Problem-1
A physiotherapist with a male football team is interested in studying the relationship between foot injuries
and positions at which the players play. The data collected is summarized in the table below, Answer the
questions based on the table.

Striker Forward Attacking Midfielder Winger Total


Players Injured 45 56 24 20 145
Players Not Injured 32 38 11 9 90
Total 77 94 35 29 235

1.1 What is the probability that a randomly chosen player would suffer an injury?
From the given table we can see that the, number of players injured is 145, and the total number of
players is 235. Hence the probability that a randomly chosen player is injured is;

P (Injured) = 145/235 = 0.617

1.2 What is the probability that a player is a forward or a winger?


pranshutyagi1772@[Link]
Total number of players that are forwards or wingers is 123 (94 + 29), and total number of players under
NCODUI6ZVE
study is 235. Hence, the probability that a randomly chosen player is a forward or a winger is;

P (Forward OR Winger) = (94+29)/235 = 0.523

1.3 What is the probability that a randomly chosen player plays in a striker
position and has a foot injury?
Note that this is a joint probability problem, where two conditions are being satisfied simultaneously. The
number of players who have a foot injury and who play in striker position is 45. The total number of
players under consideration is 235. Hence the probability that a player is a striker and is injured is;

P (Striker AND Injured) = 45/235 = 0.1914

1.4 What is the probability that a randomly chosen injured player is a striker?
Note that this is a conditional probability problem, because not all players and considered. Given that
the chosen player is injured we need to find the probability that he is a striker. Since there are 145
injured players. The conditional probability is;

P (Striker|Injured) = 45/145 = 0.310

P (Human Error) = P (Radiation Leak AND Human Error)/ P (Radiation Leak | Human Error)
= 0.0012/0.1 = 0.012

Problem-2
The breaking strength of gunny bags used for packaging cement is normally distributed with a mean of
5 kg per sq. centimetre and standard deviation of 1.5 kg per sq. centimetre. The quality team of the
cement company wants to know the following about the packaging material to better understand
wastage or pilferage within the supply chain; Answer the questions below based on the given
information; (Provide appropriate visual representation of your answers, without which marks will be
deducted)

2.1 What proportion of the gunny bags have a breaking strength less than 3.17 kg
per sq cm?
Using the mean and the standard deviation of the normal distribution, we need to find the probability of a
gunny bag having a breaking strength less than 3.17 kg per sq cm.(cumulative probability calculated using
[Link] function).

P (Breaking strength < 3.17) = 0.1112

2.2 What proportion of the gunny bags have a breaking strength at least 3.6 kg per
sq cm.?
Using the mean and the standard deviation of the normal distribution, we need to find the probability
of a gunny bag having a breaking strength at least 3.6 kg per sq cm.

P (Breaking strength > 3.6) = 1 – 0.1753 = 0.8247

2.3 What proportion of the gunny bags have a breaking strength between 5
and 5.5 kg per sq cm.?
Using the mean and the standard deviation of the normal distribution, we need to find the probability
of a gunny bag having a breaking strength between 5kg per sq cm and 5.5 kg per sq cm.

P (5 < Breaking strength < 5.5) = 0.6306 – 0.5 = 0.1306


(Cumulative probability calculated using [Link] function).

2.4 What proportion of the gunny bags have a breaking strength NOT
between 3 and 7.5 kg per sq cm.?
Using the mean and the standard deviation of the normal distribution, we need to find the probability
of a gunny bag having a breaking strength.

P ([Breaking strength < 3] or [Breaking strength > 7.5)

= P (Breaking strength < 3) + P (Breaking strength > 7.5)

= 0.0912 + (1 – 0.9522) = 0.0912 + 0.0478 = 0.1390


Another way of arriving at the same solution is to compute

1 – P (3 < Breaking strength < 7.5)

Problem-3
Zingaro stone printing is a company which pecializes in printing images or patterns on polished or
unpolished stones. However, for optimum level of printing of the image the stone surface has to have a
Brinell’s hardness index of at least 150. Recently, Zingaro has received a batch of polished and unpolished
pranshutyagi1772@[Link]
NCODUI6ZVE stones from its clients. Use the data provided to answer the following (assuming 5% significance level);

3. 1 How does the hardness of implants vary depending on dentists?


