An interior automotive supplier places several electrical wires in a harness.Apull test measures the force required to pull spli

ced wires apart. A customer requires that each wire that is spliced into the harness withstand a pull force of 20 pounds. Let X equal the pull force required to pull a spliced wire apart. The following data give the values of a random sample of n 20 observations of X 28.8 24.4 30.1 25.6 26.4 23.9 22.1 22.5 27.6 28.1 20.8 27.7 24.4 25.1 24.6 26.3 28.2 22.2 26.3 24.4 (a) Construct a q-q plot, using the ordered array and the corresponding quantiles of N(O, 1) (b) Does X appear to have a normal distribution?

Answer:

a) For this case we can use the following R code to construct the qq plot

> data<-c(28.8, 24.4, 30.1, 25.6, 26.4, 23.9, 22.1, 22.5, 27.6, 28.1, 20.8, 27.7, 24.4, 25.1, 24.6, 26.3, 28.2, 22.2, 26.3, 24.4)

# The above line is in order to store the data in a vector

> qqnorm(data, pch = 1, frame = FALSE)

# The line above is in order to calculate the quantiles from the data assumin Normal distribution

> qqline(data, col = "steelblue", lwd = 2)

# The line above is in order to put a line for the theoretical dsitribution

The result is on the figure attached.

b) For this case as we can see on the figure attached the calculated quantiles are not far from the theorical quantiles given byt the straaigth blue line so then we can conclude that the distribution seems to be normal.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following data:

28.8, 24.4, 30.1, 25.6, 26.4, 23.9, 22.1, 22.5, 27.6, 28.1, 20.8, 27.7, 24.4, 25.1, 24.6, 26.3, 28.2, 22.2, 26.3, 24.4

The quantile-quantile or q-q plot is a graphical procedure in order to check the validity of a distributional assumption for a data set. We just need to calculate "the theoretically expected value for each data point based on the distribution in question".

If the values are asusted to the assumed distribution, we will see that "the points on the q-q plot will fall approximately on a straight line"

For this case our distribution assumed is normal.

Part a

For this case we can use the following R code to construct the qq plot

> data<-c(28.8, 24.4, 30.1, 25.6, 26.4, 23.9, 22.1, 22.5, 27.6, 28.1, 20.8, 27.7, 24.4, 25.1, 24.6, 26.3, 28.2, 22.2, 26.3, 24.4)

# The above line is in order to store the data in a vector

> qqnorm(data, pch = 1, frame = FALSE)

# The line above is in order to calculate the quantiles from the data assuming Normal distribution (0,1)

> qqline(data, col = "steelblue", lwd = 2)

# The line above is in order to put a line for the theoretical distribution

The result is on the figure attached.

Part b

For this case as we can see on the figure attached the calculated quantiles are not far from the theorical quantiles given byt the straaigth blue line so then we can conclude that the distribution seems to be normal.

To write it in function notation you'll convert it into a function, substituting y by f(x):


y = 3x - 8 = f(x) = 3x - 8
