Q1: A company states that their lightbulb lasts 20. 103 hours on average. A customer

association would like to test this hypothesis at the 5% level.

a) What is the parameter that the association wants to test?

b) Note that μ0 =20.103 ; what’s the hypothesis that the association is looking to test?

c) What does the type I error mean in this example?

d) What does the type II error mean in this example?

e) How do you interpret the significance level: 5%?

Answer 1

a) Average life of the population of light bulb

b) Association wants to test, µ≠20.103.

c) Type 1 error: Though the mean lifetime of a population of all the bulbs is actually

20.10³ hours, we reject it

d) Type two error: Accepting that the mean lifetime of a population of all the bulbs is

20.10³ hours though it is false.

e) Interpretation of 5% significance level: This is the 5% probability that the null

hypothesis. The mean lifetime of the population of all bulbs is 20.10³ hours is maybe

happened by chance.

Q2: The average height of a sample of 10 Canadians is 176 cm, and the variance of

population height is 100 cm 2

a) Should you reject the fact that the average height of Canadians is 170 cm, at the 5%

significance level?

b) Should you reject the fact the that the average height of Canadians is less than 170

cm, at the 5% significance level?

c) Calculate and interpret the p-value.

1
Answer 2

a) We should not reject the fact that the average height of a Canadian is 170 cm at a 5%

level of significance.

b) We should not reject the fact that the average height of a Canadian is 170 cm at a 5%

level of significance.

c) The p-value of the test is 0.97128 , which is high enough to not reject H0

a) Write the SQL query that produces the table below

2
Answer a)

SELECT

d.DeptName,

d.DeptNo,

e.LastName

FROM departments d

LEFT JOIN employee e

ON d.DeptNo = e.DeptNo;

b) Write the SQL query that produces the table below

Answer b)

SELECT

d.DeptName,

e.DeptNo,

e.LastName

FROM departments d

RIGHT JOIN employees e

ON e.DeptNo = d.DeptNo;
