  • It is 2075 and Stella, an amateur astronomer, recently was watching rocket launches on a Saturday and Sunday at the newly completed spaceport in Arizona. She knows that the mean burn time for launches on Saturday is 94 seconds with a standard deviation of 35 seconds and for Sunday the launches have a mean of 110 seconds with a standard deviation of 26 seconds. The distributions of both days are normally distributed. Round answers to 4 places.


    What type of data is Stella measuring?




    • Categorical, Nominal

    • Categorical, Ordinal

    • Numerical, Continuous

    • Numerical, Discrete




    The first launch of the day on Saturday had a burn time of 130. Calculate the z-score of this launch.


    The first launch of the day on Sunday had a burn time of 33. Calculate the z-score of this launch.


    Which launch would be considered more unusual?




    • Saturday's Launch and Sunday's Launch are Equally Unlikely

    • Sunday Launch

    • Saturday Launch




    At the end of the day on Sunday, Stella saw several launches with a burn time 6-8 standard deviations greater than what is normally seen on that day and she knew it would skew the distribution. Which direction would this skew be?




    • Neither

    • Right

    • Left
