2 Practice For an SAT test  = 500  = 100
What is the probability that a sample of 65 people will have a mean SAT score below 525?

3 Step 1: Sketch out question

4 Step 2: Calculate the Standard Error
100 / 65 = 12.40

5 Step 3: Calculate the Z score
( ) / = 2.02

6 Step 4: Look up Z score in Table
Z = 2.02; Column B =.4783 .50 .4783

7 Practice There is a probability that a sample of 65 people would have a mean SAT under 525

8 Practice In a large corporation, the mean salary for all males with 3 to 5 years of experience was $28,000. Salaries (expressed in thousands) for a random sample of 10 women also having 3 to 5 years of experience were: 24, 27, 31, 21, 19, 26, 30, 22, 15, 36 Construct the 95% confidence interval for women and interpret what this means relative to the mean salary of males.

9 Practice M = 25.1 SE = 1.97 t(9) = 2.262 20.64 to 29.56 20,640 to 29,560

10 Practice Old book New book – 8.29

11

12 Practice SE = 1.0 t = 2.064 T1 = 5.936 to 10.064 T2 = 3.936 to 8.064

13

14 Practice On the next test I will give an A to the top 5 percent of this class. The average test grade is with a SD of 6.98. How many points on the test did you need to get to get an A?

15 Step 1: Sketch out question
.05

16 Step 2: Look in Table C In column C get as close to .05 as you can and find the corresponding Z score = 1.64 .05

17 Step 3: Find the X score that goes with the Z score
Must solve for X X =  + (z)() 68.26 = (1.64)(6.98)

18 Step 3: Find the X score that goes with the Z score
Must solve for X X =  + (z)() 68.26 = (1.64)(6.98) Thus, a you need a score of to get an A

19 Practice 6.22

20 Practice X = Stanford-Binet Y = WAIS b = .80 (15 / 16) = .75
Y = 25 + (.75)X 73.75 = 25 + (.75)65 It’s a bad idea to use the same cut off score for these two tests

21 Practice 6.5

22 Practice Page 96 # 5.5 r = .51

23 Practice Old book and 8.13 New book – 8.11 and 8.12

24 N 1 2 4 8 .5 16 .25 64 .125 As N (sample size) increases the standard error decreases!

25 NO CLASS ON FRIDAY 10/7
