Problem

Local residents are concerned about the speed of cars travelling through their village. They record the speed, in km h−1\text{km h}^{-1}, of a random sample of 13 cars travelling through their village. The recorded speeds are as follows.

40, 53, 59, 42, 43, 48, 62, 67, 46, 82, 66, 45, 7040,\ 53,\ 59,\ 42,\ 43,\ 48,\ 62,\ 67,\ 46,\ 82,\ 66,\ 45,\ 70

(a) Construct a 90%90\% confidence interval for the population mean speed of cars passing through the village.

[5]

(b) State an assumption that is necessary for the confidence interval found in 1(a) to be valid.

[1]

当地居民担心穿过他们村庄的汽车车速。他们记录了一个由 13 辆穿过村庄的汽车组成的随机样本的速度,单位为 km h−1\text{km h}^{-1}。记录到的速度如下。

40, 53, 59, 42, 43, 48, 62, 67, 46, 82, 66, 45, 7040,\ 53,\ 59,\ 42,\ 43,\ 48,\ 62,\ 67,\ 46,\ 82,\ 66,\ 45,\ 70

(a) 构造穿过该村庄的汽车总体平均速度的 90%90\% 置信区间。

(5)

(b) 写出 1(a) 中所求置信区间有效所需的一个假设。

原卷通用作答要求

Answer all questions. You should use a calculator where appropriate.

You must show all necessary working clearly; no marks will be given for unsupported answers from a calculator.

Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place for angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question.

请回答所有题目。适当时应使用计算器。必须清楚展示所有必要的计算过程;仅给出计算器答案而没有过程,不予评分。除非题目另有精度要求,非精确数值答案保留 3 位有效数字,以度为单位的角度保留 1 位小数。

样本量较小且总体方差未知,使用自由度为 1212 的 tt 区间。先从样本求均值和无偏方差。

The sample has n=13n=13, ∑x=723\sum x=723 and ∑x2=42261\sum x^2=42261. Thus

 xˉ=72313, s2=42261−7232/1312=170.923076….\begin{align*} &\,\bar x=\frac{723}{13},\\ &\,s^2=\frac{42261-723^2/13}{12}=170.923076\ldots. \end{align*}

For a two-sided 90%90\% interval, the positive tt critical value with 1212 degrees of freedom is t0.95,12=1.782t_{0.95,12}=1.782. The interval is

 xˉ±1.782s213= 55.61538…±6.46154….\begin{align*} &\,\bar x\pm1.782\sqrt{\frac{s^2}{13}}\\ =&\,55.61538\ldots\pm6.46154\ldots. \end{align*}

The 90%90\% confidence interval is (49.2,62.1) km h−1(49.2,62.1)\,\mathrm{km}\,\mathrm{h}^{-1} to three significant figures.

小样本的 tt 区间需要对车速的总体分布作假设。

The population of speeds of cars passing through the village is assumed to be normally distributed.
