Consider the accompanying data on flexural strength (mpa) for concrete beams of a certain type.

11.8 7.7 6.5 6.8 9.7 6.8 7.3
7.9 9.7 8.7 8.1 8.5 6.3 7.0
7.3 7.4 5.3 9.0 8.1 11.3 6.3
7.2 7.7 7.8 11.6 10.7 7.0
a) calculate a point estimate of the mean value of strength for the conceptual population of all beams manufactured in this fashion. [hint: ? xi = 219.5.] (round your answer to three decimal places.)
mpa

state which estimator you used.

(b) calculate a point estimate of the strength value that separates the weakest 50% of all such beams from the strongest 50%.
mpa

state which estimator you used.

s
x
p?
x tilde
s / x

(c) calculate a point estimate of the population standard deviation ? . [hint: ? xi2 = 1859.53.] (round your answer to three decimal places.)
mpa

interpret this point estimate.

this estimate describes the linearity of the data. this estimate describes the bias of the data. this estimate describes the spread of the data. this estimate describes the center of the data.

which estimator did you use?

x tilde
x
s
s / x
p?

(d) calculate a point estimate of the proportion of all such beams whose flexural strength exceeds 10 mpa. [hint: think of an observation as a "success" if it exceeds 10.] (round your answer to three decimal places.)

(e) calculate a point estimate of the population coefficient of variation ? /? . (round your answer to four decimal places.)

state which estimator you used.

)a grad student comes up with the following algorithm to sort an array a[1..n] that works by first sorting the first 2/3rds of the array, then sorting the last 2/3rds of the (resulting) array, and finally sorting the first 2/3rds of the new array. 1: function g-sort(a, n) . takes as input an array of n numbers, a[1..n] 2: g-sort-recurse(a, 1, n) 3: end function 4: function g-sort-recurse(a, `, u) 5: if u ⒠` ≤ 0 then 6: return . 1 or fewer elements already sorted 7: else if u ⒠` = 1 then . 2 elements 8: if a[u] < a[`] then . swap values 9: temp ↠a[u] 10: a[u] ↠a[`] 11: a[`] ↠temp 12: end if 13: else . 3 or more elements 14: size ↠u ⒠` + 1 15: twothirds ↠d(2 ◠size)/3e 16: g-sort-recurse(a, `, ` + twothirds ⒠1) 17: g-sort-recurse(a, u ⒠twothirds + 1, u) 18: g-sort-recurse(a, `, ` + twothirds ⒠1) 19: end if 20: end function first (5 pts), prove that the algorithm correctly sorts the numbers in the array (in increasing order). after showing that it correctly sorts 1 and 2 element intervals, you may make the (incorrect) assumption that the number of elements being passed to g-sort-recurse is always a multiple of 3 to simplify the notation (and drop the floors/ceilings).

Consider the following function main: int main() { int alpha[20]; int beta[20]; int matrix[10][4]; . . } a. write the definition of the function inputarray that prompts the user to input 20 numbers and stores the numbers into alpha. b. write the definition of the function doublearray that initializes the elements of beta to two times the corresponding elements in alpha. make sure that you prevent the function from modifying the elements of alpha. c. write the definition of the function copyalphabeta that stores alpha into the first five rows of matrix and beta into the last five rows of matrix. make sure that you prevent the function from modifying the elements of alpha and beta. d. write the definition of the function printarray that prints any onedimensional array of type int. print 15 elements per line. e. write a c11 program that tests the function main and the functions discussed in parts a through d. (add additional functions, such as printing a two-dimensional array, as needed.)
