The Wall Street Journal Corporate Perceptions Study 2011 surveyed readers and asked how each rated the Quality of Management and

the Reputation of the Company for over 250 world-wide corporations. Both the Quality of Management and the Reputation of the Company were rated on an Excellent, Good, and Fair categorical scale. Assume the sample data for 200 respondents below applies to this study.
Col1 Quality of Management Excellent Good Fair
Col2 Excellent 40 35 25
Col3 Good 25 35 10
Col4 Fair 5 10 15

Use a .05 level of significance and test for independence of the quality of management and the reputation of the company.
Compute the value of the 2 test statistic (to 2 decimals).

b. If there is a dependence or association between the two ratings, discuss and use probabilities to justify your answer.

Answer:

a)\chi^2 = \frac{(40-35)^2}{35}+\frac{(35-40)^2}{40}+\frac{(25-25)^2}{25}+\frac{(25-24.5)^2}{24.5}+\frac{(35-28)^2}{28}+\frac{(25-17.5)^2}{17.5}+\frac{(5-10.5)^2}{10.5}+\frac{(10-12)^2}{12}+\frac{(15-7.5)^2}{7.5} =17.03

p_v = P(\chi^2_{4} >17.03)=0.0019

And we can find the p value using the following excel code:

"=1-CHISQ.DIST(17.03,4,TRUE)"

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we can reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance, and we can conclude that we have association or dependence between the two variables.

b)

P(E|Ex)= P(EΛEx )/ P(Ex) = (40/215)/ (70/215)= 40/70=0.5714

P(E|Gx)= P(EΛGx )/ P(Gx) = (35/215)/ (80/215)= 35/80=0.4375

P(E|Fx)= P(EΛFx )/ P(Fx) = (25/215)/ (50/215)= 25/50=0.5

P(G|Ex)= P(GΛEx )/ P(Ex) = (25/215)/ (70/215)= 25/70=0.357

P(G|Gx)= P(GΛGx )/ P(Gx) = (35/215)/ (80/215)= 35/80=0.4375

P(G|Fx)= P(GΛFx )/ P(Fx) = (10/215)/ (50/215)= 10/50=0.2

P(F|Ex)= P(FΛEx )/ P(Ex) = (5/215)/ (70/215)= 5/70=0.0714

P(F|Gx)= P(FΛGx )/ P(Gx) = (10/215)/ (80/215)= 10/80=0.125

P(F|Fx)= P(FΛFx )/ P(Fx) = (15/215)/ (50/215)= 15/50=0.3

And that's what we see here almost all the conditional probabilities are higher than 0.2 so then the conclusion of dependence between the two variables makes sense.

Step-by-step explanation:

A chi-square goodness of fit test "determines if a sample data matches a population".

A chi-square test for independence "compares two variables in a contingency table to see if they are related. In a more general sense, it tests to see whether distributions of categorical variables differ from each another".

Assume the following dataset:

Quality management        Excellent      Good     Fair    Total

Excellent                                40                35         25       100

Good                                      25                35         10         70

Fair                                         5                   10          15        30

Total                                       70                 80         50       200

Part a

We need to conduct a chi square test in order to check the following hypothesis:

H0: There is independence between the two categorical variables

H1: There is association between the two categorical variables

The level of significance assumed for this case is \alpha=0.05

The statistic to check the hypothesis is given by:

\chi^2 = \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{(O_i -E_i)^2}{E_i}

The table given represent the observed values, we just need to calculate the expected values with the following formula E_i = \frac{total col * total row}{grand total}

And the calculations are given by:

E_{1} =\frac{70*100}{200}=35

E_{2} =\frac{80*100}{200}=40

E_{3} =\frac{50*100}{200}=25

E_{4} =\frac{70*70}{200}=24.5

E_{5} =\frac{80*70}{200}=28

E_{6} =\frac{50*70}{200}=17.5

E_{7} =\frac{70*30}{200}=10.5

E_{8} =\frac{80*30}{200}=12

E_{9} =\frac{50*30}{200}=7.5

And the expected values are given by:

Quality management        Excellent      Good     Fair       Total

Excellent                                35              40          25         100

Good                                      24.5           28          17.5        85

Fair                                         10.5            12           7.5         30

Total                                       70                 80         65        215

And now we can calculate the statistic:

\chi^2 = \frac{(40-35)^2}{35}+\frac{(35-40)^2}{40}+\frac{(25-25)^2}{25}+\frac{(25-24.5)^2}{24.5}+\frac{(35-28)^2}{28}+\frac{(25-17.5)^2}{17.5}+\frac{(5-10.5)^2}{10.5}+\frac{(10-12)^2}{12}+\frac{(15-7.5)^2}{7.5} =17.03

Now we can calculate the degrees of freedom for the statistic given by:

df=(rows-1)(cols-1)=(3-1)(3-1)=4

And we can calculate the p value given by:

p_v = P(\chi^2_{4} >17.03)=0.0019

And we can find the p value using the following excel code:

"=1-CHISQ.DIST(17.03,4,TRUE)"

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we can reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance, and we can conclude that we have association or dependence between the two variables.

