TABULAR FORM AND INTERPRET.
1.        A standardized Mathematics test was given to fourth-grade children in five schools in each of the three Paranaque school districts.  The mean score for each school district follows:

District 1
District 2
District 3
59
58
55
68
63
79
77
72
52
70
55
77
79
80
66

Use the 0.05 level of significance to test the claim that there is no difference in the mean scores from each school district. 


2.       A newspaper publisher trying to pinpoint  his market’s  characteristics, wondered whether newspaper readership in the community is related to reader’s educational achievement.  A survey questioned adults in the area on their level of education and their frequency of readership.  The results are shown in the following table.  Use 0.01 significance level.

3.       A class adviser was interested in determining the relationship between the Mathematics grades and Chemistry grades of the top 10 junior students.  She gathered the following data.
Student                                                Mathematics Grade(X)                  Chemistry Grade (Y)
1                                                              84                                                           85
2                                                              89                                                           88
3                                                              84                                                           83
4                                                              86                                                           86
5                                                              84                                                           85
6                                                              84                                                           88
7                                                              87                                                           89
8                                                              94                                                           93
9                                                              88                                                           84
10                                                           85                                                           84

Compute the coefficient of correlation and determine whether there is significant relationship between the two scores at 0.01 level of significance.

4.       A group of 50 college freshmen was randomly assigned to experimental and control groups to determine the effectiveness of a counselling program upon academic averages.  Use any method to test the null hypothesis that there was no difference between the academic performance of the experimental and control groups at the 0.05 level of significance.  Use the data in the following table.
Experimental                                                     Control
                                                                2.10                                                        2.01

                                                                2.98                                                        2.77
                                                                3.10                                                        3.09
                                                                3.69                                                        2.72
                                                                2.66                                                        3.34

                                                                3.20                                                        1.70
                                                                1.71                                                        1.57
                                                                3.04                                                        1.39

5.       A researcher wants to compare the problems met by teachers and head teachers in relation to administration and supervision.  She uses 27 teachers and 18 head teachers as her samples.  The questionnaire and their respective answers are collated and presented.  Test if significant difference exists between the problems met by teachers and head teachers at 0.05 level.
