Descriptive Statistics

You work for company that is seeking to introduce a new type of automobile to the world

market. However, in road testing of the prototype, product drive tester have complained about

excessive noise inside the vehicle. This concerning since the company is close to the launch date

of the vehicle-and an obvious quality deficiency could lead to a public relations disaster, a

massive recall, and finally, the collapse of the company. The Director of Engineering has asked

you to evaluate this problem. You have been given a spreadsheet of data that includes noise

measurement inside the automobile prototype as well as comparison measures taken for an Audi,

a BMW, and a Volkswagen

Take the data for the attached spreadsheet and carry out the following analysis:

1. Use RAND, RANDBETWEEN or the sampling function for the data analysis add-in to

take a random sample of 50 from each column of noise data (idle 50, 80, 100, 120,

140km).

2. Create a descriptive statistic from the population noise data as well as the sample noise

data for each vehicle

3. Given what you find in the descriptive statistics, particularly mean and the standard

deviation, what does the data suggest regarding the noise level of the prototype care and

the other three cars already in production

4. Is there any difference between the analysis of the random sample data and the complete

population of nose measures? Describe your findings and provide any explanation you

have for any perceived differences.

5. Does the data from the sample of the population follow normal distribution? What role

does this play in the analysis of the data?


6. Create a 3 page report summarizing your analysis, conclusion, and recommendations,

including your view on whether the noise levels of the new car are likely to be

acceptable.
