By using SPSS to form 2x2 cross classification table of Habit by health condition. If a person is selected
randomly from this sample of 30 people, evaluate the probabilities of the following events.
(a) The person is smoker.
(b) The person is a non-smoker.
(c) The person has cancer.
(d) The person has heart problem.
(e) The person has good health.
(f) The person is a smoker and has cancer.
(g) The person is a smoker and has heart problem.
(h) The person is a non-smoker and has cancer.
(i) The person is smoker given that he has cancer.
(j) The person is in good health given that he is a smoker.
Probability distribution:
15. A showroom record of the sales of a car brand shows that 40 percent of customers use cheques as a mode of
payment. It is expected that following one of their clearance sales advertisement on the TV, 5 customers will
purchase cars on the following day. Use SPSS
To construct the probability distribution of the number of customers who make their payment by
cheque.
To plot these probabilities in a histogram.
To find the following probabilities:
(a) P(at most 3 customers make their payment by cheque)
(b) P(exactly 3 customers make their payment by cheque)
(c) P(at least 3 customers make their payment by cheque)
(d) P(more than 4 customers make their payment by cheque)
(e) P(less than 3 customers make their payment by cheque)
(f) P(more than 2 and less than or equal to 5 customers make their payment by cheque)
Also, calculate mean, variance and the standard deviation of the number of customers making their payment
by cheque.
16. The marketing manager of a mail order company has noted that, on average, she receives 10 complaint calls
from customers during a 5-day working week. She has also noted that the calls occur at random. Use SPSS
To construct the probability distribution of the number of complaint calls in a single day for up to 15
complaints.
To plot these probabilities in a histogram.
To find the following probabilities
(a) P(at most 12 complaint calls in a week)
(b) P(exactly 9 complaint calls in a week)
(c) P(at least 8 complaint calls in a week)
(d) P(more than 2 complaint calls in a week)
(e) P(less than complaint calls in a week)
(f) P(more than 1 and less than or equal to 5 complaint calls in a week)
Also, calculate the mean, variance and the standard deviation of the number of complaints calls in a single
day.
Continuous probability distribution: Normal distribution
16. Ten thousand candidates appeared in a certain examination carrying a maximum of 100 marks. It was found
that the marks were normally distributed with a mean 39.5 and standard deviation 12.5. Determine
approximately the number of candidates who secured a first class for which the minimum of 60 marks.
17. The heights of two years old are normally distributed with a mean height of 81cm and a standard deviation
of 3.4 cm. Paediatricians regularly measures the heights of toddlers to determine whether there is a
problem. There may be a problem when the child is in the top or bottom 5% of heights.
(a) What is the probability that a two-year old child will be taller than 90cm?
(b) What is the probability that a two-year old child will be shorter than 85cm?

19. Twelve secretaries at a university were asked to take a special three days intensive course to improve their
keyboarding skills. At the beginning and again at the end of the course, they were given a particular two-
page letter and asked to type it flawlessly. The data shown in the following table were recorded.
Typist Number of years of Improvement (words
experience, X per minute) Y
A 2 9
B 6 11
C 3 8
D 8 12
E 10 14
F 5 9
G 10 14
H 11 13
I 12 14
J 9 10

(a) Find the equation of the regression line.
(b) As a check of your calculations in part (a), plot the 12 points and graph the line.
(c) Does it appear that the secretaries experience is linearly related to their improvement?
ANOVA
20. Seven samples of individuals were selected randomly from three communities. The ages of the persons were
as tabulated:
Community A Community B Community C
16 65 45
15 43 30
25 77 22
30 90 66
39 82 47
20 69 33
16 73 50
Use SPSS to carry out the ANOVA and is there a significant difference in the ages?
21. You are given the following data:
(a) Test to determine whether the treatment means differ. (Use 0.05)
(b) Test to determine whether the block means differ. (Use 0.05)
(c) Perform a Tukey test, if you found a significant F.
Block Treatment

A 7 12 8
B 10 8 9
C 12 16 13