The hypothesis test is formulated as below,
H0 = The population mean BHI for unpolished stones is at least 150 or (µu ≥ 150)

H1 = The population mean BHI for unpolished stones is at least 150 or (µu < 150)

Looking at the Hypothesis formulation, it can be observed that this is a left tailed test with a Level of
Significance 0.05 (α = 5%).
Output –

As observed above, since the numerical value of the test statistic is smaller than the critical value,
the P-value is smaller than the level of significance. Hence, the Null Hypothesis that the unpolished
stone surfaces have an average BHI of at least 150 is rejected.
Zingero is justified in concluding that the unpolished stones are not suitable for optimal level of
printing.

3. 2 Is the mean hardness of the polished and unpolished stones the
same?
H0: The population mean BHI for Polished stones and Unpolished stones is equal

(µp = µu) or (µp - µu =0)

H1: The population mean BHI for Polished stones and Unpolished stones is not equal

(µp ≠ µu) or (µp - µu ≠ 0)


Note that this is a two-tailed test with a Level of Significance of 0.05 (α = 5%). Output -

Note that the test statistic is larger than the upper critical value and hence the P-value is smaller
than the level of significance. The Null Hypothesis that the polished stone surfaces have a BHI equal
to that of the unpolished stones will be rejected.
Average hardness of the polished and the unpolished stones is not equal.

Problem- 4
The hardness of metal implant in dental cavities depend on multiple factors, such as the method of implant,
pranshutyagi1772@[Link]
the temperature at which the metal is treated, the alloy used as well as on the dentists who may favour one
NCODUI6ZVE method above another and may work better in his/her favourite method. Response is the variable of interest.

4.1 How does the hardness of implants vary depending on dentists?


Solution-

Hypothesis test formulation for Alloy 1


H01: The mean implant hardness is the same across different dentists with type 1 alloy. HA1: Mean
implant hardness is different for at least one pair of the dentists with type 1 alloy.
Hypothesis test formulation for Alloy 2
H02: The mean implant hardness is the same across different dentists with type 2 alloy. HA2: Mean
implant hardness is different for at least one pair of the dentists with type 2 alloy.

For one dentist, p-value is smaller than 0.05. We will proceed with ANOVA.

Test of Normality (Shapiro) for Type 1 Alloy for Method variable


In none of the cases, p-value is smaller than 0.05. Hence normality assumption is satisfied

Test of Normality (Shapiro) for Type 2 Alloy for Method variable


For one dentist, p-value is smaller than 0.05. We will proceed with ANOVA.
Levene test of equal variance for Type 1 and Type 2 Alloy for Method variable

Form above result for both alloy 1 and alloy 2 p value is less than 0.05 we can conclude that
the variances are not equal

Levene test of equal variance for Type 1 and Type 2 Alloy for Dentist variable

Form above result for both alloy 1 and alloy 2 p value is greater than 0.05 we can conclude that
the variances are equal.

Since the level of significance is 5%, we can check from the below ANOVA output arrived at by using
the anova_lm function from scipy. stats.

Hypothesis test formulation for Alloy 1

H01: The mean implant hardness is the same across different dentists with type 1 alloy. HA1:

Mean implant hardness is different for at least one pair of the dentists with type 1 alloy.

Since p-value is greater than 0.05, we fail to reject the null hypothesis of equality.
pranshutyagi1772@[Link]
NCODUI6ZVE Hypothesis test formulation for Alloy 2

H02: The mean implant hardness is the same across different dentists with type 2 alloy. HA2:

Mean implant hardness is different for at least one pair of the dentists with type 2 alloy.

Since p-value is greater than 0.05, we fail to reject the null hypothesis of equality.

As Null Hypothesis is not rejected, so no need to do post hoc test Tukey HSD
