2. Question 1: Pearson's PMCC Calculation and Test | 皮尔逊积矩相关系数计算与检验
ations: x = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and y = 2.1, 2.9, 4.2, 5.0, 5.8, 6.9, 8.1. First compute x̄ = 4, ȳ = 5.0, Sₓₓ = Σ(xᵢ − x̄)² = 28, Syy = Σ(yᵢ − ȳ)² ≈ 27.68 and Sxy = Σ(xᵢ − x̄)(yᵢ − ȳ) ≈ 27.6. The product‑moment correlation coefficient r = Sxy / √Sₓₓ Syy ≈ 27.6 / √28 × 27.68 ≈ 0.991.
研究者记录 7 对观测值:x = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 和 y = 2.1, 2.9, 4.2, 5.0, 5.8, 6.9, 8.1。先计算 x̄ = 4,ȳ = 5.0,Sₓₓ = Σ(xᵢ − x̄)² = 28,Syy ≈ 27.68,Sxy ≈ 27.6。积矩相关系数 r = Sxy / √Sₓₓ Syy ≈ 0.991。
To test H₀: ρ = 0 against H₁: ρ ≠ 0 at the 5% significance level, compare |r| with the critical value from the table for n = 7. The two‑ 1 > 0.7545, we reject H₀ and conclude there is significant evidence of linear correlation.
在 5% 显著性水平下检验 H₀: ρ = 0,H₁: ρ ≠ 0,将 |r| 与 n = 7 的临界值比较。双尾临界值为 0.7545。因为 0.991 > 0.7545,拒绝 H₀,即有显著证据表明存在线性相关。
r = Sxy / √Sₓₓ Syy = 27.6 / √28 × 27.68 ≈ 0.991
3. Question 2: Regression Line and Forecasting | 回归直线与预测
Using the same data, find the least‑squares regression line of y on x. The gradient b = Sxy / Sₓₓ = 27.6 / 28 ≈ 0.9857. The intercept a = ȳ − b x̄ = 5.0 − 0.9857×4 ≈ 1.057. Hence the equation is y = 1.057 + 0.986x (to 3 s.f.).
使用相同数据,求 y 对 x 的最小二乘回归线。斜率 b = Sxy / Sₓₓ = 27.6 / 28 ≈ 0.9857,截距 a = ȳ − b x̄ = 5.0 − 0.9857×4 ≈ 1.057。因此回归方程为 y = 1.057 + 0.986x(保留三位有效数字)。
943. The prediction is reasonably reliable because the correlation is very strong, but the x‑value lies just outside the original data range (extrapolation), so caution is advisable.
预测 x = 8 时的 y 值。代入得 y ≈ 1.057 + 0.9857×8 = 8.943。由于相关性极强,预测较为可信,但 x 值已在原始数据范围之外(外推),因此解读时应谨慎。
y = 1.057 + 0.986x, 预测值 (x=8) ≈ 8.94
4. Question 3: Poisson Goodness-of-Fit Test | 泊松分布拟合优度检验
downs → 50 days, 1 → 55, 2 → 30, 3 → 10, 4 or more → 5. Estimate λ from the sample mean: λ̂ λ = 1.2, calculate expected frequencies for 0, 1, 2, 3 and ≥4 from Poisson probabilities.
某工厂记录 150 天中每天机器故障次数。频数如下:0 次故障 → 50 天,1 → 55,2 → 30,3 → 10,4 次及以上 → 5。用样本均值估计 λ:λ̂ = (0×50+1×55+2×30+3×10+4×5)/150 = 1.2。取 λ = 1.2,根据泊松概率计算 0,1,2,3 和 ≥4 的期望频数。
| x | Observed O | P(X=x) | Expected E |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 50 | 0.3012 | 45.18 |
| 1 | 55 | 0.3614 | 54.21 |
| 2 | 30 | 0.2169 | 32.54 |
| 3 | 10 | 0.0867 | 13.01 |
| ≥4 | 5 | 0.0338 | 5.07 |
d; here all E ≥ 5, so no merging is required. Compute χ² = Σ(O−E)²/E = (50−45.18)²/45.18 + … 1.23. Degrees of freedom ν = 5 − 1 − 1 = 3 (classes minus 1 minus 1 parameter estimated).
