Question 1 (10 points)
a) An outlier is a point more than _____1.5_________ IQR from either end of the box in a boxplot.
b) ________ σ _________ symbol represents the standard deviation o
f the population.
c) A numerical value used as a summary measure for a sample, such as sample mean, is known as a _________statistic___________
a) CarZ offers the cheapest car at cost of $5
b) Buylt has lowest median price with value of $6
c) Ace has the smallest range (max – min = 20-10 = 10)
Question 2 (10 points)
a) The Federal Election Commission (FEC) collects information about campaign contributions and disbursements for candidates and political committees each election cycle. A political action committee (PAC) is a committee formed to raise money for candidates and campaigns. A Leadership PAC is a PAC formed by a federal politician (senator or representative) to raise money to help other candidates’ campaigns. The FEC has reported financial information for 556 Leadership PACs that were operating during the 2011-2012 election cycle. A random selection of 26 Leadership PACs shows a mean of $251,854.23 with a sample standard deviation of $521,130.41. Use this information to construct a 96% confidence interval for the mean amount of money raised by all Leadership PACs during the 2011–2012 election cycle.
critical value, t(a/2,n-1) = t(0.04/2,26-1) = 2.167
CI = mean +- t(a/2,n-1)*(sd/sqrt(n))        
lower    = 251854.23 - 2.167*(521130.41/sqrt(26)) = 30382.32
upper    = 251854.23 + 2.167*(521130.41/sqrt(26)) = 473326.14
b)
Hence,    
P(0.25 < X < 2)
= P(Z<2) - P(Z<0.25)
= NORMSDIST(2) - NORMSDIST(0.25)
= 0.3785
