A process that polishes a mirrored surface leaves an average of 3 small flaws per 8 m2 of surface. The number of flaws on an area of surface follows a Poisson distribution.
a) What is the probability that a surface with area 3 m 5 m will contain more than 5 flaws?
b) What is the probability that a surface with area 2 m 3 m will contain no flaws?
A teacher of statistics wanted to compare two methods of teaching introductory statistics. One method relied heavily on the teaching of the theory behind statistics (theory method). Another method was labeled the cookbook method because it consisted of teaching the students various statistical tests and informing them as to when to use each test. The researcher found that a leading engineering school was using the theory method in all of its introductory statistics classes and that a state teachers' college was using the cookbook method in all of its classes. At the end of each semester, he administered a standardized test on the applications of statistics to the statistics classes of both schools. The results of this testing indicated the classes that received the theory method was far superior to the classes that received the cookbook method. The researcher concluded that the theory method was the superior method and should be adopted by teachers of statistics.
What is the IV: Teaching method

1. An experiment randomly assigned 10 children to each of two groups. One group was given training in creative problem solving and the other was not. All children were then given a series of problems and asked to generate possible solutions. Below are the summary statistics for the number of solutions generated for both groups. Is there a signicant difference in the number of solutions generated between the training group and the group without training at a signicance level of .05?

It also displays the results to the user. - The function receives a list and obtains the average. minimum and maximum. The result returned is a list with three values.