Part b

We can find the probabilities that Quality of Management and the Reputation of the Company would be the same like this:

Let's define some notation first.

E= Quality Management excellent     Ex=Reputation of company excellent

G= Quality Management good     Gx=Reputation of company good

F= Quality Management fait     Ex=Reputation of company fair

P(EΛ Ex) =40/215=0.186

P(GΛ Gx) =35/215=0.163

P(FΛ Fx) =15/215=0.0697

If we have dependence then the conditional probabilities would be higher values.

P(E|Ex)= P(EΛEx )/ P(Ex) = (40/215)/ (70/215)= 40/70=0.5714

P(E|Gx)= P(EΛGx )/ P(Gx) = (35/215)/ (80/215)= 35/80=0.4375

P(E|Fx)= P(EΛFx )/ P(Fx) = (25/215)/ (50/215)= 25/50=0.5

P(G|Ex)= P(GΛEx )/ P(Ex) = (25/215)/ (70/215)= 25/70=0.357

P(G|Gx)= P(GΛGx )/ P(Gx) = (35/215)/ (80/215)= 35/80=0.4375

P(G|Fx)= P(GΛFx )/ P(Fx) = (10/215)/ (50/215)= 10/50=0.2

P(F|Ex)= P(FΛEx )/ P(Ex) = (5/215)/ (70/215)= 5/70=0.0714

P(F|Gx)= P(FΛGx )/ P(Gx) = (10/215)/ (80/215)= 10/80=0.125

P(F|Fx)= P(FΛFx )/ P(Fx) = (15/215)/ (50/215)= 15/50=0.3

And that's what we see here almost all the conditional probabilities are higher than 0.2 so then the conclusion of dependence between the two variables makes sense.

Solve for x,y, and z.
Ann [662]

The given triangle is isosceles, so the two remaining angles in the triangle both have measure <em>xº</em>. The interior angles of any triangle sum to 180º, so that

58º + <em>xº</em> + <em>xº</em> = 180º

58 + 2<em>x</em> = 180

2<em>x</em> = 122

<em>x</em> = 61

Angles <em>y</em> and <em>z</em> are supplementary to angle <em>x</em>, so that

<em>xº</em> + <em>yº</em> = 180º

and

<em>xº</em> + <em>zº</em> = 180º

and consequently, <em>y</em> = <em>z</em>. In particular, we get

<em>y</em> = 180 - 61

<em>y</em> = 119

and so

<em>z</em> = 119

A student is assessing the correlation between the number of workers in a factory and the number of units produced daily. The ta
lukranit [14]

The number of units produced increases from 2 to 452 as the number of factory workers increases from 0 to 90, which gives;

Part A:

  • Yes there is a strong positive correlation

Part B:

  • The function is <em>y</em> = 5•x + 2

Part C:

  • The slope indicates the number of units produced by each worker daily

  • The y-intercept indicates that two units can be produced without workers.

<h3>How can the existence of a correlation and the best fit function for the data be found?</h3>

Part A:

The correlation is the relationship between variables based on statistical data.

From the given table, the difference between consecutive terms of the <em>x </em>and y-values are constant, therefore as the x-values increases, the corresponding y-value increases.

Change in x-values, ∆x = 10 - 0 = 20 - 10 = 30 - 20 = 10

Change in y-values, ∆y = 52 - 2 = 102 - 52 = 152 - 102 = 50

Therefore;

  • There is a strong positive correlation between the number of workers, <em>x</em>, and the number of units produced, <em>y</em>.

Part B:

Given that the rate of change of the x-values is constant, and the rate of change of the y-values is a constant, the function relating the <em>x </em>and y-values is a linear function, which can be found as follows;

Slope of the equation, <em>m </em>= ∆y/∆x

Which gives;

m = 50/10 = 5

y - 2 = 5•(x - 0)

The function that best fits the data is therefore;

  • y = 5•x + 2

Part C:

The slope of the function is the coefficient of the variable <em>x </em>in the equation, <em>y </em>= m•x + c

  • The slope of the plot, 5, indicates that each worker produces 5 units daily

The y-intercept of the function is the value of the constant term, c, in the equation, y = m•x + c

  • The y-intercept of the linear equation, y = 5•x + 2, which is 2, indicates that the initial number of units of products at the factory before workers arrive is 2.