必要时合并期望频数低于 5 的类别;本例所有 E ≥ 5,无需合并。计算 χ² = Σ(O−E)²/E ≈ 1.23。自由度 ν = 5 − 1 − 1 = 3(类别数减 1 再减估计参数个数)。
we do not reject H₀. The Poisson(1.2) distribution provides an adequate fit for the data.
取 α = 0.05,临界值 χ²₃ = 7.815。因 1.23 < 7.815,不拒绝 H₀,即泊松分布(λ=1.2)能充分拟合该数据。
χ² = 1.23, ν = 3, 临界值 = 7.815 → 不拒绝 H₀
5. Question 4: Chi-Squared Test for Association | 卡方独立性检验
= 45; Female preferring A = 60, Female preferring B = 40. Set up H₀: gender and preference are independent. Compute expected frequencies under independence: e.g. E(Male, A) = (100×115)/200 = 57.5.
一项 200 位顾客的调查按性别与产品偏好(A 或 B)分类。观察频数为:男性偏好 A = 55,偏好 B = 45;女性偏好 A = 60,偏好 B = 40。设 H₀:性别与偏好独立。在独立性假设下计算期望频数,例如 E(男,A) = (100×115)/200 = 57.5。
²/42.5 ≈ 0.109 + 0.147 + 0.109 + 0.147 = 0.512. Degrees of freedom = (2−1)(2−1) = 1. The 5% from χ²₁ is 3.841. Since 0.512 < 3.841, we retain H₀; there is no significant association.
检验统计量 χ² = Σ(O−E)²/E 计算得 0.512。自由度 = (2−1)(2−1) = 1。χ²₁ 在 5% 水平的临界值为 3.841。因 0.512 < 3.841,保留 H₀,即没有显著关联。
χ² = 0.512, ν = 1, p > 0.05 → 独立性成立
6. Question 5: Confidence Interval for Population Mean (σ known) | 总体均值的置信区间(σ已知)
A sample of 50 tubes yields a mean lifetime of x̄ = 72 hours. The population standard deviation is known to be σ = 8 hours. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the true mean μ. The formula is x̄ ± z₀.₀₂₅ × σ/√n. Here z₀.₀₂₅ = 1.960 from Normal tables.
随机抽取 50 根管子,得平均寿命 x̄ = 72 小时。已知总体标准差 σ = 8 小时。求总体均值 μ 的 95% 置信区间。公式为 x̄ ± z₀.₀₂₅ × σ/√n,其中 z₀.₀₂₅ = 1.960。
Standard error = σ/√n = 8/√50 .96 × 1.1314 ≈ 2.218. Hence the interval is 72 ± 2.218, i.e. (69.8, 74.2) hours. We are 95% confident that the true mean lifetime lies between 69.8 and 74.2 hours.
标准误 = 8/√50 ≈ 1.1314,误差幅度 = 1.96 × 1.1314 ≈ 2.218。置信区间为 72 ± 2.218,即 (69.8, 74.2) 小时。我们有 95% 的把握认为真实平均寿命介于 69.8 至 74.2 小时之间。
95% CI: 72 ± 1.96 × 8/√50 = (69.8, 74.2)
7. Question 6: Binomial Hypothesis Test (One-Tailed) | 二项分布假设检验(单尾)
A manufacturer claims that at least 90% of its components are fault‑ inspected, revealing 2 defectives. Test at α = 0.05 whether the true proportion p of fault‑free items is less than 0.9. H₀: p = 0.9, H₁: p < 0.9. Under H₀, the number of fault‑free items X ~ B(20, 0.9).
