Practice exercises

Example 0.5 Use a calculator to determine what percentile corresponds to a Z-

score of 1.5.

Always ﬁrst sketch a graph:

−3 −2 −1 0 1 2 3

To ﬁnd an area under the normal curve using a calculator, ﬁrst identify a lower bound

and an upper bound. Theoretically, we want all of the area to the left of 1.5, so the

left endpoint should be -∞. However, the area under the curve is nearly negligible

when Z is smaller than -4, so we will use -5 as the lower bound when not given a

lower bound (any other negative number smaller than -5 will also work). Using a

lower bound of -5 and an upper bound of 1.5, we get P (Z < 1.5) = 0.933.

Guided Practice 0.6 Find the area under the normal curve to right of Z = 2.

Guided Practice 0.7 Find the area under the normal curve between -1.5 and 1.5.

Example 0.8 Use a calculator to ﬁnd the Z-score that corresponds to the 40th

percentile.

Letting Area be 0.40, a calculator gives -0.253. This means that Z = −0.253 corre-

sponds to the 40th percentile, that is, P (Z < −0.253) = 0.40.

Guided Practice 0.9 Find the Z-score such that 20 percent of the area is to the

right of that Z-score.

normalcdf gives the result without drawing the graph. To draw the graph, do 2nd VARS, DRAW,

1:ShadeNorm. However, beware of errors caused by other plots that might interfere with this plot.

Now we want to shade to the right. Therefore our lower bound will be 2 and the upper bound will be

+5 (or a number bigger than 5) to get P (Z > 2) = 0.023.

Here we are given both the lower and the upper bound. Lower bound is -1.5 and upper bound is 1.5.

The area under the normal curve between -1.5 and 1.5 = P (−1.5 < Z < 1.5) = 0.866.

If 20% of the area is the right, then 80% of the area is to the left. Letting area be 0.80, we get

Z = 0.841.

conﬁdence interval for the diﬀerence in proportion of dogs with cancer that have

been exposed to 2,4-D versus not exposed to 2,4-D.

> 0.

Correctly going through the calculator steps should lead to an interval of (0.01484, 0.11926). There is

no value given for the pooled proportion since we do not pool for conﬁdence intervals.

Correctly going through the calculator steps should lead to a solution with Z = 2.55 and p-value =

0.0055. The pooled proportion is ˆp = 0.342.

1. Navigate to STAT (MENU button, then hit the 2 button or select STAT).

2. Enter the x and y data into 2 separate lists, e.g. x values in List 1 and y

values in List 2. Observation ordering should be the same in the two lists.

For example, if (5, 4) is the second observation, then the second value in the

x list should be 5 and the second value in the y list should be 4.

3. Navigate to CALC (F2) and then SET (F6) to set the regression context.

• To change the 2Var XList, navigate to it, select List (F1), and enter

the proper list number. Similarly, set 2Var YList to the proper list.

4. Hit EXIT.

5. Select REG (F3), X (F1), and a+bx (F2), which returns:

a b

, the y-intercept of the best ﬁt line

b b

, the slope of the best ﬁt line

r r, the correlation coeﬃcient

, the explained variance

MSe Mean squared error, which you can ignore

If you select ax+b (F1), the a and b meanings will be reversed.

Guided Practice 0.23 The table contains values of federal spending per capita

(rounded to the nearand percent of population in poverty for seven counties. This is

a subset of a data set from Chapter 1. Use a calculator to ﬁnd the equation of the

least squares regression line for this partial data set.

Linear regression t-test

Casio fx-9750GII: Linear regression t-test on β

1. Navigate to STAT (MENU button, then hit the 2 button or select STAT).

2. Enter your data into 2 lists.

3. Select TEST (F3), t (F2), and REG (F3).

4. If needed, update the sidedness of the test and the XList and YList lists.

The Freq should be set to 1.

5. Hit EXE, which returns:

t t statistic b b

, slope of the line

p p-value s st. dev. of the residuals

df degrees of freedom for the test r r, correlation coeﬃcient

a b

, y-intercept of the line r

, explained variance

a = 5.136 and b = 1.056, therefore ˆy = 5.136 + 1.056x.
