Help for this spreadsheet • Review 2.2, 3.1 – 3.3 of your text. Also watch Excel Videos in BlackBoard. • Your data is already copied into columns A and B. • Only cells in yellow need to be completed. • Choose a class width according to the following equation (rounded up to whole number): CLASS WIDTH = (MAX VALUE - MIN VALUE)/# of Classes (5) • The ogive and polygon graphs need to be included on this page under the headers below. Please do not put them on a separate page.
Week 5
| Note: The goal of the project is to practice making a confidence interval for a mean and proportion with real data. Do not worry about failed assumptions tests and do not make corrections for small sample size. Use primary methods described in text and used on homework. | |||||||||||||

Help for this spreadsheet • Review 8.2 of your text as well as the Project Help tab below for the first confidence interval calculation (mean). Also watch Excel videos in BlackBoard. • Review 8.3 of your text as well as the Project Help tab below for the second confidence interval calculation (proportion). Also watch Excel videos in BlackBoard. • "Show Your Calculation" - these cells should list the numbers and operations used to get your answers. Do not just put the general formula and show all calculation steps. Do not put "=" in formulas so I can see the formula by just looking at the cell, not opening it. • For the "Interpret" text, what can we conclude about the population mean age and the population male proportion of online students with respect to these bounds? • Your data for Columns A and B will link from the Week 3 tab on this spreadsheet - no need to re-input! • The green cells (G3 and G4) will link from the Week 3 tab on this spreadsheet. • Only cells that are yellow need to be completed. • Please note rounding for calculations!

Helps for this spreadsheet: § Review 9.1 of your text as well as the Project Help tab below for stating your null and alternate hypotheses. § Review 9.3 of your text as well as the Project Help tab below to do a hypothesis test for a population mean. Also watch the Excel videos. § Review 9.4 of your text as well as the Project Help tab below to do a hypothesis test for a population proportion. Also watch the Excel videos. § "Show Your Calculation" - these cells should list the numbers and operations used to get your answers. Do not just put the general formula and show all calculation steps. Do not put "=" in formulas so I can see the formula by just looking at the cell, not opening it. • For the "Interpret" text, what can we conclude about the null hypothesis with respect to the evidence produced by the hypothesis test? What does this mean about the average age and male proportion of all online college students? § The green cells (E8 and E9) will link from the Week 3 tab on this spreadsheet. § The green cells (F24 and J24) will link from the Week 5 tab on this spreadsheet. § Only cells that are yellow need to be completed. § Please note rounding for calculations!