某厂商声称至少 90% 的元件无故障。抽取 20 件检验,发现 2 件有缺陷。在 α = 0.05 下检验无故障比例 p 是否小于 0.9。H₀: p = 0.9,H₁: p < 0.9。在 H₀ 下,无故障元件数 X ∼ B(20, 0.9)。
The observed fault‑free count is 18. The p‑value = P(X ≤ 18 | ual exact cumulative gives around 0.677). Since 0.677 > 0.05, we do not reject H₀. The evidence is insufficient to claim the proportion is below 90%.
观察到的无故障数为 18。p 值 = P(X ≤ 18 | p=0.9)。查表或计算:P(X=20)≈0.1216,P(X=19)≈0.2702,P(X=18)≈0.2852,故 P(X ≤ 18) ≈ 0.677。因为 0.677 > 0.05,不拒绝 H₀,即证据不足以声称比例低于 90%。
X ~ B(20, 0.9), P(X ≤ 18) ≈ 0.677 > 0.05 → 不拒绝 H₀
8. Question 7: Spearman's Rank Correlation | 斯皮尔曼等级相关系数
alculate the difference d in ranks, square: d² values: 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0. Σd² = 4. Spearman's rank coefficient rs = 1 − [6Σd² / n(n²−1)] = 1 − (6×4) / (6×35) = 1 − 24/210 = 1 − 0.1143 = 0.8857.
六位学生由两位评委就其表达技能排序(1 为最优)。配对秩为 (1,2), (2,1), (3,4), (4,3), (5,5), (6,6)。计算秩差 d 及 d²:1,1,1,1,0,0,Σd² = 4。斯皮尔曼等级相关系数 rs = 1 − [6Σd² / n(n²−1)] = 1 − 24/210 ≈ 0.886。
For n = 6, the two‑tailed 5% critical value for rs is 0.886 (exact from table). This is a borderline result. Since rs tly we do not reject H₀ of no correlation; the agreement is not quite significant at the 5% level. In an exam, state the comparison clearly.
对于 n=6,双尾 5% 临界值通常为 0.886。rs = 0.8857 略低于临界值,严格来说不能拒绝无相关的原假设;在 5% 水平下一致性尚不显著。答题时需明确说明这一比较。
rs = 0.886 (approx), 临界值 = 0.886 → 临界边缘,不拒绝 H₀
9. Question 8: Continuous Random Variable and PDF | 连续随机变量与概率密度函数
er the domain to equal 1. ∫₀² kx(2−x) dx = k ∫₀² (2x − x²) dx = k [x² − x³/3]₀² = k (4 − 8/3) = (4/3)k = 1 ⇒ k = 3/4.
连续随机变量 X 的概率密度函数为 f(x) = kx(2 − x),0 ≤ x ≤ 2,其余为零。由全域积分等于 1 可得 k。∫₀² kx(2−x) dx = k [x² − x³/3]₀² = k(4 − 8/3) = (4/3)k = 1,故 k = 3/4。
)x³ − x⁴/4]₀² = (3/4)[(16/3) − 4] = (3/4)(16/3 − 12/3) = (3/4)(4/3) = 1. So the mean is 1.
接着求 ) dx = (3/4)∫₀² (2x² − x³) dx = (3/4)[(2/3)x³ − x⁴/4]₀² = (3/4)[(16/3)−4] = (3/4)(4/3) = 1。均值为 1。
32/5] = (3/4)[8 − 6.4] = (3/4)(1.6) = 1.2. Then Var(X) = E(X²) − [E(X)]² = 1.2 − 1 = 0.2.
为求方差,先算 E(X²) = (3/4)∫₀² (2x³ − x⁴) dx = (3/4)[(1/2)x⁴ − x⁵/5]₀² = (3/4)[8 − 6.4] = 1.2。方差 Var(X) = E(X²) − [E(X)]² = 1.2 − 1 = 0.
